Hope for Type 1 Diabetes

A small but promising trial has brought renewed hope to those with type 1 diabetes. Ten out of 12 patients who received an experimental stem cell treatment no longer require insulin a year after the infusion.
Published in the New England Journal of Medicine, the findings suggest this may be a game-changing step towards a functional cure. Even the remaining two participants saw a significant reduction in insulin needs.
If the results continue, the medication could be submitted for regulatory approval next year.
