Abstract
Methods for enhancing vascular support of cells housed within an implanted apparatus are disclosed. The methods comprise placing a population of therapeutic substance-producing cells into the cell receiving chamber of an immunoisolation apparatus, implanting the apparatus into a patient, and administering an immunomodulatory agent to the patient. The immunomodulatory agent increases the number of close vascular structures in the vicinity of the implanted device, which increases the long term survival of the cell population housed therein.
