Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effect of LIK066 on Glucose Absorption in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (NCT NCT01915849)

NCT ID: NCT01915849

Last Updated: 2015-02-06

Results Overview

Glucose fluxes during a mixed meal were measured using a dual glucose tracer method and non-steady state Steele equations. The rate of appearance of meal (or exogenous) glucose in the blood (also referred to as intestinal glucose absorption or Ra meal) after a mixed meal following LIK066 administration on Days 1 and 4 was the primary PD assessment in this study.The postprandial AUC was calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule. The sample collected at 7 hours after the start of the infusion was treated as the pre-meal, 0 hour measurement for the AUC0-5 hr calculation.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1 and Day 4 (pre-meal, every half hour till 5 hour on Day 1 and Day 4)

Population: The pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis set included all patients with any available PD data, who received any study drug and experienced no protocol deviations with relevant impact on PD data.

Glucose fluxes during a mixed meal were measured using a dual glucose tracer method and non-steady state Steele equations. The rate of appearance of meal (or exogenous) glucose in the blood (also referred to as intestinal glucose absorption or Ra meal) after a mixed meal following LIK066 administration on Days 1 and 4 was the primary PD assessment in this study.The postprandial AUC was calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule. The sample collected at 7 hours after the start of the infusion was treated as the pre-meal, 0 hour measurement for the AUC0-5 hr calculation.
