Embodiment 1

[0176] Example 1 Fecal microbiota transplantation in the treatment of refractory immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated colitis

[0177] The inventors report the first case series of successful treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-associated colitis with fecal microbiota transplantation, reconstitution of the gut microbiome and a relative increase in the proportion of regulatory T cells within the colonic mucosa. These preliminary data provide evidence that modulating the gut microbiome can eliminate ICI-associated colitis.

[0178] The inventors sought to determine the impact of treatment with FMT from healthy donors in patients with refractory ICI-associated colitis and enrolled two patients in this regimen between June 2017 and January 2018 (CIND17-0036, CIND17-0058). The clinical course of the two patients was image 3 -5 for further details. The first patient, a 50-year-old woman with high-grade metastatic urothelial carcinoma refractory to standard chemother...
