Brief Summary
In view to avoid immunosuppression, the investigators are submitting a Phase 1 clinical trial protocol testing the safety and the efficacy of encapsulated human islets in a "Monolayer Cellular Device" for allogeneic islets transplantation in Type 1 diabetic patients performed at the University clinical hospital Saint-Luc, Brussels. Encapsulated human islets will be transplanted in the subcutaneous tissue as "safety procedure" for patients. This protocol (single center trial) is designed as a limited series of islets transplants for 15 Type 1 diabetic adult subjects.

Monolayer Cellular Device
EXPERIMENTALEncapsulated human islets allotransplantation transplanted in subcutaneous tissue in Type 1 diabetes patient
Interventions
The product consists of isolated allogeneic human islets of Langerhans formulated in a serum-free transplant media. The islets will be encapsulated in an alginate-based "Monolayer Cellular Device". One device will be transplanted subcutaneously and corresponds to a patch of 1-3cm². One Device per patient. No Retransplantation.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Phase 1A:
- Male or female patients, of 30 to 80 years of age, C-peptide-negative;
- Patient must have signed the Patient Informed Consent Form;
- Type 1 diabetic (T1DM) patients insulin-dependent;
- T1DM patients already transplanted with a kidney graft and already on immunosuppressive therapy;
- T1DM patients already transplanted with a vascularized pancreas, already on immunosuppressive therapy, but with TOTAL dysfunction of the graft;
- T1DM patients already transplanted with a liver graft and already on immunosuppressive therapy;
- T1DM patients already transplanted with a heart or lung graft and already on immunosuppressive therapy;
- T1DM patients eligible for simultaneous transplantation with kidney and encapsulated human islets;
- Donor-Recipient ABO blood group compatibility;
- Donor- Recipient HLA compatibility.
- Phase 1B:
- Male or female patients, of 30 to 80 years of age, C-peptide-negative;
- Patient must have signed the Patient Informed Consent Form;
- T1DM patients without any immunosuppression who cannot be transplanted with vascularized pancreas (vascular complication, psychological reasons,...). The main objective is to restore a residual insulin secretion to stabilize the diabetes (reduction of hypoglycaemia,…);
- +2 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Patient is pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Patient has a positive T-cell crossmatch on the most recent serum specimen.
- Patient has malignancy or history of malignancy, with the exception of adequately treated localised squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma, without recurrence.
- Patient has any form of substance abuse, psychiatric disorder or condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may invalidate communication.
