Permalink Reply by Gary on June 1, 2012 at 3:49pm Its gonna happen sooner or later as long as politics let it. Many companies are finding solutions to protecting transplanted islets/beta cells without the need for anti rejection drugs. I can't wait to Viacyte to start their first human trial as they are using stem cells. I think Sernova Corp just started their first in human study and LCT was just approved for phase 2 in a refined formulation with a much higher dosage. None of these treatments address the core of the problem but if they can temporarily get us off the bottle in a safe manor not trading one set of problems for another I want to be first in line. As an old fart now with being diabetic longer then most on this board and hating living with as much as I do I demand to have front row seats to the begining of the end.
