Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of sleeve gastrectomy combined with pancreas after kidney (PAK) transplantation as a means of achieving normoglycemia, insulin independence, reduced insulin resistance, and kidney graft function preservation in the T2DM population. in the first year post pancreas after kidney transplant. Safety and efficacy data will be collected from the time of enrollment until participants reach 1 year post PAK transplant. Data will be compared to historical data from TGH's renal and pancreas transplant programs.


Clinical Trial Description

Diabetes is the leading cause of renal dysfunction and failure in Canada. Many patients will require dialysis and some with qualify for and receive a renal transplant. While a renal transplant can restore kidney function in diabetics, it does not address the underlying cause of the kidney disease. Patients remain at high risk of future morbidity from diabetes, including cardiovascular disease, retinopathy, neuropathy, and damage to the new graft. Notably, hyperglycemia is the largest risk factor to the renal bed. Good control of blood glucose levels is essential to minimize these effects but is not easily achieved or maintained. Pancreas transplantation eliminates the use of exogenous insulin and normalizes glucose levels in the blood. Patients with Type I diabetes are routinely offered Pancreas transplant -either Pancreas After Kidney (PAK) or Simultaneous -pancreas-kidney (SPK). In rare circumstances, patients can also receive a pancreas alone (PTA). At UHN, the investigators have offered SPK transplants to select patients with type II DM who are within weight criteria (BMI <30), but the investigators do not routinely offer PAK transplants to patients with DMII as these patients are overweight and suffering from insulin resistance. Patients with DMII may not be able to achieve normoglycemia and may continue to require exogenous insulin supplementation, after PAK alone. Weight loss in severely overweight individuals with DMII is known to improve insulin sensitivity. The majority of patients with DM II are overweight and have associated metabolic syndrome. Obesity and metabolic syndrome are themselves major risk factors for poor long-term outcomes in kidney transplantation. Weight loss can lead to improvements in all metabolic syndrome diagnostic criteria, however, it can be difficult to achieve significant and sustained weight loss in the context of insulin resistance associated with DM II. Patients who have already received a kidney transplant have the added metabolic side effects of immunosuppressive medications. To ensure excellent long-term outcomes with kidney transplantation, it is critically important to investigate strategies to minimize obesity, control diabetes, and improve metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors. Weight loss can be achieved through dieting and exercise, but most patients who diet regain their former weight or gain additional weight. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is an aggressive but well-tolerated treatment for obesity which can lessen the risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome and associated poor transplant outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that combining SG and PAK in patients with DM II who have previously undergone renal transplant will result in improvement of glycemic control, metabolic syndrome criteria, preserved/improved renal graft function and be well tolerated. This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of SG prior to PAK (staggered approach) compared to simultaneous SG and PAK (combined approach). Safety and efficacy data will be compared to historical data from TGH's renal and pancreas transplant programs. Controls will consist of DMII patients having undergone kidney transplant only, and DMII patients having undergone SPK. ;
