Glucagon concentration was measured at 9 points during an Meal Tolerance Test (MTT), at times -10, 0, 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes. Total AUC was calculated over 3 hours including all sample points starting from 0 minutes using the trapezoid method. The change from baseline reflects Week 12 total AUC minus the Week 0 total AUC.
Static sensitivity is a measure of the effect of glucose on beta cell secretion and is the ratio between the insulin secretion rate and glucose concentration above the threshold level at steady state. Percent change from baseline was calculated as the difference between index of static sensitivities at Week 12 and at baseline with respect to the index of static sensitivity at baseline times 100.
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.
