What this phase means
Phase 2: researchers already know a roughly safe dose (from phase 1). This stage asks whether the treatment actually helps the condition, and watches side effects more closely.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
If you join, the listed intervention(s) are MGT-006, Vancomycin hydrochloride, or Amoxicillin hydrate/ Fosfomycin calcium hydrate/ Metronidazole. The registry lists allocation as randomized. Ulcerative colitis is a condition that causes inflammation and ulcers in the large intestine.
They plan to enroll about 54 people at 12 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.
