Official Title: A Multi-step Trial Towards Single Donor Islet Transplantation in Type 1 Diabetic Patients, Using Calcineurin Inhibitor-free Immunosuppression

Brief Summary: Our final objective is to develop an adoptive therapy with tolerogenic donor-specific Tr1 cells in T1D patients undergoing pancreatic islet transplantation (Tx). The achievement of this objective depends by the availability of an immunosuppressive treatment (IS) compatible with the survival, function, and expansion of the transferred Tr1 cells. For this purpose the investigators design a CNI-free single-group, phase 1-2 trial excluding the ATG or anti-CD25 induction therapy after the 1st islet infusion
