Description

Inclusion Criteria :

  • Suffering from diabetes since more than 5 years
  • Patient with brittle type 1 diabetes despite an optimized insulin treatment and educational training will be included. A patient will be considered as experiencing a brittle type 1 diabetes if at least two criteria are present among: persistence of severe hypoglycemia, occurrence of ketoacidosis events without obvious etiology, diagnosis of unaware hypoglycemic episodes < 3 mmol/l based on CGM or self-monitoring blood glucose data, a mean blood glucose standard deviation>50%, MAGE index (Mean amplitude of glucose excursions)>60 mg/dl, LBGI index (low blood glucose index)>5, Clarke score≥4 or HYPOSCORE>800.
  • Insulin needs < 0,85 U/kg/day
  • HbA1c < 12% ;
  • No residual insulin secretion (plasmatic basal and stimulated C-peptide < 0.3 ng/ml)
  • Social Security membership or benefit from Social Security
  • Patients who signed the consent form

Exclusion Criteria :

Exclusion criteria related to islet infusion:

  • Hemostatic disorders, pre-existing liver disease (PAL, Gamma-GT, ASAT-ALAT >2N) or vesicular lithiasis.

Exclusion criteria related to diabetic complications:

  • Evolutive proliferative retinopathy, evolutive nephropathy (Glomerular filtration rate <30 ml/min/1.73m2 and/or proteinuria >0.5g/day), evolutive cardiopathy or obliterative arteriopathy with trophic cutaneous lesions.

Exclusion criteria related to immunosuppressant use:

  • Hemoglobin < 110mg/dL in women and < 120 mg/dL in men, leuconeutropenia, thrombopenia, systemic infection including chronic hepatitis B, C and VIH, neoplasia disease and hypertension>160/100 mmHg.
  • Corticoid treatment (except for patient that benefited from a kidney graft with maintenance steroid therapy)
  • Presence of anti-HLA antibody directed against the donor
  • Positive B or T cells crossmatch

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incremental cost- utility ratio at 1 year
Time Frame: 1 year
The primary endpoint will be the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio at one year for islet transplantation versus Best Medical Treatment of brittle type 1 diabetes.The effectiveness will be expressed as quality adjusted life years (QALYs) in a cost-utility analysis. QALYs are a composite measure of outcomes where utilities for health states (on 0-1 scale, where 0 corresponds to death and 1 to full health) act as qualitative weights to combine quantity and quality of life. The number of QALYs in each group will be assessed with the EuroQol 5 Dimensions questionnaire (EQ5D). The EQ-5D measures health status in terms of mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression.
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cost-effectiveness ratio at 1 year
Time Frame: 1 year
Assessment of the cost-effectiveness ratio at 1 year between islet cell transplantation versus best medical treatment (SAP therapy) for patients with brittle type 1 diabetes without impairment of vital prognosis. Two criteria of effectiveness will be used : the life years gained and the number of hypoglycemia
1 year
Assessment of individual medical benefit of quality of life
Time Frame: 6 months and 1year
Evaluate with DQOL questionnaire
6 months and 1year
Assessment of individual medical benefit in terms of metabolic efficacy
Time Frame: 6 months and 1 year
measured from the following criteria: severe hypoglycemia, HbA1c, stimulated C-peptide, fasting glucose, insulin dose or oral diabetes, glycemic variability
6 months and 1 year
Assessment and comparison of individual medical benefit in terms of complications of islet cell transplantation between the two groups
Time Frame: 6 months and 1 year
measured from in insulin independence, hospitalizations
6 months and 1 year
Assessment and comparison of clinical benefit for patients with brittle type 1 diabetes with impairment of vital prognosis before and after islet cell transplantation
Time Frame: 1 year
measured from DQOL, insulin independence, complications of islet cell transplantation
1 year
Assessment and comparison of costs for patients with brittle type 1 diabetes with impairment of vital prognosis before and after islet cell transplantation
Time Frame: 1 year
measured from hospitalizations
1 year
Assessment of total cost of islet cell transplantation
Time Frame: 1 year
Assessment of total cost of islet cell transplantation for patients with type 1 diabetes without impairment of vital prognosis, from pre-transplant period until 1 year after the last injection. Two perspectives will be used: French health care system and hospital.
