60The objectives of this study is to
evaluate the safety and influence of treatment with GAD-Alum (Diamyd) combined with Vitamin D and Ibuprofen on preservation of residual insulin secretion in recently diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes
evaluate how the above mentioned treatments influence the immune system of the subjects and interact with any viral infections
evaluate the safety and influence of treatment with double dose of GAD-Alum (Diamyd) plus Vitamin D on the immune system, viral infections, and on preservation of residual insulin secretion in recently diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes
