Study Summary

This trial is testing a new immunotherapy to improve islet transplants for type 1 diabetes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with type 1 diabetes that's hard to manage despite working closely with their doctors. It's specifically for those getting a primary islet cell transplant, which replaces the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests hOKT3gamma1 (Ala-Ala), an immunotherapy drug given shortly after an islet cell transplant. The goal is to see if it can prevent the immune system from attacking and rejecting these new cells over one year.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
As this trial involves immunotherapy, potential side effects may include allergic reactions, symptoms of cytokine release syndrome like fever or fatigue, and possibly increased risk of infections due to immune system suppression.
