Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) | Baseline, 26 Weeks | HbA1c is the glycosylated fraction of hemoglobin A. HbA1c is measured primarily to identify average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time. Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with baseline of response, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) or sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) use, U-500R at entry, treatment, time and treatment by time interaction. |
