No this sounds similar but different. There is no enzyme test prior to it.

I knew someone who had a fecal transplant for C-diff several years ago. I don’t think it worked that well for her. Is the treatment you’re talking about connected with the gut enzyme clinical trials? The process replaces the enzyme those with ASD are missing. It’s a specific one that they have to be tested for to see if they are lacking.

What does MTT/FMT stand for? I share your frustration with clinical trials and getting new drugs approved. I heard the they were in phrase 3 clinical trials for the missing digestive enzyme replacement treatment but haven’t heard anything lately about it’s status. There’s also promising research on overproduction of nitric oxide in the brain which low-functioning ASD possess and the mouse model research went well.
