CEO comments
Diamyd Medical was able to start the New Year by announcing that more than half
of the planned total of 60 patients in the DIABGAD-1 study had been enrolled.
Children and adolescents with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes are currently
being recruited to the study at about ten pediatric diabetes clinics throughout
Sweden. Enrolment of the final patients is expected to be completed by summer
2014, and presentation of the initial results from the study is expected in
2015. The study is being led by Professor Ludvigsson at Linköping University.

In the DIABGAD-1 study, our diabetes vaccine Diamyd® is being combined with the
anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen and relatively high doses of vitamin D to
investigate whether the treatment can preserve the patients’ endogenous insulin
production. Even a modest degree of endogenous insulin production reduces the
risk of acute and long-term diabetes complications.

The Swedish researcher-initiated DiAPREV-IT study started in 2009 and aims to
evaluate whether the diabetes vaccine Diamyd® can prevent or delay type 1
diabetes in children who are at high risk of developing clinical symptoms of the
disease. The initial results from the DiAPREV-IT-study are also expected in
2015.

Additional researcher-initiated studies involving the diabetes vaccine Diamyd®
are being discussed with various researchers groups and newly produced diabetes
vaccine is now available for new studies. For example, a trial is being planned
in the US in which the intention is to combine Diamyd® with GABA. The
combination has shown favorable results in preclinical studies and the Company
has in-licensed the rights for the use of GABA in connection with diabetes and
other inflammation-related conditions. The study protocol and an agreement
between Diamyd Medical and the researchers’ university must be finalized before
an application can be submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Professor Ludvigsson’s research group is continuing to analyze the extensive
material collected in the earlier European Phase III study and an earlier
Swedish Phase II study of Diamyd®. In December 2013, they published a scientific
paper relating to the analysis of results from 148 Swedish children and
adolescents with type 1 diabetes who participated in the earlier studies. The
authors’ conclusion is that treatment with two doses of the GAD-based diabetes
vaccine is safe and that, versus placebo, it preserves insulin production 30
months after treatment (GAD-treatment of children and adolescents with recent
-onset Type 1 diabetes preserves residual insulin secretion after 30 months,
Diabetes Metab Res Rev. 2013 Dec 3. Epub ahead of print). Such new analyses
based on the substantial database with patient data that Diamyd Medical has
compiled over the years, add to strengthen the interest in the diabetes vaccine
and researcher-initiated studies of Diamyd®.

On the second trading day of the year, the Diamyd share rose by 30 percent
during heavy trading after widespread distribution of a newspaper article about
the so called TEDDY study. The article described the TEDDY study, in which
researchers are closely monitoring thousands of children from birth to ascertain
who will and who will not develop type 1 diabetes, with the purpose of
determining what triggers type 1 diabetes. To clarify for the stock market that
the diabetes vaccine Diamyd® is not being tested as part of the TEDDY study, the
company published a press release, after which the share price declined again.

In December, I was in Lorne in Australia and attended the scientific IDS
conference dedicated to diabetes immunology research. The conference is an ideal
opportunity to hear about the latest findings and to network with leading
researchers in the field. In his opening plenary lecture, Doctor Jay Skyler
described how the key to successfully treating type 1 diabetes will be to attack
the disease from several angels simultaneously by combining various
therapeutics, and that an autoantigen-specific treatment such as Diamyd® will
constitute an essential component in future combination therapies.

Significant events during the reporting period

Major owner increased holdings in Diamyd Medical
Bertil Lindkvist increased his holdings in Diamyd Medical. Bertil Lindkvist’s
holdings in Diamyd Medical amounted to 2 979 286 B-shares as of September 24,
2013, which corresponds to 15.1 percent of the capital and 10.5 percent of the

Significant events after the reporting period

More than half of the patients treated in diabetes study with the diabetes
vaccine Diamyd®
Children and adolescents aged 10 to 18 years with newly diagnosed type 1
diabetes are now being recruited to a study with Diamyd® to investigate whether
the treatment can preserve the patients’ endogenous insulin production. Of the
60 patients being recruited at about ten pediatric diabetes clinics in Sweden
more than half have been treated.

Diamyd Medical clarified media reports on diabetes study
On January 2, 2014 Dagens Industri and many other Swedish media published an
article that originally came from TT News Agency on the TEDDY study, which is an
international, multicenter study aiming to determine the causes of type 1
diabetes. Diamyd Medical clarified in a press release on January 3, 2014, that
Diamyd Medical has no direct connection to the TEDDY study that the article
describes. Diamyd Medical's drug candidate Diamyd® is not being tested in the
TEDDY study.
