ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 24Baseline (Week 0) and Week 24
Blood samples of participants were collected for HbA1c assessment. HbA1c is a form of hemoglobin that is measured primarily to identify the average plasma glucose concentration over a 2- to 3-month period. The American Diabetes Association has recommended an HbA1c value below 53 millimoles per mole (mmol/mol) (7.0%) for most participants. Change from Baseline in HbA1c was calculated as the value at Week 24 minus the value at Baseline.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) at Week 24Baseline (Week 0) and Week 24
Blood samples of participants were collected for FPG assessment. The FPG test, also known as the fasting blood sugar test, measures blood sugar levels after the participant has not eaten (fasted) for 12 to 14 hours. Change from Baseline in FBG was calculated as the value at Week 24 minus the value at Baseline.
SecondaryNumber of HbA1c Responders and Non-respondersBaseline (Week 0) and Week 24 (LOCF)
Blood samples of participants were collected for HbA1c assessment. HbA1c responders were defined as participants who had achieved HbA1c \<7%, or who achieved a decrease of \>= 0.7% from Baseline at Week 24 (LOCF).
SecondaryNumber of FPG Responders and Non-respondersBaseline (Week 0) and Week 24 (LOCF)
Blood samples of participants were collected for FPG assessment. FPG responders are definded as participants who had a \>=1.7 mmol/L decrease from Baseline FPG or who achieved a FPG level \< 6.1 mmol/L at Week 24 (LOCF).
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Achieved HbA1c <7%, HbA1c <=6.5%, or Who Achieved a Decrease of >=0.7% From BaselineBaseline (Week 0) and Week 24 (LOCF)Blood samples of participants were collected for HbA1c assessment.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Fasting Proinsulin and Insulin at Week 24/Early Withdrawal (EW)Baseline (Week 0) and Week 24/EW
Blood samples of participants who had fasted for 12-14 hours were collected for fasting proinsulin (precursor of insulin) and insulin assessment. Preproinsulin is sequentially processed via proinsulin, through intermediate proteolytic cleavage products, to insulin and C-peptide before release from the beta cell granule by exocytosis. Elevated levels of proinsulin are considered indicative of beta cell dysfunction. Insulin is a hormone that regulates carbohydrate and fat metabolism in the body. Change from Baseline was calculated as the value at Week 24/ EW minus the value at Baseline (Week 0).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Homeostasis Model Assessment Sensitivity (HOMA-S) at Week 24/EWBaseline (Week 0) and Week 24/EW
Blood samples of participants who had fasted for 12-14 hours were collected for fasting glucose (FG) and insulin (FI) assessment. The homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) is a method used to quantify insulin resistance (a condition in which natural hormone insulin becomes less effective in lowering blood sugars) and beta-cell (specialized cells in the pancreas producing insulin) function. HOMA-S is calculated using the following model to predict glucose and insulin concentrations=(FI\[milliunits (mU)/milliliter (ml)\]\*FG \[millimoles per liter (mmol/l)\])/22.5. numerator, num.; denominator, denom.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Homeostasis Model Assessment Beta-cell Function (HOMA-B) at Week 24/EWBaseline (Week 0) and Week 24/EW
Blood samples of participants who had fasted for 12 to 14 hours were collected for fasting glucose (FG) and insulin (FI) assessment. The homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) is a method used to quantify insulin resistance (a condition in which natural hormone insulin becomes less effective in lowering blood sugars) and beta-cell (specialized cells in the pancreas producing insulin) function. HOMA-B is calculated using the following mathematical model to predict glucose and insulin concentrations=(20\*FI\[mU/ml\])/(FG\[mmol/l\]-3.5).
SecondaryNumber of Participants at Various Dose Levels at Week 24/EWWeek 24/EW
The number of participants at the different dose levels at Week 24/EW was recorded. The different dose levels for Rosi + Glim are: Dose level 1, Rosi 4 mg + Glim 1 mg; Dose level 2, Rosi 4 mg + Glim 2 mg; Dose level 3, Rosi 4 mg + Glim 4 mg. The different dose levels for Glim are: Dose level 1, Glim 1 mg; Dose level 2, Glim 2 mg; Dose level 3, Glim 4 mg.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Total Cholesterol (TC), High Density Lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), Low Density Lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), and Triglyceride (TG) at Week 24/EWBaseline (Week 0) and Week 24/EW
Blood samples of participants who had fasted for 12 to 14 hours were collected for lipid profile (TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG) assessment. The lipid profile asesses the risk of heart disease. Change from Baseline in TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, and TG was calculated as the value at Week 24)/EW minus the value at Baseline.
