Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Glucose 5-Hour Incremental AUC at Week 6
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 6
Participants underwent the 5-hour meal test prior to randomization (baseline) and was repeated at the conclusion of the 6-week double-blind study period. The change from baseline in Glucose 5-Hour Incremental AUC at Week 6 is computed as the difference between the Week 6 measurement and the baseline measurement.
