Defecation frequency is greater than or equal to 3 times per day or significantly exceeds the usual habit, with a disease duration of > 4 weeks, or recurrent diarrhea with an intermittent period within 2 - 4 weeks;

Loose stools: Types 5, 6, and 7 based on the Bristol Stool Form Scale.

The subject or his/her legal representative has given informed consent, is fully aware of the purpose of the study, is able to communicate well with the investigator, and is able to understand and comply with the requirements of the study.

Disqualifiers

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The clinical response rate after treatment

A clinical response was described as the change of the defecation frequency and the fecal consistency scores (assessed using the Bristol Stool Form Scale) after receiving CMTS4520 and washed microbiota transplantation on the first day (D1) and the fourth week (D28) post-treatment compared to baseline, as well as the average weekly fecal consistency scores.

Time frame
One-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Two-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Four-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Eight-week post-CMTS4520 administration

Secondary outcomes

1

The incidence of treatment-related adverse events (AE) assessed by CTCAE, Version 5.0

The severity of AE was graded as mild (grade 1), moderate (grade 2), severe/disabling (grade 3), life threatening (grade 4), and death (grade 5). All AE were divided in definitely, probably and possibly related to treatment. The treatment-related AE we focused on included microbiota-related AEs (e.g., infection, diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc.) and route of delivery related AEs (e.g., nausea, vomiting, etc.).

Time frame
Immediately post-CMTS4520 administration, One-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Two-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Four-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Eight-week post-CMTS4520 administration
2

The abdominal discomfort after treatment

The scales include Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) for abdominal discomfort.

Time frame
One-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Two-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Four-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Eight-week post-CMTS4520 administration
3

The abdominal discomfort after treatment

The scales include IBS Symptom Severity Scale (IBS-SSS) for abdominal discomfort.

Time frame
One-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Two-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Four-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Eight-week post-CMTS4520 administration
4

The abdominal discomfort after treatment

The scales include IBS Global Improvement Scale (IBS-GIS) for abdominal discomfort.

Time frame
One-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Two-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Four-week post-CMTS4520 administration,Eight-week post-CMTS4520 administration
