New treatment for Type I diabetes

Full disclosure: I am a type I diabetic.

Via Daily Dose, Transition Therapeutics has announced a new treatment for Type I diabetes: Islet Neogenesis Therapy (I.N.T.™):

The I.N.T.™ technology platform, covered by a broad patent portfolio, is based on the discovery that a short course of injections of naturally occurring peptides can regenerate insulin-producing cells in the body.

Transition Therapeutics was issued a patent covering the new treatment in late January. I wonder how I can be on the clinical trials.
