Safety and Efficacy Study of JTT-851 in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Drug: Placebo for comparator
Drug: Placebo for Active
Registration Number
NCT01699737
Lead Sponsor
Akros Pharma Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of JTT-851 on diabetes as well as to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of JTT-851 in type 2 diabetic patients either treated with metformin or treatment-naïve.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo and active-controlled (glimepiride), multi-center, parallel-group study to investigate the effect of JTT-851 on HbA1c and other ancillary efficacy parameters and to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of JTT-851 in inadequately-controlled treatment-naïve or metformin-treated type 2 diabetic patients.
