@YerAuldDa67@Kerrydal31888 Oh dear what a dreadful debate this is . Not personal far from it. But jeezo debating if a young lad is to be criticised. Is that where we are.
BIG news from Eledon: they've submitted an IND to the FDA for a clinical trial using tegoprubart in people with type 1 diabetes who've received transplanted islet cells from organ donors.
But let’s break down what it actually means.
After all 12 people in the University of Chicago study became insulin-independent following islet-cell transplantation, Eledon has now submitted an Investigational New Drug application to the FDA for its own company-sponsored trial.
In plain English: This research is moving beyond one small university-led study and onto a formal path toward potential FDA approval.
The original study is also expanding from 12 to 15 participants, while tegoprubart is being studied in additional islet-cell and kidney-transplant programs.
A few important reminders:
👉 This is not FDA approval yet.
👉 Tegoprubart is an anti-rejection drug—not the source of the insulin-producing cells.
👉 These transplants still use islet cells from deceased organ donors.
👉 Participants still require ongoing immunosuppression.
But this is still a meaningful step forward. A company-sponsored, registrational study is exactly what needs to happen if this treatment is ever going to move beyond a small research program and become available to more people.

John Collins speaking on BBC Sportsound:
“Surely VAR has to have a look? It’s as blatant a penalty as you’ll ever see. If VAR have watched that and think it shouldn’t be a penalty, every one of them should be sacked.”
@Gerry31D Gerry I remember your uncle fondly. From golf at mount Ellen and when he had the pub in bargeddie. An absolutely brilliant Big fella. Great photos and always loved his celic no.plate . God bless Doc 🍀
@JonConnollyGk1@DeanMK85 Im down to 14st. And the hernia is manageable. I need gloves though and maybe those sporty specs. Big Jon could make me play again watching this.
