Breakthrough Update: Today, Vertex announced that they are beginning their Phase 3, or pivotal trial for VX-880, a stem cell-derived islet therapy. A pivotal trial gathers the data required for an FDA submission. This therapy is for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and hypoglycemia unawareness and severe hypoglycemic episodes.
This is a HUGE first for the #T1D community as it is the first time a scalable cure for some people with T1D is entering this phase.
Breakthrough T1D and the T1D Fund are incredibly proud to have supported this work in cell therapies—a top priority for our organization. We want to congratulate our partners at Vertex and thank all the patients who have participated in clinical trials. Your courage and commitment are inspiring.

Exciting developments in stem cell-based therapies for type 1 diabetes!
Results from an ongoing clinical trial show that all 12 patients that received this cell therapy displayed islet cell engraftment and glucose-responsive insulin production.

Thrilled to share that our article on primary organoids derivation from human amniotic and tracheal fluids, is now out on @NatureMedicine
We present the first atlas of the unperturbed human amniotic fluid cells, containing epithelial progenitors of fetal small intestine, kidney and lung. Culturing these cells in 3D, our innovative low-tech/low-cost method allowed generation of primary fetal organoids of multiple tissues from continuing pregnancies.
Curious? Dive into the full article: nature.com/articles/s41591-0…
