Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether umbilical cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells of treatment for initial type 1 diabetes is safe and effective.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)is characterized by the autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic β cells.Patients require multiple daily insulin injections throughout their lives as well as close monitoring of their diet and blood sugar levels to prevent complications. The investigators hope umbilical cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells could not only address the need for β-cell replacement but also control of the autoimmune response to β cells.
