The DiaPrevent Research Study
 

Looking for options for someone between 10 and 20 years of age, recently diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes?
 
If you or a family member has been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes within the last three months, then this clinical trial may be of interest to you.
 
The DiaPrevent research study aims to find out if the investigational study vaccine, named Diamyd, may preserve the body's ability to produce insulin in children and young adults with Type 1 Diabetes.  As in other research studies, the study vaccine will be compared to a placebo (shots without the active drug).  Two out of three participants will receive active study vaccine and one out of three will receive placebo.  There is a 66% chance you will receive the investigation study vaccine Diamyd if you chose to participate in the study.
 
This study might be appropriate if you or a family member:
  • Are between 10 and 20 years of age
  • Have been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes within the past 3 months
  • Meet other study entry criteria
If you qualify for this study, you will receive one shot on 4 different occasions and your diabetes will be monitored for a period of 2.5 years.  All study-related procedures, laboratory tests, examinations and the study drug will be provided at no cost.  The DiaPrevent research study will include 320 participants at 30 to 50 sites across the United States.  We hope that the DiaPrevent study will lead to advancements in the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes.
