About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Type 1 Diabetes focused on measuring Type 1 diabetes, islet transplantation, autotransplantation

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 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

Exclusion Criteria:

  • presence of hematologic disease

Sites / Locations

  • IRCCS San Raffaele

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Intra BM islet infusion

Arm Description

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

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

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

Secondary Outcome Measures

Beta-cell function
Beta-cell function will be assessed by fasting C peptide, HbA1c,glycaemia, change in average daily insulin requirements, basal (fasting) and -10 to 120 min time course of glucose, C-peptide and insulin derived from the arginine test, beta-score and Transplant Estimated Function

5. Study Description

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.
Detailed Description
We were permitted to perform single intra BM islet infusion at the level of the iliac crest in patients having contraindications for intraportal infusion. A needle for BM aspiration (14 G) is inserted into the superior-posterior iliac crest and islet suspension (1:2.5; tissue:Ringer's Lactate solution) is infused. The entire intraBM-injection procedure lasted 8-15 min from the beginning of anaesthesia (short propofol sedation).
