ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Mean Amplitude of Glycemic Excursions (MAGE) at Day 13Baseline (Day -2) and Day 13
MAGE is a popular metric for assessment of major (e.g., postprandial) glucose swings. MAGE is calculated as the average of differences between consecutive glucose peaks and nadirs greater than 1 standard deviation (SD) of 24-hour mean glucose. In this assessment, glucose levels were determined using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) over 24 hours at Baseline and Day 13; CGM values were further corrected for blood glucose values obtained via participant-administered finger-stick. Least squares (LS) means values were derived from a constrained longitudinal analysis model. A negative (-) change from Baseline to Day 13 indicates improvement of the assessed outcome.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in the Standard Deviation of Blood Glucose LevelsBaseline (Day -2) and Day 13
SD is a popular metric for assessment of postprandial glucose swings. The SD of all glycemic excursions over 24 hours (i.e., total of 288 glucose values over 24 hours) was determined for Baseline and Day 13. Original values were obtained using CGM and corrected for blood glucose values obtained via participant-administered finger-stick. LS mean values were derived from a constrained longitudinal analysis model. A negative (-) change from Baseline to Day 13 indicates improvement of the assessed outcome.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Maximum Incremental Postprandial Glucose Levels in Each MealBaseline (Day -2) and Day 13
The peak postprandial glucose level during the 3 hours post meal minus the preprandial glucose level 1 hour before meal was determined for corrected CGM values at Baseline and Day 13 for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Meals were standardized with respect to total calories, and protein, fat, and carbohydrate composition as well as timing of administration. CGM values were corrected using a participant-administered finger-stick test for blood glucose. LS mean values were derived from a constrained longitudinal analysis model. A negative (-) change from baseline to Day 13 indicates better control of postprandial glucose.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in 24-hour Mean Glucose LevelBaseline (Day -2) and Day 13
The mean glucose level over 24-hours at Baseline and Day 13 was determined using CGM values corrected for participant-administered finger-stick values. LS mean values were derived from a constrained longitudinal analysis model. A negative (-) change from Baseline to Day 13 indicates improvement of the assessed outcome.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Percentage of Hypoglycemic Values (Glucose Sensor Readings: < 70, <60, <50 mg/dL)Baseline (Day -2) and Day 13
Hypoglycemia, defined as low blood glucose, is a common side effect of medications used to treat diabetes mellitus type 2. The percentage of hypoglycemic corrected CGM readings (sensor glucose \<70, \<60, \<50 mg/dL) over a 24-hour period were determined at baseline and Day 13. CGM values were corrected using a participant-administered finger-stick test for blood glucose. LS mean values were derived from a constrained longitudinal analysis model. A negative (-) change from baseline to Day 13 indicates improvement in occurrence of hypoglycemia.
