MTT for Children With ASD Who Have Gastrointestinal Disorders : Microbiota Transfer Therapy for Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Who Have Gastrointestinal Disorders

For children ages 5-17 years with Autism Spectrum Disorder and gastrointestinal problems, a Phase 2 clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of MTT. The three parts of this trial are described below.Part 1: Randomized Trial The trial will begin with a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial which will include a 2-week treatment with oral vancomycin (Group A) or placebo (Group B), then 1 day of Miralax to cleanse the bowel of vancomycin and bacteria/feces (both groups), followed by oral administration of FM (Group A) or placebo (Group B). An initial high dose of FM (or placebo) for two days will be followed by a lower maintenance dose of FM or placebo for 12 weeks.Part 2: Extension (Group A) and Treatment (Group B)For Group A there will be 12-week observation periodFor Group B, there will be treatment similar to that received by the treatment group in Part 1 (partial cross-over, open-label), except that they will not receive vancomycin. So, they will be treated with Miralax followed by an initial high dose of FM for 2 days, and then a maintenance dose of FM for 12 weeks. The purpose of this arm is to determine if vancomycin is necessary or not.Part 3: Follow-up There will be a follow-up evaluation at 6, 12, and 18 months after treatment ends, to determine long-term safety and efficacy.Participant duration will be approximately 6.5 months for treatment, and follow-up at 6, 12 and 18 months after treatment ends.Study duration will be approximately 4 years, including IRB approvals, training staff, recruiting, clinical trial, data analysis, and reporting..
