Condition(s) studied

Microbial Colonization

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Microbiome restoration - FMTMicrobiome restoration - FVTPlaceboVaginal birth, untreated control

Microbiome restoration - FMT: Pathogen-free microbiota from maternal stool sample is transferred from mother to infant.

Microbiome restoration - FVT: Sterile-filtered and ultracentrifuged FMT, containing only viruses, is transferred from mother to infant.

Placebo: Inactive solution buffer

Vaginal birth, untreated control: No intervention. This group is for secondary outcomes comparisons.

Study summary

This study aims to develop a therapy for restoring the gut microbiome in infants born via CS. The Study will conduct a randomized, placebo-controlled feasibility trial to assess the ability of microbiome restoration by FMT and FVT in infants born by cesarean section.
