- Primary Outcome Measures
- Name - Time - Method - Change From Baseline in A1C at Week 24 - Baseline and 24 Weeks - Hemoglobin A1C (A1C) is measured as percent. Thus this change from baseline reflects the Week 24 A1C percent minus the Week 0 A1C percent. 
- Secondary Outcome Measures
- Name - Time - Method - Change From Baseline in FPG at Week 24 - Baseline and 24 Weeks - The change from baseline is the Week 24 Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) minus the Week 0 FPG.
