Population: Includes all subjects who receive at least one dose of study drug and have evaluable ISI data.

Insulin sensitivity index (ISI) composite using Matsuda's whole body insulin sensitivity, ISI \[composite\] = 10000/√\[(FPG x FPI)x(Mean Glucose 0-120min in MMTT x Mean Insulin 0-120 min in MMTT)\] where MMTT is a mixed meal tolerance test, Hour 0=just prior dosing. Lower values indicate greater insulin resistance.
