Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are individuals with Type 1 Diabetes who have received a kidney transplant and are on a stable immunosuppression regimen.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have had prior islet cell transplants or multiple kidney transplants may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of VX-880 in individuals with Type 1 Diabetes who have undergone a kidney transplant. Participants must have a history of insulin dependence for at least five years and be on a stable immunosuppression regimen. The study will involve the use of continuous glucose monitoring to track participants' glucose levels throughout the trial. The goal is to determine how well VX-880 can manage diabetes in this specific patient population.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could improve diabetes management and overall health outcomes for kidney transplant recipients with Type 1 Diabetes.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel in the context of kidney transplant patients with Type 1 Diabetes, similar studies have shown promise in other populations.
