Primary and secondary study objectives and endpoints.

Objectives Endpoints
Primary Objective
  • Assess the safety and feasibility of intravenous infusion of ex vivo selected and expanded autologous polyclonal Tregs in patients with T1DM

Primary Endpoints
  • Adverse events

  • Laboratory abnormalities

  • Signs of toxicity

  • Infusion reactions

  • Complications related to infection

  • Potential negative impact on the course of diabetes

Secondary Objectives
  • Effects on Endogenous Insulin Secretion: assess the effect of Tregs on beta cell function as well as on other measures of diabetes severity

  • Surrogate markers of diabetes immune response: measure the effect of Tregs on the pathologic autoimmune response underlying T1DM and on general immune responsiveness

Secondary Endpoints
  • C-peptide response during mixed meal tolerance tests

  • Insulin use

  • Hemoglobin A1c

  • Secondary surrogate immunologic markers related to general immune function and diabetes autoimmune response
