Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Pharmacodynamic: Change From Baseline in Mean 24-hour Plasma Glucose (AUC/Duration) at Week 4 (Part 1 - United States)
Pre-dose (-30 minutes), pre-standard breakfast (0 hour), 0.5, .75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9.5, 9.75, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 24 hours after the beginning of the standardized breakfast on Day -1 and Day 28

Change from baseline in 24-hour plasma glucose on the last day of treatment. On the day of the glucose collections (and the day prior to), standardized meals breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack) were provided and consumed over 15 minutes. AUC/duration is presented as mg/dL and was calculated by dividing AUC (mg/dL\*hr) by the duration in hours. Model-based least squares mean: ANOVA extracting the effects due to treatment, sequence, period and participant.

Pharmacodynamic: Change From Baseline in 24-hour Plasma Glucose (AUC/Duration) at Week 4 (Part 2 - India)
Pre-dose (-30 mnutes), pre-standard breakfast (0 hour), 0.5, .75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9.5, 9.75, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 24 hours after the beginning of the standardized breakfast on Day -1 and Day 28

Change from baseline in 24-hour plasma glucose on the last day of treatment. On the day of the glucose collections (and the day prior to), standardized meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack) were provided and consumed over 15 minutes. AUC/duration is presented as mg/dL and was calculated by dividing AUC (mg/dL\*hr) by the duration in hours. Model-based least squares mean: ANOVA extracting the effects due to treatment, sequence, period and participant.

Secondary Endpoints
Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event (Part 1 - United States)
Up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to 98 days)
Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event (Part 2 - India)
Up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to 98 days)
Pharmacodynamic: Change From Baseline in 12-hour Postprandial Plasma Glucose (AUC/Duration) at Week 4 (Part 1 - United States)
Pre-dose (-30 minutes), pre-standard breakfast (0 hour), 0.5, .75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4.5, 4.75, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9.5, 9.75, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 24 hours after the beginning of the standardized breakfast on Day -1 and Day 28
