RECRUITING

A Study to Investigate Safety and Effectiveness of Pancreatic Cells Derived from Pigs (OPF-310) in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

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 study is First In Human study for Encapsulated Porcine Islet Cells for Xenotransplantation (OPF-310). The purpose of this study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of OPF-310 transplantation and to define the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in adult subjects with unstable Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and a level 3 (severe) hypoglycemic episode at least three times within the 1 year prior to enrollment despite treatment with a closed loop system (CLS) for at least 6 months.

Official Title

A Phase I/IIa, Single Site, Open-Label, Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of OPF-310 [Encapsulated Porcine Islet Cells for Xenotransplantation] in Subjects with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:35 Years to 65 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. 1. Subject must be aged 35 to 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
  2. 2. Subject has an established diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)(in accordance with the American Diabetes Association's criteria), with a minimum duration since diagnosis of 5 years.
  3. 3. If one of the following criteria (either a or b) applies:
  4. 1. Subject has unstable T1DM, not achieving adequate control after receiving CLS (CGM:Dexcom G6, insulin pump: Omnipod® 5 or t:slim X2) under care of a qualified diabetes team for at least 6 months prior to enrollment.
  5. 2. Subject has unstable T1DM, not achieving adequate control after receiving CLS (CGM:Dexcom G7, insulin pump: Omnipod® 5, t:slim X2, iLet Bionic Pancreas or The Tandem Mobi System) under care of a qualified diabetes team for at least 6 months prior to enrollment.
  6. 4. Subject has had a Level 3 (severe) hypoglycemic episode (defined as having cognitive impairment requiring external assistance for recovery) at least three times within the 1 year prior to enrollment recorded in the medical record or patient log.
  7. 5. Subject has C-peptide \<0.3 ng/mL following a mixed meal tolerance test or undetectable fasting C-peptide.
  8. 6. Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) ≥ 7.5 and ≤ 9.0
  9. 7. Contraceptive use must be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies
  10. 8. Subject who can agree to cooperate with lifetime follow-up after transplantation.
  11. 9. Subject is capable of providing signed informed consent
  1. 1. Previous history of insulin resistance (defined as an average insulin dose requirement ≥ 0.8 unit/kg/day for 1 week prior to enrollment).
  2. 2. Subject has latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA), ketosis-prone (Flatbush) diabetes, or maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY).
  3. 3. CRP ≥ 10 mg/L.
  4. 4. Clinically unstable thyroid disease (thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)\< the lower limit of the normal range of TSH at the site.) Patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism can be rescreened once TSH levels normalize due to treatment or other factors. In addition, patients with transiently abnormal TSH levels may undergo rescreening only once during the screening period.
  5. 5. History of malignancies within the past 5 years, excluding basal and squamous cell carcinoma
  6. 6. Positive serologies or nucleic acid testing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C, and hepatitis B.
  7. 7. Active or untreated proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Subjects may be rescreened once they are successfully treated.
  8. 8. Serious comorbid conditions that are likely to affect participation in the study, including:
  9. 1. Within the last 12 months, peripheral vascular disease with previous amputation.
  10. 2. History of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II, III or IV congestive heart failure (CHF) and/or chronic atrial fibrillation.
  11. 3. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma with previous hospitalization for decompensation; a requirement for mechanical ventilation at any stage; or long- term treatment with oral corticosteroids.
  12. 4. Macroalbuminuria (\> 300 mg albumin/gm creatinine).
  13. 5. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) cut-off of \< 30 ml/min for all per Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDOQI) and Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDIGO) consensus.
  14. 9. Use of warfarin or other anticoagulant therapy (except aspirin), or prothrombin time and international normalized ratio (PT-INR) \> 1.5
  15. 10. Adrenal insufficiency being treated with corticosteroids
  16. 11. Previous pan-peritonitis
  17. 12. Previous cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease
  18. 13. Patients with hematopoietic stem cell abnormalities (e.g., aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome)
  19. 14. Patients who received a blood transfusion in the previous 90 days, are anticipated to undergo surgery during the 1-year study period that may require transfusion, or have donated blood within the previous 90 days.
  20. 15. Previous receipt of an organ, skin allograft, or other tissue transplant from an allogeneic human or animal donor.
  21. 16. Treatment with immunosuppressive medication.
  22. 17. Previous abdominal surgery, excluding uncomplicated appendectomy, cholecystectomy, exploratory laparoscopy and hernia repair performed prior to 12 weeks prior to enrollment.
