Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Liver Failure
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
fecal microbiota transplantation: The fecal bacteria were transplanted once every 5 days for a total of 4 times
Study summary
To investigate the safety, adverse reactions and therapeutic effects of fecal microbiota transplantation on patients with liver failure;to investigate the effect of fecal microbiota transplantation on the intestinal microecology and "gut-liver axis immune system" of liver failure, and further optimization of fecal microbiota transplantation technology.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Liver function change — Blood samples were collected 1 week before faecal bacteria transplantation, and followed up at 5 day, 10 day, 15 day, 20 day, 4 and 8 weeks after faecal bacteria transplantation, respectively
The investigators need to monitor the changes in liver and kidney function before and after faecal bacteria transplantation,such as ALT、AST、GGT 、TBIL(The units of these indices are U/L). - Coagulation function change — Blood samples were collected 1 week before faecal bacteria transplantation, and followed up at 5 day, 10 day, 15 day, 20 day, 4 and 8 weeks after faecal bacteria transplantation, respectively
Prothrombin activity are one of the indexes to evaluate the degree of liver failure in patients.The units of this indices is %. - Model for end-stage liver disease score change — Model for end-stage liver disease score were obtained separately in 1 week before faecal bacteria transplantation, and to access once again at 5 day, 10 day, 15 day, 20 day, 4 and 8 weeks after faecal bacteria transplantation, respectively
The model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score is a prospectively developed and validated scale for the severity of end-stage liver disease.The higher the MELD score, the more severe the liver disease and the greater the risk of death. The fatality rate of patients with MELD between 20 and 30 was more than 30%, that of patients with MELD between 30 and 40 was more than 50%, and that of patients with MELD \>40 was more than 70%. - gut microbiota change — Fecal samples were collected 1 week before faecal bacteria transplantation, and change from at 5 day, 10 day, 15 day, 20 day, 4 and 8 weeks after faecal bacteria transplantation, respectively
Gene sequencing and metabonomics analysis of fecal flora. - Observe the clinical manifestations, safety and adverse reactions of the patients — These indicators were collected 1 week before faecal bacteria transplantation, and change from at 5 day, 10 day, 15 day, 20 day, 4 and 8 weeks after faecal bacteria transplantation, respectively
Safety and adverse events were assessed including fever, diarrhea and elevated inflammatory markers (such as C-reactive protein and procalcitonin) before and after faecal bacteria transplantation. - proinflammatory cytokine change — Blood samples were collected 1 week before faecal bacteria transplantation, and followed up at 5 day, 10 day, 15 day, 20 day, 4 and 8 weeks after faecal bacteria transplantation, respectively
IL-17,IL-6,TNF-α, TGF-β, IFN-γ and other cytokines were detected by ELISA(The units of these indices are pg/mL).
