About this study
Islet transplantation is one of the effective and promising options for type 1 diabetes mellitus treatment1-4. The liver is the primary target location for infusion and portal vein catheterization is generally used. Percutaneous transjugular, percutaneous transhepatic, laparoscopically transmesenteric and laparoscopically transumbilical approaches were often utilized to access the portal. Current islet infusion approach via portal vein of liver has various defects. Percutaneous trans-hepatic puncture is risk of possible severe hemorrhage and portal thrombosis. The laparoscopic entry techniques require longer surgical duration and have an increased rate of catheterization failure. Moreover, the catheters were not allowed to indwell for subsequent infusions.
In the current study, the investigators aim to performed open surgery, catheterized the umbilical vein and infused islets into the portal vein. The catheter was indwelled for one month after surgery. Therapeutic effects, surgical parameters and complications were observed to evaluate feasibility and safety.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
umbilical vein catheterizationProcedure or surgery
A 7 cm incision was made in the middle-right of upper abdominal. The umbilical vein was identified located 4cm beyond umbilicus, which was then half dissected transversely and the atresic venous lumen was recanalized with a common duct probe (3mm-5mm, BAKES). A breakthrough feeling would be sensed after approaching forward for 10-14cm and the umbilical vein was successfully recanalized. The common duct probe was pulled out. A catheter (single lumen central venous catheter, 16-20G, TUOREN, China) was then cannulated for 15cm into left branch of portal vein through umbilical vein. The procedure was observed with Doppler ultrasound (LOGIQ S6, GE).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing umbilical vein catheterization in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Fuzhou General Hospital.
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 7 inclusion and 13 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 20 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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?
hemorrhage (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 20 Feb 2015.
