Study Summary

The purpose of the study was to assess the effect of LIK066 on intestinal glucose absorption immediately after a single dose (immediate effect) and 6 hours following the dose (after multiple daily doses; sustained effect) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Primary Outcome

Glucose fluxes during a mixed meal were measured using a dual glucose tracer method and non-steady state Steele equations. The rate of appearance of meal (or exogenous) glucose in the blood (also referred to as intestinal glucose absorption or Ra meal) after a mixed meal following LIK066 administration on Days 1 and 4 was the primary PD assessment in this study.The postprandial AUC was calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule. The sample collected at 7 hours after the start of the infusion w
