The situation is particularly worrisome for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE). Taking Queen Mary Hospital as an example, the number of CRE cases has surged from 24 in year 2014 to 625 in year 2021. The case burden in Hong Kong is therefore substantial when all 43 public hospitals and institutions in Hong Kong are considered. With the widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and active case screening, the number of CRE cases is expected to further increase in an exponential manner.\n\nGiven that colonization with MDROs is due to gut dysbiosis from antibiotic use, a normal intestinal microbiota is apparently crucial in protecting hosts from colonization with MDROs including CRE. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), which involves the infusion of stool from a healthy donor to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of a recipient, has gained popularity in recent years to restore colonic microbial diversity in various diseases associated with gut dysbiosis, e.g. Clostridium difficile (CD) infection, ulcerative colitis and even metabolic diseases. The investigators aim to conduct a double-blind randomized controlled trial to evaluate the benefit of FMT via upper GI delivery (oral capsules) on CRE clearance.",[60,61],"Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae Infection","Fecal Microbiota Transplantation",[47,63],"CRE","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-05-08",{"date":67,"type":68},"2026-05-13","ACTUAL",{"date":70,"type":54},"2026-11-01",{"date":72,"type":54},"2028-06-30",{"name":5,"class":6}]
