Efficacy Study of DiaPep277 in Newly Diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes Patients

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT00615264
Lead Sponsor
Andromeda Biotech Ltd.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if DiaPep277 can effectively protect the internal production of insulin in patients newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, by stopping the immune destruction of insulin-producing beta-cells in the pancreas. DiaPep277 acts on the immune system and is expected to prevent further destruction of the beta-cells by stimulating regulatory responses, without causing immunological suppression.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Glucagon-stimulated C-peptide AUC at 24 MonthsBaseline and 24 months

Beta-cell function, measured as change in stimulated C-peptide secretion measured 0, 2, 6, 10 and 20 minutes post administration \[area under the curve (AUC), 0-20 minutes\] at Baseline and 24 months, during a glucagon stimulation test (GST). The change in AUC was calculated per patient by subtracting the baseline AUC from the 24 month AUC.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Mixed-meal Stimulated C-peptide AUC at 24 MonthsBaseline and 24 Months

Beta cell function, measured as stimulated C-peptide secretion from 0 to 120 min post administration AUC, at baseline and 24 month measurements in a mixed-meal tolerance test (MMTT). The change in AUC was calculated per patient by subtracting the baseline AUC from the 24 month AUC.
