Evaluation of the Efficacy of Intramuscular Islet Autograft After Extensive Pancreatectomy

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Intramuscular Islet Autograft: Intramuscular Islet Autograft After Extensive Pancreatectomy
Study summary
The liver may not be an optimal site for islet transplantation due to obstacles by an instant blood-mediated inflammatory response, and low revascularization of transplanted islets. Therefore, intramuscular islet transplantation offers an attractive alternative, based on its simplicity, enabling easier access for noninvasive graft imaging and cell explantation.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- the percentage of patients with a functioning graft in the arm 3 months after autograft. — 3 months
Graft function will be estimated by the difference in insulin response between the two arms after the test stimulus by arginine (Acute Insulin Response or AIRarg) .The graft will be considered functional (success) when the insulin response in the grafted arm will be at least 30% higher compared to the other arm, 3 months after transplantation.
