This study is expected to demonstrate the anti-diabetic efficacy of 3-months treatment with GFT505 (80 mg/d) on Glycosylated Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1C) and fasting plasma glucose. And to assess the tolerability and safety of once-a-day administrations of oral doses of GFT505 for 12 weeks in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The study period per patient is 16-20 weeks maximum and is conducted as follows : * Run-in period: 2 weeks or 6 weeks for patients under fibrate treatment at screening (4 weeks fibrate wash-out + 2 weeks placebo run-in); * Treatment period: 12 weeks; * Follow-up period: 2 weeks.
