Study Summary

This trial is trying to determine if adding a treatment called fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) can help with the gastrointestinal side effects of antibiotics in patients receiving anti-CD19 chimeric antigen

Who is the study for?
This trial is for lymphoma patients who are undergoing CAR-T cell therapy and experiencing gut-related side effects from antibiotics. It's designed to see if fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) can help with these issues.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing whether adding FMT to standard anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy can reduce gastrointestinal complications in lymphoma patients. This pilot trial will provide initial data on the effectiveness of this combination treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions related to chemotherapy and CAR-T therapies, such as nausea, fatigue, fever, and infection risk. FMT might cause bloating, diarrhea or introduce new infections.
