DIAGNODE-3 Trial Summary

The DIAGNODE-3 study is testing an investigational drug called Diamyd (rhGAD65) to see if it is able to preserve the body's own insulin-producing capacity by halting or delaying the autoimmune attack on the beta cells. Sustained beta cell function is associated with better metabolic control and a lower risk of low blood sugars and chronic complications..

Who is the study for?
We are recruiting adolescents and adults recently diagnosed with type I diabetes who carry the the genetic human leukocyte antigen (HLA) Dr3-DQ2 haplotype. A haplotype is a group of genes, often inherited together and part of your genetic makeup, or DNA. Participants will be initially screened to see if they carry this HLA genotype and thereby qualify for the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The active ingredient in Diamyd is the human protein glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD). Treatment with Diamyd is thought to intervene in the autoimmune attack and thereby preserve the body's ability to produce insulin.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Diamyd has been studied for over 20 years in 15 completed and ongoing clinical trials with over 1500 patients. All studies have indicated a favorable safety profile for Diamyd.
