Safety and Effectiveness of Low Molecular Weight Sulfated Dextran in Islet Transplantation

NCT00789308

RandomizedParallel-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 effectiveness of low molecular weight sulfated dextran (LMW-SD) on post-transplant islet function in people with type 1 diabetes who have responded to intensive insulin therapy.
