Summary

Primary outcome measurement is a parameter of functional beta cell mass at 6 months PT. Functional beta-cell mass will be calculated using the AUC/min between 150 and 160 min during hyperglycemic clamp at 180 mg/dl.

The investigators hypothesize that functional beta-cell mass will be more than 20% compared to healthy controls.

Secondary outcome measurements:

Functional beta-cell mass at 2,12,18,24,36,48 and 60 months PT.

The investigators will also compare at 2, 6,12, 24,36,48 and 60 months the changes against base-line (base-line = before first intraperitoneal transplantation):

* metabolic control
* safety parameters
* episodes of hypoglycemia
* islet cell autoantibodies, lymphocyte subsets, T-cell reactivity against auto- and alloantigens using pre-transplant measurements as base-line The investigators hypothesize that metabolic control and prevalence of hypoglycemia, will be significantly improved till PT month 12.

Histopathology of a biopsy specimen of the human intraperitoneal beta cell implant, at time of the second implant. Comparison with composition of graft, identification of microenvironment of host origin and correlation with functional assessment will be performed.
