Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled phase II study to investigate if a prime and boost of 20ug Diamyd® (rhGAD65 formulated in Alhydrogel®), administered subcutaneously four weeks apart, is safe and can preserve beta cell function in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes with a diabetes duration less than 18 months at intervention.
