Stem Cell Mobilization + Immunotherapy for Type 1 Diabetes
Study Summary
This trial is based on the "immunological reset" approach to treat type 1 diabetes. T-depletion therapy and anti-inflammatory treatment will restore self-tolerance in T1DM patients. Autologous, peripheral-blood mobilized hematopoietic CD34+-enriched stem cells and a long-acting GLP-1 analogue will promote pancreatic islet regeneration and repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are people still being accepted into the experimental group for this research?
"According to the latest information on clinicaltrials.gov, this trial is not looking for any more participants at present time. The study was originally posted on August 15th, 2017 and updated as recently as July 6th, 2022. Although this particular trial isn't seeking patients right now, there are 1,457 other studies that are actively recruiting candidates."
How many test subjects are a part of this research?
"This study is not recruiting at the moment, as per the latest update on July 6th, 2022. The clinical trial was first posted on August 15th, 2017. However, there are many other trials seeking patients with diabetes and autoimmune disorders that you may be eligible for. For example, there are presently 1304 trials actively looking for participants with diabetes and 153 studies for Alemtuzumab admitting patients."
What other drugs has Alemtuzumab been tested with in clinical trials?
"As of now, there are 153 ongoing clinical trials for Alemtuzumab. Out of these, 28 have reached Phase 3. Most of the research teams conducting these studies are based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; although, in total, there are 1454 locations where these trials are taking place."
Would I be a good candidate for this clinical trial?
"Up to 60 patients that have diabetes and an autoimmune disease, between the ages of 18-45, can be enrolled in this study. The most crucial requirements for candidates are as follows: being free from any condition which would rule them out at PI's discretion and being within the age range of 18-45."
What are the most frequent indications for Alemtuzumab?
"Alemtuzumab is most frequently used to combat cardiovascular disease (cvd), but it can also be used as part of a treatment plan for systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sjia), neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (nomid) and for hematopoietic stem cell mobilization therapy."
Can young adults participate in this research project?
"If patients meet the age requirement of 18 to 45 years old, they may be eligible for this clinical trial. However, there are 272 trials specifically designed for people under 18 and 1073 trials meant for those over 65."
