NCT01345227

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate safety and feasibility of bone marrow (BM) as site for islet transplantation (Tx) in humans. The investigators hypothesis is that BM represents a better site than liver thanks to its potential capacity to favor islet engraftment in face of a more easiness of access and bioptic follow up.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Adverse events related to the procedure of intra bone marrow islet infusion

    up to 3 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Beta-cell function

    up to 3 years

Study Arms (1)

Intra BM islet infusion

EXPERIMENTAL

single intra BM islet infusion at the level of the iliac crest will be performed in patients having contraindications for intraportal infusion

Procedure: Intra bone marrow islet infusion

Interventions

A needle for bone marrow aspiration (14 G) will be inserted into the superior-posterior iliac crest and islet suspension (1:2.5; tissue:Ringer's Lactate solution) will be infused. The entire intraBM-injection procedure last 8-15 min from the beginning of anaesthesia (short propofol sedation).

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • diabetic patients eligible for pancreatic islet transplantation based on local accepted practice and guidelines. This includes at least: a)clinical history compatible with T1D with insulin-dependence for \>5 years; b) undetectable stimulated (arginine or MMTT) C-peptide levels (\<0.3 ng/mL) in the 12 months before transplant c)presence of severe hypoglycaemic events
  • patients undergoing total pancreatectomy because of anastomosis leakage after pancreatoduodenectomy or because of pancreatic anastomosis is made impracticable by technical difficulties and/or high risk of leakage.
  • presence of contraindications for intraportal islet infusion

You may not qualify if:

  • presence of hematologic disease
