Peritransplant Deoxyspergualin in Islet Transplantation in Type 1 Diabetes

NCT00434850

NaSingle-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells are destroyed, resulting in poor blood sugar control. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of deoxyspergualin (DSG), an immunosuppressant drug, on post-transplant islet function in people with type 1 diabetes who have not responded to intensive insulin therapy.
