Frequently asked questions about TAK-875

What is TAK-875?

TAK-875 is an investigational small molecule developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited for type 2 diabetes mellitus. It has been studied in diabetic patients, including pharmacokinetic assessments, and reached Phase 3 clinical development. It is not described as an approved medicine.

What is TAK-875 used for in type 2 diabetes?

TAK-875 was studied for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and in diabetic patients. Its clinical program included Phase 3 studies in Japan evaluating the drug in adults aged 20 years and older, along with a Phase 1 drug-interaction study conducted in the United States.

Who makes TAK-875?

TAK-875 is developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, which trades under the ticker TAK. Takeda sponsored the clinical trial program for the compound, including the Phase 3 studies conducted in Japan and the Phase 1 drug-interaction study run in the United States.

What phase is TAK-875 in?

TAK-875 reached Phase 3 clinical development. Three completed trials are recorded for the program, and no trials are currently listed as active. The Phase 3 studies were conducted in Japan, while a Phase 1 drug-interaction study took place in the United States.

What clinical trials is TAK-875 in?

TAK-875 has been evaluated in completed trials including NCT01585792, a Phase 3 double-blind comparative study; NCT01433419, a Phase 3 open-label study; NCT01433406, a Phase 3 long-term study; and NCT01496443, a Phase 1 glimepiride drug-interaction study. Total enrollment across these trials was 1,747 participants.

Is TAK-875 the same as glimepiride?

No. TAK-875 and glimepiride are different agents. Glimepiride appears in the TAK-875 development program as the comparator in a Phase 1 drug-interaction study, NCT01496443, which examined pharmacokinetics in 28 participants. TAK-875 is the investigational Takeda compound, while glimepiride is a separate diabetes medication.
