PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Prior to the start of administration (Baseline) and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 52, or discontinuation

Population: Subjects who were treated with at least 1 tablet of the test product, and whose blood glucose level was measured at least once after test product administration were included in the glucose metabolism analysis set. However, subjects who violated inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria were excluded.

The number of subjects whose FBS level reached or exceeded 126 mg/dL (200 mg/dL, non-FBS level) at least once during the test product administration period as well as the incidence were determined. Also, for 110 mg/dL and above (140 mg/dL, non-FBS level), the number of subjects were determined in the same way.
