Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether intravenous administration of autologous adipose-derived stem cells is of benefit in the management of types 2 diabetics.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Procedure: Autologous Adipose-derived Stem cells Phase 1 Phase 2

Detailed Description:
Diabetes Mellitus is of large epidemic proportions worldwide. It is proliferating at such a fast rate that new novel drugs and other therapeutic approaches are required. The purpose of this Phase 1/Phase 2 study is to determine whether the intavenous administration of activated adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction as a single procedure is safe to and can benefit the disease pathology of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (insulin resistance). Patients will be observed over 12 months following the procedure, with a 2 week, 1 month and then tri monthly diagnostics and life style questionaires.
