    Faecal/intestinal microbiota transplant (FMT/IMT) is an efficacious treatment option for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection, which has prompted substantial interest in FMT's potential role in the management of a much broader range of diseases associated with the gut microbiome. Despite its promise, the success rates of FMT in these other settings have been variable. This review critically evaluates the current evidence on the impact of clinical, biological, and procedural factors upon the therapeutic efficacy of FMT, and identifies areas that remain nebulous. Due to some of these factors, the optimal therapeutic approach remains unclear; for example, the preferred timing of FMT administration in a heavily antibiotic-exposed hematopoietic cell transplant recipient is not standardized, with arguments that can be made in alternate directions. We explore how these factors may impact upon more informed selection of donors, potential matching of donors to recipients, and aspects of clinical care of FMT recipients. This includes consideration of how gut microbiome composition and functionality may strategically inform donor selection criteria. Furthermore, we review how the most productive advances within the FMT space are those where clinical and translational outcomes are assessed together, and where this model has been used productively in recent years to better understand the contribution of the gut microbiome to human disease, and start the process toward development of more targeted microbiome therapeutics.

    Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has evolved from an anecdotally reported last resort for the critically ill to a well-established first-line treatment for patients with recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), supported by grade 1a evidence. Given our improved understanding of the intestinal microbiota and how it impacts human health, FMT is now being explored for a range of emerging indications beyond CDI. In light of the rapid emergence of FMT as a novel treatment strategy in medicine, a need for international harmonisation has arisen. Addressing this need, the recently published 5th edition of the Guide to the quality and safety of tissues and cells for human application, issued by the European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines & HealthCare of the Council of Europe (EDQM), harbours complete descriptions of the collection, procurement and application of donor faeces as a substance of human origin (SoHO). The proposed revision of the Blood Tissue and Cell Regulation of the European Union (EU) incorporates stool for FMT as a SoHO. This revised regulation will provide a regulatory framework for the future development of donor-derived microbiome therapies. To implement and underpin the safety and quality requirements for FMT in this newly designed legal context, and to facilitate clinical use, collaboration and research, we established the European Academic FMT Network (EurFMT network). The European FMT Registry plays a pivotal role within this network, facilitating its clinical activities and monitoring safety. In this document, we summarise the basis for using donor faeces-derived microbiome therapies as well as the aim and main scope for the EurFMT network.
