Brief summary

This study is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-center study in adult patients with type 2 diabetes. It will evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral GLY-200. Subjects will participate in a ≤ 18-day screening period followed by a metformin washout period of approximately 14 days, and an inpatient period of 16 days. Approximately 48 subjects will be randomized to 1 of 3 active treatment groups or 1 of 3 placebo groups. Dosing will occur for 14 days. A follow-up clinic visit will occur on Day 21 \[End of Study (EOS)\] or Early Termination (ET).

Interventions

0.5 g GLY-200 (1 x 0.5 g capsule) BID for 14 days (n=12)

DRUGPlacebo
