Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if golimumab can preserve beta-cell function in children and young adults with newly diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes (T1D).
Interventions
Participants will receive subcutaneous golimumab intermittently for 52 weeks in double-blind period, where doses will be based on weight and/or body surface area. Participants meeting response criteria at Week 52, may receive golimumab SC for 50 weeks (doses will be based on weight and/or body surface area) in an OL extension period.

Following 52-week active treatment period, participants were monitored for an additional 52 weeks for safety and did not receive study drug during this period (off-therapy follow-up period). Participants were assessed for response at Week 52 and those who were responders and still in the off-therapy follow-up period were offered option to enter open-label extension (OLE) period after active treatment period, if eligibility criteria were met. Participants weighing \<45 kg received a maintenance dose of golimumab 30 mg/m\^2 SC injection at Week 0 and q2w thereafter through OLE Week 52.
