Brief Summary:
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1/2 study evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of VCTX211 Combination Product in Subjects with T1D

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Diabetes Mellitus Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 Glucose Metabolism Disorders Metabolic Disease Endocrine System Diseases Autoimmune Diseases Immune System Diseases Combination Product: VCTX211 Phase 1 Phase 2

Detailed Description:
VCTX211 combination product (unit) compromises 2 components: (1) allogeneic pancreatic endoderm cells (PEC211) genetically modified using Cluster Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/ CRISPR-associated protein 9 (CRISPR/Cas9) to promote immune evasiveness and survival, and (2) a durable, removable, perforated device designed to deliver and retain PEC211 cells.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of adverse events with causality related to VCTX211 units, the surgical procedures and/or medical interventions required to implant and explant the VCTX211 units. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  2. Assess the clinical efficacy of VCTX211 units via evaluation of C-peptide increase from the baseline. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of adverse events reported in patients implanted with VCTX211 units. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  2. Assess the clinical efficacy of VCTX211 units via evaluation of changes in exogenous insulin use from baseline. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  3. Assess the clinical efficacy of VCTX211 units via evaluation of changes in number of hypoglycemic evens from baseline. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  4. Assess the clinical efficacy of VCTX211 units via evaluation of changes in hemoglobin A1C levels from baseline. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  5. Assess the clinical efficacy of VCTX211 units via evaluation of percentage of time in pre-defined glycemic ranges, as measured by a continuous glucose monitor, from baseline. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  6. Qualitative evaluation of immune response to VCTX211 units assessed by histological staining for markers of host adaptive immune cells within the graft. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  7. Incidence of new alloreactive antibodies found in the blood of patients post implantation. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  8. Incidence of new autoreactive antibodies found in the blood of patients post implantation. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  9. The percentage of viable graft cells per unit using immunohistochemical staining. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
  10. The percentage of graft cells per unit that have differentiated into endocrine/beta cells as determined by immunohistochemical staining. [ Time Frame: From implantation up to 12 months post implantation ]
