Safety and Viability of an E. Coli Nissle Colibactin Knockout in Healthy Volunteers
Sponsor:

Max Nieuwdorp

Information provided by (Responsible Party):

Max Nieuwdorp

Brief Summary:

E. coli Nissle (EcN) is a well-established human probiotic. However, it has been found that it produces colibactin, linked to colorectal cancer. In this safety trial, the safety and properties of a novel, colibactin-knockout EcN strain (EcNΔClbP) is investigated.

Condition or disease

Diabetes

Intervention/treatment

EcN Colibactin knockout

E Coli Nissle

Phase

PHASE1

Detailed Description:

In this randomised controlled intervention study, the investigators will compare EcN vs. EcN colibactin-knockout (EcNΔClbP), given once daily for 7 days, in a population of healthy individuals. Safety will be established using adverse event reporting, study visits and laboratory parameters. Pharmacokinetics will be established at the beginning and the end of the study. EcN/EcNΔClbP gut engraftment properties and effects on gut microbiome composition will be assessed using fecal analyses (qPCR, shotgun metagonmics). In addition, effects on glucose homeostasis will be studied using continuous glucose monitoring.

Study Type : INTERVENTIONAL
Estimated Enrollment : 20 participants
