STUDIES TEST NEW APPROACHES TO ISLET TRANSPLANTATION
Researchers from 11 medical centers in the United States, Canada, Sweden,
and Norway have begun testing new approaches to transplanting clusters of
insulin-producing islets in adults with difficult-to-control type 1
diabetes. The clinical studies, funded by the National Institutes of
Health (NIH), will determine whether changes to current methods of islet
transplantation lead to improved, long-lasting control of blood glucose
with fewer side effects.
In islet transplantation, clusters of islets are extracted from a donor
pancreas and infused into the recipient's liver. In a successful
transplant, the islets become embedded in the liver and begin producing
insulin.
"A major goal of the NIH research program in type 1 diabetes is to develop
therapies that replace the insulin-producing cells destroyed by the
autoimmune process," said NIH Director Elias A. Zerhouni, M.D. "These
studies, which build on advances in immunology and transplantation
research, may open the door to more widespread use of islet
transplantation for patients with severe type 1 diabetes."
About 5 percent to 10 percent of the nearly 21 million people with
diabetes have type 1, formerly known as juvenile onset diabetes or
insulin-dependent diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, a person's own immune
cells attack and destroy pancreatic beta cells, which produce the hormone
insulin needed for survival. Beta cells, along with several other types of
cells that work together to balance blood glucose, reside in islets, also
known as islets of Langerhans, in the pancreas. Three or more insulin
injections a day or treatment with an insulin pump are often needed to
maintain blood glucose control, but most people with type 1 diabetes still
develop complications, including damage to the heart and blood vessels,
eyes, nerves, and kidneys. Despite steady improvements in managing the
disease, type 1 diabetes cuts lives short by about 15 years, with early
deaths due mainly to heart attacks and strokes.
In 2000, a research team led by Dr. James Shapiro at the University of
Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, reported sustained insulin independence in
seven patients transplanted with islets from two to four donor pancreases
and treated with an immunosuppressive regimen that omitted
glucocorticoids, thought to be toxic to islets. In the next few years,
other researchers replicated the "Edmonton protocol," and most centers
adopted this approach to islet transplantation.
The protocol greatly benefits some patients with severe type 1 diabetes,
but two or more infusions of islets are usually needed, and the islets
tend to lose their insulin-producing function over time. Participating in
an islet transplant study is appropriate for people with severe
hypoglycemia (dangerously low levels of blood sugar) and for those with
type 1 diabetes who have had a kidney transplant to treat kidney failure,
a complication of diabetes.
Since the Edmonton advance, scientists have been working to lengthen the
survival of donor islets and reduce the side effects -- such as anemia,
nerve and kidney damage, and vulnerability to infection -- of drugs that
prevent the body's destruction of donor islets. In the new studies, the
researchers will culture islets before transplantation to enhance their
viability. They will also compare specific anti-rejection drugs for the
ability to maximize islet survival while reducing toxicity. As the
procedure becomes safer and new sources of beta cells become available,
more people are likely to benefit.
The researchers are conducting pilot, or phase 1/2, studies of
experimental agents as well as phase 3 studies that modify the Edmonton
protocol. If the phase 3 studies succeed in safely controlling blood
glucose levels, the investigators may ask the Food and Drug Administration
to approve the procedure for people with poorly controlled type 1
diabetes.
For information about the phases of clinical trials
see
<http://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/2003/503_trial.html>
"If these approaches are successful in prolonging islet function with less
drug toxicity, type 1 diabetes patients with severe problems controlling
their blood glucose may have another treatment option for controlling
their diabetes," said study chair Dr. Camillo Ricordi of the University of
Miami.
The studies are enrolling individuals with type 1 diabetes who have
serious difficulty controlling their blood glucose despite intensive
medical therapy and who suffer from episodes of severe hypoglycemia
(dangerously low levels of blood glucose). Also eligible are patients with
severe hypoglycemia and hypoglycemia unawareness, who cannot sense a drop
in blood glucose and may lose consciousness without warning. In addition,
researchers are accepting type 1 diabetes patients who have had a kidney
transplant and are already taking immunosuppressive drugs. For more

The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases
(NIDDK) and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
(NIAID), components of the NIH, are sponsoring the studies. The studies
are funded by a special Congressional funding program for type 1 diabetes
research, recently extended through fiscal year 2009, which supplements
the regular NIH appropriation for diabetes research.
The NIDDK conducts and supports research in diabetes and other endocrine
and metabolic diseases; digestive diseases, nutrition, and obesity; and
kidney, urologic, and hematologic diseases. Spanning the full spectrum of
medicine and afflicting people of all ages and ethnic groups, these
diseases encompass some of the most common, severe, and disabling
conditions affecting Americans. For more information about NIDDK and its
programs,

NIAID supports basic and applied research to prevent, diagnose and treat
infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted
infections, influenza, tuberculosis, malaria and illness from potential
agents of bioterrorism. NIAID also supports research on basic immunology,
transplantation and immune-related disorders, including autoimmune
diseases, asthma and allergies. For more information about NIAID and its
