Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Change From Baseline in Glucose Total Area Under the Concentration Curve 0 to 2 Hours (AUC 0-2 Hrs) for Meal Tolerance Test (MTT) at Week 8Baseline (Week 0) and Week 8

Glucose total AUC 0-2 hours for MTT was measured at Baseline (Week 0) and at Week 8. After fasting for ≥10 hours, blood samples for glucose measurement were drawn at 0 minutes (at standard meal loading), 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, and 120 minutes. At Week 8, participants received study drug or placebo 30 minutes prior to consuming a standard meal.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced One or More Adverse Events (AEs)Up to 10 weeks

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.

Percentage of Participants Who Discontinued Treatment Due to an Adverse Event (AE)Up to 8 weeks

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Change From Baseline in Glucose Total Area Under the Concentration Curve 0 to 2 Hours (AUC 0-2 Hrs) for 75-gram Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) at Week 7Baseline (Week -1) and Week 7

Glucose total AUC 0-2 hours for 75 g OGTT was measured at Baseline (Week -1) and at Week 7. After fasting for ≥10 hours, blood samples for glucose measurement were drawn at 0 minutes (at 75 g glucose loading), 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, and 120 minutes. At Week 7, participants received study drug or placebo 30 minutes prior to loading 75 g glucose solution.
