    A new analysis that supports the effect of the diabetes vaccine Diamyd® will be presented at a scientific conference on 13 October

    A new analysis that shows the effect of the diabetes vaccine Diamyd[®] (GAD-alum) in reducing the time a patient has high blood glucose, has been selected to be presented at the ISPAD conference (The International Society of Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes), which this year will be held on 13-15 October. The analysis is based on data from Continuous Glucose Montitoring (CGM) and will be presented by Professor Johnny Ludvigsson, Principal Investigator of the clinical trial DIAGNODE-2.The analysis shows that individuals with type 1 diabetes who carry the gene HLA DR3-DQ2, 15 months after

    24-month follow-up of Phase IIb Diamyd® clinical trial indicates continued similar progression after 15 months

    50 out of the 109 individuals in DIAGNODE-2 who were included in an extension study have now been followed for a total of 24 months. The actively treated individuals carrying HLA DR3-DQ2, in total 15 individuals, followed their expected trajectory from 15 to 24 month, showing no indication of diminishing treatment effect compared to their progression up to to 15 months. As also expected,  safety at 24 months looks good with no difference in adverse events between actively treated and placebo treated individuals.As was disclosed in April 2021, no formal statistical analysis has been

    Diamyd® Phase IIb trial results published in Diabetes Care

    Diabetes Care has published the results of DIAGNODE-2, a Phase IIb trial that evaluated intralymphatic administration of Diamyd Medical’s lead drug candidate Diamyd[®] (GAD-alum) in individuals recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Results showed, in line with a published large-scale metaanalysis of clinical data, that while no treatment benefit was seen in the full patient population, three intralymphatic injections of Diamyd[® ]had a significant and positive effect on the preservation of insulin producing capacity in the predefined subgroup of individuals that carry the HLA DR3-DQ2

    The 24-month follow-up of DIAGNODE-2 with the diabetes vaccine Diamyd® will be presented in early July

    All 50 patients who participated in the extension of Diamyd Medical's Phase IIb trial DIAGNODE-2 with the diabetes vaccine Diamyd[®] have now made their 24-month visit, and data will be presented in early July, but without formal statistical evaluation, as the data refers to a selection of the total of 109 patients in the trial. The top-line results from 15 months were presented in September 2020. The work of starting the Phase III trial DIAGNODE-3 is in full speed with identification and contact with clinics in the USA and Europe.The primary end-point for the DIAGNODE-2 trial was read

    DIAGNODE-2 results and meta-analysis with Diamyd[®] to be presented at diabetes conference

    Results from the phase IIb trial DIAGNODE-2 with intralymphatic administration of Diamyd[®] as well as the large-scale meta-analysis comprising data from more than 600 individuals treated with Diamyd[®] showing significant treatment effect in individuals carrying the HLA DR3-DQ2 haplotype, will be presented as oral abstracts by Professor Johnny Ludvigsson and PhD Ulf Hannelius, CEO of Diamyd Medical at the Scandinavian Society of the Science in Diabetes (SSSD) on March 11, 2021.The abstracts will be presented during the conference session “Diabetes classification and precision medicine”.

    Meta-analysis updated with DIAGNODE-2 results provides further support for a precision medicine approach using Diamyd[®]

    The large scale meta-analysis, previously published in August 2020, based on data from Phase III and Phase II trials in Europe and in the United States with the type 1 diabetes vaccine Diamyd[®] (GAD/alum), has been updated with data from the recenly announced (Sep 2020) European Phase IIb trial DIAGNODE-2. This meta-analysis comprises data from 627 individual patients and provides further support for a positive and statistically significant dose-dependent treatment response on the preservation of endogenous insulin production in individuals with type 1 diabetes that carry the HLA DR3-DQ2
