Summary

The study evaluates the effect of inactivation of the immune system with chemotherapy and immunotherapy and infusion of bone marrow stem cells in early onset type 1 diabetes mellitus. We hypothesize that reprograming the immune system will stop immune aggression to the insulin producing cells allowing their regeneration and thus decreasing or eliminating the need of exogenous insulin.

Conditions

  • Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Immunosuppression and autologous stem cell transplantation

Immunosuppression and autologous stem cell transplantation: Mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) with cyclophosphamide (2 g/m2) and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF, 10 ug/kg/d), followed by collection and cryopreservation of unselected HSC and conditioning with cyclophosphamide (200 mg/kg) plus rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG 4.5 mg/kg).
