Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Changes in area under the curve (AUC0-3h glucose) from 0 hour to 3 hours after glucose loading in 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) from before the start of Imeglimin treatment to 20 weeks after the start of treatment | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) Change in AUC0-3h glucose during 75g OGTT from before to 1 week after imeglimin administration 2) Changes in AUC glucose during 75 g OGTT from before to 1 week after the start of Imeglimin treatment and at 20 weeks after the start of treatment 3) Changes in glucose over time at each assessment time point during 75 g OGTT 4) Changes in insulin , C-peptide , glucagon , and free fatty acids over time at each assessment time point during 75g OGTT 5) Changes in GLP-1 and GIP over time at each assessment time point during 75g OGTT 6) Changes in rate of orally ingested glucose appearance (Ra oral), endogenous glucose production (Ra (EGP)), and rate of glucose disappearance (Rd: rate of disappearance) during 75g OGTT 7) Changes in insulin secretion capacity (AUC insulin / AUC glucose, insulinogenic index), insulin sensitivity (Matsuda index), and glucose tolerance (AUC0-3h glucose, AUC0-3h Insulin) 8) Changes in hepatic intracellular lipid (IHL), skeletal muscle intracellular lipid (IMCL), visceral fat area, and subcutaneous fat area 9) Changes in skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity (Rd), liver insulin sensitivity, adipose tissue insulin sensitivity, insulin clearance, and feedback inhibition of insulin secretion 10) Changes in resting basal metabolism, metabolic flexibility, resting endogenous glucose production, and maximal oxygen uptake 11) Changes in body weight and body composition 12) Improvement in blood and urine collection | — |
