Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of multiple doses of TAK-379, once daily (QD), in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Detailed Description

Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disease that has reached epidemic proportions. The global incidence of this disease is estimated to increase from 120 million individuals to over 200 million by the year 2010. In type 2 diabetes, multiple metabolic defects contribute to hyperglycemia. These include insulin resistance, inadequate insulin secretion, and excessive hepatic glucose production. Nine classes of antihyperglycemic agents are currently approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (insulin, sulfonylureas, biguanides, alpha-glycosidase inhibitors, thiazolidinediones, glinides, glucagon-like peptide analogues, amylin analogues, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors). Each class acts by a unique mechanism on 1 or more of the metabolic defects.

Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited is developing TAK-379, a non-thiazolidinedione partial proliferator-activated receptor agonist for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Study participation is anticipated to be approximately 4.5 months.
