The study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in volunteers with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus type 1 (within 6 weeks after diagnosis). The purpose of the clinical trial is to confirm the effect of 360mg Verapamil sustained release (SR) administered orally once daily (titrated over the first 3 months from 120 mg to 360 mg) on the preservation of beta-cell function measured as stimulated C-peptide after 12 months compared to placebo. The study has a cross-over design and a duration of approximately 24 months, consisting of 3 telephone visits and 7 visits at the trial site. The duration of the treatment phase with verapamil is 12 months, and an additional (optional) follow-up visit will be carried out 12 months after completion of the study. The study procedures are identical in all 20 clinical centres across Europe and the UK.
