ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Matsuda IndexBaseline (Day 1) to Weeks 12 and 24
Change in peripheral insulin sensitivity was measured by the Matsuda Index. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and fasting plasma insulin (FPI) concentrations measured during the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were used to calculate the Matsuda Index. Matsuda Index=10,000/square root \[FPG mg/dL x FPI μIU/mL) x (mean glucose mg/dL x mean insulin μIU/mL during OGTT)\]. A Matsuda index of \<2.5 indicates whole body insulin resistance. A lower Matsuda Index indicates the worst disease state. An increase in the Matsuda Index indicates an improvement in insulin sensitivity (best). A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement and a negative change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Adipose Tissue Insulin Resistance (Adipo-IR ) IndexBaseline (Day 1) to Weeks 12 and 24
Change in adipose insulin sensitivity was measured by Adipo-IR. Adipo-IR= (Fasting Serum free fatty acid (FFA) mmol/L x FPI μIU/mL). A higher Adipo-IR index indicates the worst disease state. A lower Adipo-IR Index is best. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Macrophage Infiltration in Subcutaneous Adipose TissueBaseline (Day 1) to Week 24
Macrophage infiltration in adipose tissue was assessed in paraffin-embedded adipose punch biopsies by immunohistochemistry stained for cluster of differentiation 68 (CD68), cluster of differentiation 163 (CD163), C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2), C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) and cluster of differentiation 206 (CD206). A reduction in infiltration indicates less inflammation. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in C-C Chemokine Receptor Type 2 (CCR2) and C-C Chemokine Receptor Type 5 (CCR5) in Subcutaneous Adipose TissueBaseline (Day 1) to Week 24
CCR2 and CCR5 corresponding ligands' messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) gene expression were assessed in frozen adipose tissue by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Peripheral Monocyte Subsets (CD14/CD16)Baseline (Day 1) to Week 24
Peripheral monocyte subsets (cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14/cluster of differentiation 16 (CD16)\] were measured in fresh peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) samples by flow cytometry. Monocyte results are reported for Total, Classical (CD14+CD16-), Intermediate (CD14+CD16+) and Non-classical (CD14lowCD16+). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)Baseline (Day1) to Weeks 12 and 24
A fasting blood sample was collected and was sent to a central laboratory for analysis of glucose. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Insulin (FPI)Baseline (Day 1) to Weeks 12 and 24
A fasting blood sample was collected and was sent to a central laboratory for analysis of insulin. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement and a negative change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI)Baseline (Day1) to Weeks 12 and 24
QUICKI is used to measure insulin sensitivity. QUICKI = 1/(log FPI μIU/mL + log FPG mg/dL). A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement and a negative change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Homeostasis Model of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)Baseline (Day 1) to Weeks 12 and 24HOMA-IR = (FPG mg/dL x FPI μIU/mL)/405. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Homeostasis Model Assessment of β-cell Function (HOMA-%B)Baseline (Day 1) to Weeks 12 and 24HOMA-%B= (20 × FPI)/(FPG - 3.5). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
