Brief summary
This is an open clinical study for 12 weeks of therapy to investigate clinical efficacy and safety of an add-on therapy with DLBS3233 in improving blood glucose control, lipid profile, and adiponectin in subjects with type-2 diabetes mellitus.
Detailed description
There will only be one group in this study who will receive study treatment as follows: anti-diabetic agents currently used by respective subjects for at least 3 months prior to Screening, treatment intensification (lifestyle modification), and DLBS3233 at a dose of 100 mg once daily for 12 weeks. Clinical and laboratory examinations to evaluate the investigational drug's efficacy and safety will be performed at baseline and at interval of 6 weeks over the 12-week course of therapy.
Interventions
Study treatment will be DLBS3233 at a dose of 100 mg once daily (for 12 weeks) in addition to current anti-diabetic treatment used by respective study subjects and treatment intensification (lifestyle modification)
