• Age \>18 years' old
• Patient capable of giving informed consent
• Randomized Pilot Exclusion

• Patients on anti-diarrheal medications
• Patients on probiotics
• Safety Trial Inclusion
• Patients planned to receive precision hypofractionated radiation (SBRT or an ablative dose of radiation is used if SBRT is not appropriate or if insurance does not approve - i.e. \> 30 Gy in 10 fraction equivalent) to all sites of oligoprogressive NSCLC who progressed after 1st line systemic therapy for metastatic disease which included immunotherapy or a tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for NSCLC
• The number of sites of progression are \< 5 sites.
• Age \>18 years' old
• Patient capable of giving informed consent
• Safety Trial Exclusion
• Evidence of untreated CNS or leptomeningeal disease
• Use of antibiotics, antifungal, antivirals or antiparasitics during the 4 weeks prior to registration
• Active infection with oral temperature \>100°F
• Use of oral corticosteroids, methotrexate or immunosuppressive drugs during the 4 weeks prior to registration
• Use of chemotherapy during the 4 weeks prior to radiotherapy or during radiotherapy. Chemotherapy cannot begin before the collection of the 30-day post treatment sample (S3).
• Documented history of HIV, HBV or HCV
• Patients on daily anti-diarrheal medications
• Use of probiotics during the 4 weeks prior to radiotherapy or during radiotherapy
