Study Summary

This was a 10-week, placebo-controlled, randomized study to investigate the effect of injectable IL-1B antagonist, Canakinumab , in participants with impaired glucose tolerance or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) already treated on different background diabetes therapies.

Primary Outcome

Change in Insulin Secretion Rate stimulated by Liquid mixed-meal challenge. Blood samples were taken prior to and after meal for glucose and insulin at sample times: -20, -10, -1 and 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, and 240 minutes relative to the start of the meal.A mixed model with treatment fitted as fixed effect, and population and the interaction of population and treatment fitted as random effects were used for the comparison of Canakinumab versus placebo within each T2DM population.
