149A Multi-center, Double Blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group Phase IIa Study of MLR-1023 in Adult Subjects With Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes
Objectives
To assess the safety, tolerability and initial anti-diabetic activity of MLR-1023 in subjects with uncontrolled mild to moderate type 2 diabetes mellitus
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of MLR-1023 and the major metabolite, MLR-1023-M1 following 28 days of repeat dosing
Design and Outcomes
The study is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study of MLR-1023 in adult subjects with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus who are on diet and exercise therapy.
A subset of subjects per dose group will have additional samples analyzed to measure signs of MLR-1023.
Each subject will receive an oral dose of placebo or MLR-1023 once before breakfast and either placebo (placebo and q.d. dose groups) or a second dose of MLR-1023 (b.i.d. dose groups) before dinner for 4 weeks.

Hospitalizations or Emergency room visits that would impact patient safety or data interpretation: Due to poor glucose control in the 6 months prior to screening or Any bariatric surgical procedures for weight loss. Significant change of body weight (>10%) in the 3 months before screening Proliferative retinopathy or maculopathy within the 6 months before screening or requiring acute treatment, or severe neuropathy
