Safety and Efficacy of Human Microbiota Transplantation for Overweight and Obese Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus ( SETOM ): A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Study

Name
SETOM
Description
The main purpose is to evaluate whether the percentage of body weight change from baseline to week 12 is higher than that in the placebo group. In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 39 patients fulfilling the study criteria will be enrolled in the study. Patients will be randomized(2:1) to either FMT or placebo.

Treatment
Fecal microbiota transplant (FMT)
Patients will randomized to a fecal microbiota transplantation by using a nasointestinal tube for 3 times in 4 weeks(0,2,4) without undergoing an enema before the treatment. The amount of FMT is 200ml at one time. Patients are given the same lifestyle guidance and nutritional advice.
Arms:
intervention
normal saline and glycerin/food coloring
Patients will receive an equivalent volume of normal saline and glycerin/food coloring via a nasointestinal tube (sham transplantation) for 3 times in 4 weeks(0,2,4) without undergoing an enema before the treatment. The amount of placebo FMT is 200ml at one time. Patients are given the same lifestyle guidance and nutritional advice.
