RECRUITING

Prevention of de Novo Allosensitization in Islet Transplant Recipients Following Complete Graft Loss

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This is a single-center, prospective, open label study in islet transplant recipients after complete islet graft rejection/loss, defined as stimulated c-peptide ≤0.3 ng/mL.
