NCT03698396

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety of allogenic islet transplantation in type 1 diabetic patients performed at the University of Virginia. The purpose is to demonstrate that islet transplantation can be performed safely and reliably achieves better glycemic control than state-of-the-art insulin treatment in management of type 1 diabetic patients with brittle control and a history of severe hypoglycemic episodes with hypoglycemia unawareness.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of procedure related adverse events

    as evidenced by lack of bleeding during the procedure, incidence of portal vein thrombosis, incidence of biliary puncture during the procedure, incidence of wound complication for cases where laparotomy is performed, and incidence of increased transaminase levels \>5 times upper limit of normal within 6 months.

    within 1 year of transplant

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Proportion of subjects with HbA1c less than or equal to 7.0%

    within 1 year of transplant

  • Proportion of subjects free of severe hypoglycemic events between 6 and 12 months from the time of first islet cell infusion or from the time insulin therapy is withdrawn

    within 1 year of transplant

  • Insulin independence achieved

    within 1 year of transplant
