ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 12Baseline, Week 12The dose-response relationship of LIK066 as measured by percent change from baseline in body weight relative to placebo after 12 weeks of treatment.
SecondaryResponder Rates According to Percentage Decrease in Body Weight From Baseline to Week 12Baseline, Week 12
The responder rates according to percentage decrease in body weight either ≥ 3%, ≥ 5% or ≥ 10%, from baseline at Week 12, for the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12 No Statistical Analysis for \>=5% and \>=10% was not calculated due to division by zero
SecondaryPercentage Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 12 in Dysglycemic Participants and Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)Baseline, Week 12The dose-response relationship for weight loss in dysglycemic participants and participants with T2DM. Percentage change from baseline in body weight at Week 12.
SecondaryChange From Baseline at Week 12 on Waist Circumference at Umbilical LevelBaseline, Week 12
Waist circumference will be measured to the nearest 0.1 cm in a standing position, at the end of a normal expiration, using a tape at the level of umbilicus. For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
SecondaryPercentage Change From Baseline at Week 12 on Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)Baseline, Week 12
HbA1c will be measured from a blood sample obtained and analyzed at a central laboratory. For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
SecondaryChange From Baseline at Week 12 on Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)Baseline, Week 12
FPG will be measured from a blood sample obtained after an overnight fast (at least 8h after last evening food intake) at a central laboratory. For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
SecondaryChange From Baseline at Week 12 on Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)Baseline, Week 12
After the subject has been sitting for 5 minutes with the back supported and both feet placed on the floor, SBP will be measured three times using the automatic BP monitor and an appropriate size cuff. For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
SecondaryChange From Baseline at Week 12 on Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP)Baseline, Week 12
After the subject has been sitting for 5 minutes with the back supported and both feet placed on the floor, DBP will be measured three times using the automatic BP monitor and an appropriate size cuff. For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
SecondaryPercentage Change From Baseline at Week 12 on Fasting Lipid Profile - Triglycerides (TG)Baseline, Week 12
Fasting lipid profile (Triglycerides (TG)), will be measured on blood samples obtained after an overnight fast and analyzed at a central laboratory For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
SecondaryPercentage Change From Baseline at Week 12 on Fasting Lipid Profile - Total CholesterolBaseline, Week 12
Fasting lipid profile (total cholesterol), will be measured on blood samples obtained after an overnight fast and analyzed at a central laboratory For the overall population and each of the subgroups (Dysglycemic and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis (T2DM)) from Baseline to Week 12
