Diamyd Medical and UCLA advance therapeutic development for type 1 diabetes
Diamyd Medical (Nasdaq Stockholm First North, Ticker: DMYD B) announced today that Diamyd Medical has agreed to further advance its Antigen Based Technology together with researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Strong synergistic effects have earlier been reported in an animal model receiving GABA in combination with either GAD65 or proinsulin. This new preclinical study will evaluate if GABA in combination with both autoantigens improves efficacy even further. Diamyd Medical licenses exclusive rights from UCLA for the therapeutic use of GABA alone or in combination
