Funded Activity Summary

This clinical trial will test whether a combination of two safe therapies, abatacept and nasal insulin, can stop the immune attack that causes type 1 diabetes. Sixty-two children and young adults with recently-diagnosed type 1 diabetes will receive either abatacept and nasal insulin or abatacept and nasal placebo for one year to determine if combined immune therapy preserves pancreas function and decreases the need for insulin therapy.
