About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study to Test Safety and Efficacy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Human Labeled Islets Transplanted Into the Liver in Type 1 Diabetic Recipients

The purpose of the study is to determine whether human islets labeled by iron contrast agents could be imaged using magnetic resonance after transplantation into the liver of Type 1 diabetic recipients.

Read the detailed description

Islet transplantation represents approved therapeutic approach in selected Type 1 diabetic recipients with syndrome of hypoglycaemia unawareness. Existing imaging methods are not sufficient to provide adequate information about amount and fate of islets transplanted into the liver. Labeling of islets with superparamagnetic contrast agent ferucarbotran significantly shortens T2 relaxing time and therefore increase the contrast between islets and liver tissue in magnetic resonance imaging. In consequence, islets transplanted into liver could be easily detectable like hypotensive areas dispersed throughout the liver. MRI examination will be done on 1, 2, 4 weeks and 3, 6 and 12 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Frantisek Saudek at 1 site in Czechia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Czechia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evidence of safety and efficacy of MRI imaging of transplanted human labeled islets (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01050166, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Apr 2021.
