This trial is conducted in Europe and North America. The aim of this trial is to investigate if liraglutide treatment can increase the proportion of insulin-independent subjects one year after islet cell transplantation who required only one (single-donor) islet cell transplant.

Dose escalation of liraglutide up to 1.2 to 1.8 mg before islet cell transplant until the planned number of transplanted subjects is complete or subject is transplanted. After islet cell transplant, subjects continue to receive the reached liraglutide dose for 52 weeks. Injected subcutaneously(under the skin) once daily.

Proportion Of Insulin-independent Subjects After Receiving Only One (Single-Donor) Islet Cell Transplant
Proportion Of Insulin-independent Subjects After Receiving Only One (Single-Donor) Islet Cell Transplant.
Time frame: At week 52 after initial transplantation
Number of Hypoglycaemic Episodes
A hypoglycaemic episode was defined as treatment emergent if the onset of the episode was on or after the first day of exposure to randomised treatment and until the last day on randomised treatment. Confirmed hypoglycaemic episodes were categorised either as minor (PG\<3.1 mmol/L \[56 mg/dL\]) or severe (subject unable to treat himself/herself).
Time frame: During week 0 to week 52
Proportion of Subjects With HbA1c Below Or Equal to 6.5% At Week 52 That Are Free From Severe Hypoglycaemic Events
Proportion of subjects with HbA1c below or equal to 6.5% at week 52 that were free from severe hypoglycaemic events
Time frame: From week 0 to week 52 after initial transplantation
Proportion of Insulin-Independent Subjects
Proportion of insulin-independent subjects among all randomised subjects who had one or more transplantations after randomisation
Time frame: At 52 weeks after initial transplantation
Change in Islet Cell Yield During Culture
Change in islet cell yield from pre-culture to post-culture
Time frame: From 0 hours pre-culture to 24 hours to 72 hours
Glucose Level Variability And Hypoglycaemia Duration Derived From The Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS)
Change from baseline in glucose level variability and hypoglycaemia at baseline, weekly during liraglutide dose escalation, at 12 weeks pre-transplant, at 24 weeks post-transplant, 52 weeks post-transplant and 56 weeks (4 weeks after withdrawal of liraglutide or liraglutide placebo)
