About the study

This open-label pilot study evaluates whether oral microbial transplant therapy can change urine factors associated with recurrent calcium-oxalate kidney stones. Adults with high urine calcium or high urine oxalate will receive antibiotic pretreatment followed by microbial capsules. Changes in 24-hour urine calcium and oxalate and treatment safety will be assessed.
