AB - <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Background</jats:title> <jats:p>We conducted a single-arm interventional study, to explore mucosal changes associated with clinical remission under oral vancomycin (OV) treatment, in primary sclerosing cholangitis-associated inflammatory bowel disease (PSC-IBD); NCT05376228.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods</jats:title> <jats:p>Fifteen patients with PSC and active colitis (median fecal calprotectin 459 µg/g; median total Mayo score 5) were treated with OV (125 mg QID) for 4 weeks and followed-up for a further 4 weeks of treatment withdrawal (8 weeks, end-of-study). Colonic biopsies were obtained at baseline and Week 4. Clinical assessments, and serum and stool samples (metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, and metabolomics) were collected at Weeks 0, 2, 4, and 8. The primary efficacy outcome measure was the induction of clinical remission.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Results</jats:title> <jats:p>Oral vancomycin resulted in clinical remission in 12/15 patients and significant reductions in fecal calprotectin. Oral vancomycin was associated with reduced abundances of Lachnospiraceae, genera Blautia and Bacteroides; and enrichment of Enterobacteriaceae, and genera Veillonella, Akkermansia, and Escherichia. Oral vancomycin treatment was associated with the downregulation of multiple metatranscriptomic pathways (including short-chain fatty acid [SCFA] metabolism and bile acid [BA] biotransformation), along with host genes and multiple pathways involved in inflammatory responses and antimicrobial defence; and an upregulation of genes associated with extracellular matrix repair.
