Visualizing Beta Cells After Islet Transplantation (GLP1-transpl)

January 29, 2022 updated by: Radboud University Medical Center

Visualizing Beta Cells After Intrahepatic Islet of Langerhans Transplantation

In patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) that have undergone islet of Langerhans transplantation or are on the waiting list for transplantation, Ga-68-exendin PET imaging is performed to study the visualization of transplanted islet grafts in patients.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Detecting damage to islets with a reliable imaging technique could be important for improving islet survival after transplantation. This could lead to better patient outcomes which would be of great interest for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. In order to assess the possibility of visualizing transplanted islet grafts with Ga-68-NODAGA-exendin-4 PET, a proof-of -concept study is performed in 10 patients with type 1 diabetes who have undergone intrahepatic islet transplantation with biochemically proven functional islet grafts and 5 patients with type 1 diabetes who are on the waiting list for islet transplantation. The investigators propose to determine the uptake of the radiolabeled tracer and compare it to functionality of the islet grafts. These highly relevant data will provide us with more information on the suitability of GLP-1 receptor imaging for monitoring of transplanted islet mass.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The population consists of 10 individuals with type 1 diabetes patients who have undergone intrahepatic islet transplantation at least 3 months earlier at. Furthermore, 5 T1D patients without an islet transplant will be included as a control for uptake of the radiotracer in the liver. All participating individuals need to be 18 years or older. In total, 15 participants will be included.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hepatic uptake of 68Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4
Time Frame: 1 year
Hepatic uptake of 68Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 obtained by quantitative analysis
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Islet graft function
