New hope for diabetics: transplanting insulin factories
NCT ID NCT01241864
Summary
This study is testing whether transplanting insulin-producing cells, called islets, from deceased donors is safe for people with type 1 diabetes who have already had a kidney transplant. The goal is to see if this procedure can help patients achieve better blood sugar control without needing insulin shots and avoid dangerous low blood sugar events. The research will follow 10 participants for one year to measure their safety and blood sugar levels.
