- 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.
