    Hi VTKB,

    I am not sure, but will try and find out and if I hear anything back I will post on here what I can.

    Best wishes,

    Gavin

    Did they say which antibiotic was used in the study?  I wonder if this is why one of the pediatric GI doctors (i think at stanford but i forget) found some success using oral vancomycin in his patients with PSC (primary sclerosing cholangitis), which can be a precurser to cholangiocarcinoma.  Do you know if any of the oncologist known to the foundation have any thoughts on this (Dr. Javle, Abu-alfa, etc)?
