Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients between 18 and 60 years of age.
  • Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
  • Patients with a renal transplant that is more than 6 months old.
  • Patients with stable renal graft function for the preceding 6 months, i.e. no episodes of rejection and changes in serum creatinine no more than 0.5 mg/dl from baseline.
  • Patients who are taking tacrolimus, sirolimus +/- steroids for maintenance immunosuppression for at least 6 months and are tolerating levels satisfactory for islet transplantation without severe complications.
  • Patients with a body mass index (BMI) of less than or equal to 26.

You may not qualify if:

  • Stimulated or basal C-peptide \> 0.3 ng/ml.
  • Patients with unstable renal function - serum creatinine greater than 0.5 mg/dl above baseline.
  • Patients with corrected creatinine clearance of less than 40.
  • Patients weighing more than 80 kg.
  • Patients with a body mass index (BMI) of greater than 26.
  • Insulin requirement \> 1.0 U/kg/d.
  • Anemia (hemoglobin: males \< 11.0 g/dl; females \< 10.0 g/dl).
  • Abnormal liver function tests (consistently \> 1.5 x normal range).
  • Unstable diabetic retinopathy.
  • Evidence of acute or chronic active Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection (IgM ≥ IgG). Patients will be eligible if serological testing becomes consistent with previous exposure (i.e. IgG \> IgM).
  • Patients with history of malignancy or current malignancy other than non-melanomatous skin cancer, or finding of any lesions or symptoms during screening that are suspicious for malignancy, until properly investigated and ruled out.
  • Patients with elevation of prostate-specific antigen \> 4 unless malignancy has been excluded.
  • Patients with unstable cardiovascular status.
  • Patients with active infections until adequately treated, unless treatment is not judged as necessary by the investigators (including, but not limited to, mild skin and nail fungal infections).
  • Patients with serological evidence of infection with HIV, human t cell lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV 1), HTLV 2, or hepatitis B (patients with serology consistent with previous vaccination and a history of vaccination are acceptable).
