Brief summary
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AT-1501 in an immunomodulation regimen in adult patients with T1D undergoing an islet cell transplant.
Detailed description
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of transplantation of experimental islet cells as a potential treatment for brittle type 1 diabetes mellitus. It will also assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AT-1501 in an immunomodulation regimen in adult patients with brittle T1D undergoing an islet cell transplant. This is a single arm open-label study and up to 6 participants will be recruited at a single center in the United States. The objectives include: * To assess the safety and tolerability of transplanted islet cells and immunomodulation with AT-1501, in combination (AT+) with rabbit anti-thymoglobulin (ATG), etanercept and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF/EC-MPS) in adults with T1D undergoing islet cell transplant. * To assess the efficacy of transplanted islet cells and immunomodulation with AT-1501 in adults with brittle T1D undergoing islet cell transplant. The duration of treatment may vary from participant to participant and could be up to 2 years. Participants may receive up to 2 islet cell transplants.
