O. Formigenes Colonization in Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Disease
Recruiting
The goal of this trial is to test if colonization with the gut bacteria Oxalobacter formigenes leads to a reduction in urinary oxalate excretion in patients with calcium oxalate kidney stone disease. The study will recruit adult participants with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones who are not colonized with Oxalobacter formigenes. Participants will * ingest fixed diets containing low and moderately high amounts of oxalate for 4 days at a time * collect urine, blood and stool samples d... Read More
