Study Arms (2)

CELZ-201 Treatment Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this group will receive a single dose of CELZ-201, in addition to standard of care of care for Type 1 Diabetes treatment.

Biological: CELZ-201 Administration

Control Group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants in this group will receive standard of care for Type 1 Diabetes only.

Other: Control Group

Interventions

Participants in this group will receive a single dose of CELZ-201, in addition to standard of care for Type 1 Diabetes treatment. Perinatal tissue derived cells will be administered at a dose of 1x10\^6 cells/kg via an intra-arterial infusion into the dorsal pancreatic artery.

CELZ-201 Treatment Group

Enhanced standard of care for Type 1 Diabetes treatment only.

Control Group
