SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline Day 1 and Week 12

Population: The Efficacy Evaluable Population was patients who received ≥4 weeks of study drug and had HOMA-IR assessed at Baseline and on Week 12.

HOMA-IR = \[fasting plasma glucose (mg/dL) X fasting insulin (µU/mL)\]/405. HOMA-IR is a method to evaluate insulin sensitivity. The HOMA-IR score should be ≤1.0 to be considered normal. A score \>1.9 indicates early insulin resistance and a score \>2.9 indicates significant insulin resistance.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline Day 1 and Week 12

Population: The Efficacy Evaluable Population was patients who received ≥4 weeks of study drug and had hip and waist measurements at Baseline and on Week 12.

Waist-to-hip ratio compares the circumference of the waist to the circumference of the hips. The ratio is calculated by dividing the waist measurement by the hip measurement, using the same units of measurement for both. A waist-to-hip ratio \<0.95 in men and \<0.80 in women is considered healthy.
