Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Beta-cell function [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect and safety of liraglutide 1.8 mg once daily compared to placebo for 52 weeks on change in beta-cell function in patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Postprandial glucagon [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect of liraglutide as compared to placebo for 52 weeks as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment on change in Postprandial glucagon levels following sustacal meal test.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. HbA1c [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect of liraglutide as compared to placebo for 52 weeks as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment on change in: HbA1c.

  2. Insulin dose [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect of liraglutide as compared to placebo for 52 weeks as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment on change ininsulin dose.

  3. Weight [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect of liraglutide as compared to placebo for 52 weeks as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment on change in weight.

  4. Remission period [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect of liraglutide as compared to placebo for 52 weeks as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment on change in length of insulin remission period.

  5. Hypoglycemia [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    To investigate the effect of liraglutide as compared to placebo for 52 weeks as an adjunctive therapy to insulin treatment on change in frequency of hypoglycaemic events.
