"The past year has exceeded our highest expectations; fast track status, a successful interim analysis of the Phase 3 trial and the go ahead from the FDA for an accelerated approval procedure for Diamyd[®], says Ulf Hannelius, CEO of Diamyd Medical. "This strong momentum means that we are now entering an intensive period of preparation for potential market approval. We are proud to lead the development of antigen-specific immunotherapy for Type 1-Diabetes and work tirelessly towards our goal of making Diamyd[®] available to patients worldwide."[       ]

At the end of the financial year, Diamyd Medical had SEK 132.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, which during September and October was further strengthened through milestone payments and the redemption of warrants, and the cash on November 12 amounted to SEK 157.5 million. Diamyd Medical's expansive phase is expected to lead to increased activities, which may mean a need for additional financing in the coming year, something that is also commented on by the Company's Auditor in the Audit report.

DIAGNODE-3, a confirmatory Phase 3 trial is actively recruiting patients with recent-onset (Stage 3) Type 1 Diabetes at 60 clinics in eight European countries and in the US.
