Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Glucose Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to 4 Hours (AUC[0-4h])Baseline, 4 Weeks

Least square (LS) means of glucose AUC 0-4h change from baseline was calculated using mixed-effects linear model. The model will include treatment, sequence, period, week, and treatment-by-week as fixed effects, baseline as a covariate, and participant as random effect.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood GlucoseBaseline, 4 Weeks

Change from baseline in fasting blood glucose obtained at pre-meal.

Change From Baseline in Postprandial Blood GlucoseBaseline, 4 Weeks

Change from baseline in postprandial blood glucose at 120 minutes at week 4.

Change From Baseline in Insulin Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to 4 Hours (AUC [0-4h])Baseline, 4 Weeks

LS mean of the insulin change from baseline was analyzed using a mixed-effects linear model. The model includes treatment, sequence, period, week and treat-by-sequence as fixed effects, baseline as a covariate and participant as random effect.

Change From Baseline in Glucagon Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to 4 Hours (AUC [0-4h])Baseline, 4 Weeks

LS mean of glucagon change from baseline was analyzed using a mixed-effects linear model. The model includes treatment, sequence, period, week and treat-by-sequence as fixed effects, baseline as a covariate and participant as random effect.

Number of Participants Who Develop Hypoglycemic EventsBaseline through 4 weeks

Number of participants who develop hypoglycemic events.

Change From Baseline in C-Peptide Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to 4 Hours (AUC [0-4h])Baseline, 4 Weeks

LS mean of C-peptide change from baseline was analyzed using a mixed-effects linear model. The model includes treatment, sequence, period, week and treat-by-sequence as fixed effects, baseline as a covariate and participant as random effect.

Change From Baseline in Triglyceride Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to 4 Hours (AUC [0-4h])Baseline, 4 Weeks

LS mean of triglyceride change from baseline was analyzed using a mixed-effects linear model. The model includes treatment, sequence, period, week and treat-by-sequence as fixed effects, baseline as a covariate and participant as random effect.
