Islet Transplant Alone in OMENtum

Islets of Langerhans TransplantationDiabetes Mellitus1 more

The study is a phase 2, monocentric, open-label study. The investigators will recruit 12 patients with T1D to be randomly (1:1) assigned to receive islet either into the liver through the portal venous circulation (standard procedure; arm A, n=6) or directly into the omentum (arm B, n=6). Patients will be selected from those eligible for islet Tx based on local practice and guidelines. Immunosuppression will consist of five doses IV infusion of rabbit Anti-thymocyte Globulin (ATG, Thymoglobulin®), starting two days prior to the islet transplant. Maintenance mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) therapy (1-2 g/day as BID dosing) will be started on Day -1 pre-transplant. Tacrolimus will be administered orally twice daily on Day 1 post-transplant to maintain a trough level of 10-12 ng/mL for 3 months, then 6-10 ng/mL thereafter. Etanercept will be given IV before the islet transplant (50 mg), and then at 25 mg (subcutaneously) on POD +3, +7 and +10.

Islet Cell Transplant for Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

City of Hope National Medical Center, located in Duarte, CA, is hosting a clinical study on islet cell transplantation, an experimental procedure being evaluated as a treatment for patients with type 1 diabetes. Islet cell transplantation involves taking insulin-producing cells from organ donors and transplanting them into the liver of a patient with diabetes. Once transplanted, the islets produce insulin, which can improve blood sugar control and eliminate the need to inject insulin or use an insulin pump. Anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and alemtuzumab (Campath) are anti-rejection medications that work by decreasing a patient's T-cells. T-cells are special white blood cells that recognize and destroy unwanted things like infections but can also attack transplanted cells and organs. Reducing the number of T-cells at the time of transplant may protect islets and improve long-term transplant success. In previous research studies, islet transplantation has been successful in reducing low blood sugar episodes, improving overall blood sugar control, and in some cases, allowing patients with type 1 diabetes to stop taking insulin. The purpose of this study is to determine if islet cell transplantation using ATG or alemtuzumab, along with additional medications to prevent the body from rejecting the transplanted cells, is a safe and effective treatment for type 1 diabetes. Study participants may receive up to three islet transplants and will be followed for five years to monitor blood sugar control, islet transplant function, and changes in quality of life.

PolyTreg Immunotherapy in Islet Transplantation

DiabetesDiabetes Mellitus1 more

Islet transplantation is a relatively new procedure used in people with difficult to control Type 1 diabetes. Patients who receive an islet transplant take medication that suppresses their immune system and prevent rejection of the islet tissue. In spite of the strengths of the current immunosuppression regimen, it has failed to enhance single-donor success rates, and the majority of patients require 2 or more islet transplants to achieve insulin independence. The need for life-long, high-dose immunosuppression is also associated with substantial side effects, and continues to limit application of islet transplantation earlier in the course of the disease. The investigators have learned that Regulatory T cells (Tregs), a small subset of cluster of differentiation 4+ (CD4+) T cells, have emerged as the major contributor to self-tolerance through suppression of activation and effector function of other immune cells. Tregs function by preventing the initiation of unwanted immune activation and by suppressing ongoing immune response to limit bystander tissue destruction. It has been suggested that infusion of Tregs before extensive graft damage may improve long-term graft outcomes. This study is an open label, controlled, dose finding pilot study. Up to 18 participants will be recruited including 12 participants receiving the investigational treatment and 6 participants being assigned to control group. All participants will undergo the routine Standard of Care islet transplant procedure, and will be maintained on lower dose tacrolimus and sirolimus immunosuppression. The primary goal is to assess the safety and feasibility of intravenous infusion of ex vivo-selected and ex vivo-expanded autologous PolyTregs in islet transplant patients. The other goal is to assess the effect of Tregs on beta cell function in islet transplant patients. The control group (6) will receive the current Edmonton islet transplant induction therapy (Alemtuzumab with Etanercept and Anakinra). The intervention group (up to 12) will receive islet transplant with same induction therapy as control group and PolyTregs (400-1600 million) six weeks post- transplant and will be followed for 1 year to assess safety and preliminary efficacy of Treg therapy. The Treg product will be administered via a peripheral intravenous (IV) line primed with saline per established standard operating procedures in approximately 20 to 30 minutes. The intravenous line will be maintained after the infusion and the participant will be asked to remain in the hospital for 24 hours. All participants will be maintained on low dose tacrolimus and sirolimus immunosuppression. The investigators will also use retrospective data from the islet transplant cohort receiving Tac/mycophenolate mofetil(MMF) with alemtuzumab (>100 patients). All study participants will be followed up for 58 weeks. Tests and assessments will be performed at each key study visit and will be allowed for +/- 2 weeks to accommodate scheduling. The following measurements will be recorded at each key study visit : Blood work, including the following: Complete blood count (CBC) and differential Creatinine and electrolytes Fasting glucose and c-peptide Any adverse events Physical examination Body weight (kg) Vital signs (BP, HR) Glucose records for self-monitoring. Hemoglobin A1c Insulin use (total daily dose) Autoantibodies and autoreactive T cell MMTT Immune profile

Stem Cell Mobilization (Plerixafor) and Immunologic Reset in Type 1 Diabetes (T1DM)

Diabetes MellitusType 1

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease characterized by destruction of pancreatic beta-cells, resulting in absolute deficiency of insulin. Presently there is no known cure. Our proposed interventional trial is based on 'immunological reset' approach: T-depletion therapy and anti-inflammatory treatment will restore self-tolerance in T1DM; Autologous, peripheral-blood mobilized hematopoietic CD34+-enriched stem cells and a long-acting GLP-1 analogue will promote pancreatic islet regeneration and repair. The short-term goals of this protocol is to demonstrate that subjects with new-onset T1DM undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and immunologic reset will have greater preservation of endogenous insulin secretion compared to controls, and foremost that this nonmyeloablative treatment is safe, without the need for chronic immune suppression.

Improving Health Communication During the Transition From Pediatric to Adult Diabetes Care

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Adolescents and young adults (AYAs; ages 17-23) with type 1 diabetes are at high risk for negative health outcomes, including poor glycemic control and disengagement from the health care system. The deterioration of glycemic control occurs in parallel with the assumption of independent self-care skills and preparation for adult diabetes care. Effective communication between AYAs and health care providers may be a critical contributor to diabetes self-care skills during the transition to adult diabetes care and related glycemic control. This research will attempt to better prepare adolescents and young adults for adult diabetes care by delivering innovative intervention content focused on both health communication skills and transition readiness skills. The investigators aim to leverage innovative technologies to improve developmentally-appropriate communication skills related to planning for clinic visits, disclosing and discussing diabetes-related concerns, and optimizing glucose data review in preparation for adult diabetes care. Adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes (ages 17-23) who are planning to transition to adult diabetes care within the next 6-8 months will be enrolled in the study and randomized to either the intervention group or a standard care control group. Medical, communication and psychosocial data (including A1c, glucose monitoring frequency, communication quality, health care engagement, depressive symptoms) will be collected from adolescent and young adult participants and health care providers at baseline and two follow-up time points, approximately 4 months post-baseline and approximately 8-12 months post-baseline after the transfer to adult diabetes care. This intervention has the potential to improve diabetes self-care skills, including engagement with health care providers, and glycemic control in AYAs with type 1 diabetes during the vulnerable period of transfer to adult diabetes care. The results of this work will inform best practices for the transition to adult diabetes care and can be translated into clinical care.
