Treatments Being Tested
Fecal Microbial Transplantation
The capsules consists of approximately 50 grams of donor feces. This is cryopreserved, homogenized and dispensed into double-coated, acid resistant enterocapsules. A single treatment includes approximately 25 capsules. The fecal material is obtained from healthy donors, recruited from thoroughly screened healthy blood donors and processed in compliance with the European Tissue and Cells Directive. Further, the donors lipid status and HbA1c is screened, ensuring only metabolically healthy donors are included.
Placebo
The placebo products consists of the same capsules as FMT. The content of the capsules is produced from a suspension of glycerol, saline and food coloring. The number of placebo capsules will correspond to the amount of FMT capsules. The placebo capsules will be identical in visual appearance.
