Pancreatic Islets and Parathyroid Gland Co-transplantation for Treatment of Diabetes in the Intra-Muscular Site

Summary

This is a single-center, open-label, non-randomized safety and efficacy trial to evaluate co-transplantation of allogeneic parathyroid glands (PTG) with adult pancreatic islets (both PTG and pancreatic islets obtained from the same deceased donor) in people with Type 1 diabetes in the intramuscular (IM) site with stable function of liver or kidney allografts on chronic immunosuppression. 

A total of 8 patients will be enrolled in the study and followed for a minimum of 1 year up to 2 years after the last islet transplantation, depending on enrollment. The islet manufacturing protocol and patient treatment and monitoring procedures are based on those used in the NIH CIT 06 trial.
