Brief Summary: Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells are destroyed resulting in poor blood sugar control The purpose of this study is to assess the benefit of islet transplantation in type 1 diabetic T1D kidney transplant recipients
Detailed Description: Type 1 diabetes is commonly treated with the administration of insulin either by multiple insulin injections or by a continuous supply of insulin through a wearable pump Insulin therapy allows long-term survival in individuals with type 1 diabetes however it does not guarantee constant normal blood sugar control Because of this long-term type 1 diabetic survivors often develop vascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy an eye disease that can cause poor vision and blindness and diabetic nephropathy a kidney disease that can lead to kidney failure and thus kidney transplant Some individuals with type 1 diabetes develop hypoglycemia unawareness a life-threatening condition that is not easily treatable with medication and is characterized by reduced or absent warning signals for hypoglycemia For such individuals pancreas or pancreatic islet transplantation are possible treatment options The purpose of this study is to assess the benefit of islet transplantation in type 1 diabetic kidney transplant recipients

Participants in this study will be type I diabetics who have received a kidney transplant for ESRD If subjects have not received ITT in the 12 months prior to enrollment they must undergo a period of standardized diabetes care by an experienced diabetologist at the transplant center using the current ADAs standards of medical care in diabetes Throughout the study all participants will remain on the immunosuppressive therapy intended for their kidney Participants will receive up to three separate islet transplants and a regimen of immunosuppressive medications consisting of antithymocyte globulin ATG and etanercept They will begin receiving ATG 2 days prior to transplant and will continue to receive ATG until Day 2 post-transplant Etanercept will be given on the day of transplant and on Days 3 7 and 10 post-transplant

Transplantations will involve an inpatient hospital stay and infusion of islets into a branch of the portal vein Participants who do not achieve or maintain insulin independence by Day 30 post-transplant will be considered for a second islet transplant Participants who remain dependent on insulin for longer than 30 days after the second transplant and who show partial graft function will be considered for a third islet transplant Daclizumab will be used in place of ATG for the second and third transplants if they are necessary Participants who do not meet the criteria for a subsequent transplant will enter a reduced follow-up period

There will be approximately 15 study visits A physical exam review of adverse events and blood collection will occur at most visits A chest x-ray abdominal ultrasound electrocardiogram quality of life questionnaires and urine collection will occur at some visits Participants will also test their own blood glucose levels throughout the study A 36-month follow-up period will take place after the participants last transplant consisting of 8 additional visits
