NCT01722682

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of bone marrow (BM) as site for pancreatic islet transplantationin humans. Our hypothesis is that BM represents a better site than liver (currently the location of choice for this procedure) thanks to its potential capacity to favor islet engraftment. To address our hypothesis we propose herein a randomized phase II trial to compare BM and liver as sites for islet transplantation in T1D patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Insulin secretion under stimulation

    basal and -10 to 120 min time course of glucose, C-pep levels and insulin derived from the mixed meal tolerance test

    month 12 post-Tx

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Incidence and severity of Adverse Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    throughout the study up to 1 year after first transplant

  • Insulin requirement

    month 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 post- transplant

  • Islet function

    month 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 post-Tx

Study Arms (2)

A: intraportal islet infusion

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will received islet into the liver through the portal venous circulation (standard procedure)

Biological: Human pancreatic islet transplantation

B: intra BM islet infusion

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will received an intra BM islet infusion at the level of the iliac crest. The direct intra BM administration will be performed following the same procedures that our institution utilizes for administration of cord-blood cells in patients with acute leukemia (Lancet Oncol. 2008;9:831). The procedure is easy and reproducible: a standard needle for BM aspiration is inserted in the iliac crest and cells are gently infused.

Biological: Human pancreatic islet transplantation
