Trial tests cell transplants to free diabetics from insulin shots

NCT ID NCT01123187

Summary

This study tested whether transplanting insulin-producing cells (islets) could help patients with type 1 diabetes who already had a kidney transplant. The goal was to help these patients become independent from insulin injections and better control their blood sugar. Researchers tracked whether patients could stay off insulin for a year and monitored their safety and kidney health.
