- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Insulin secretion, as derived from insulin concentrations and glucose<br /><br>concentrations measured by hyperglycemic clamps following 4 week treatment with<br /><br>anakinra and placebo. In addition an oral glucose tolerance test will be<br /><br>performed.</p><br>
