Eli Lilly and Company78 enrolled

Overview

The purpose of this study is to help answer the following questions: * To test if taking LY2599506 for 12 weeks controls blood sugar better than taking placebo for 12 weeks. * To evaluate the safety of LY2599506 in participants with diabetes. * To determine if LY2599506 has the ability to control blood sugar in participants with diabetes. * To determine how much LY2599506 should be given to participants. * To determine if LY2599506 has an effect on a participant's weight. The study design consists of 4 study periods: a screening period, a 4-week dose adjustment period, an 8-week treatment period, and a 4-week follow-up period.

Secondary Outcomes

Change From Baseline in the QT Interval in Electrocardiogram (ECG) at 12 Weeks and 16 Weeks

Measures the QT interval in the ECG. Study GMAH was terminated after enrolling 78 participants. Given the small sample size overall and per treatment arm, numerical summaries and statistical comparisons are not appropriate and may be scientifically/clinically misleading; therefore, this outcome measure was not analyzed.

Change From Baseline in the Adult Low Blood Sugar Survey (LBSS-33 Item Scale) at 12 Weeks and 16 Weeks

Assesses 2 hypoglycemia domains, with each item score from 0 (never engages in behavior) to 4 (always engages in behavior): Behavioral (15 items; range 0-60) and Worry about hypoglycemia (18 items; range 0-72). Total score is the sum of both domains (range 0-132). Higher scores indicate greater negative impact. Study GMAH was terminated after enrolling 78 participants. Given the small sample size overall, and per treatment arm, numerical summaries and statistical comparisons are not appropriate and may be scientifically/clinically misleading.

Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) at the Steady State for LY2599506

The Cmax value measures the maximum plasma concentration at steady state following administration of doses of LY2599506. Due to the nature of the sparse sampling approach, Cmax was estimated using the posthoc pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters obtained from population PK (PopPK) modeling. Study GMAH was terminated after enrolling 78 participants. Given the small sample size overall and per treatment arm, numerical summaries and statistical comparisons are not appropriate and may be scientifically/clinically misleading; therefore, this outcome measure is not presented.

Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUC) at a Dosing Interval (AUCtau) at the Steady State for LY2599506

The AUCtau values measure the area under the plasma concentration time curve at a dosing interval at steady state for LY2599506. Due to the nature of sparse sampling approach taken for the study AUC tau was estimated using the posthoc pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters obtained from population PK (PopPK) modeling. Study GMAH was terminated after enrolling 78 participants. Given the small sample size overall and per treatment arm, numerical summaries and statistical comparisons are not appropriate and may be scientifically/clinically misleading; therefore, this outcome measure was not analyzed.
