About this study

Glucokinase (GK, also called hexokinase IV or D) can phosphosphorylate glucose to glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) in pancreatic β-cells and liver cells, which represents the first step of glucose metabolism. GK also acts as a glucose sensor and exerts a key role in maintaining glucose homeostasis. HMS5552 is a 4th-generation GK agonist or activator (GKA), which was originally licensed from Roche and subsequently developed by Hua Medicine. HMS5552 has been shown to activate GK in pancreatic beta cells, liver and intestinal epithelial cells. It regulates systemic blood glucose through a variety of mechanisms including directly enhancing insulin release (pancreas), inhibiting production of endogenous glucose (liver) and by indirectly promoting GLP-1 release (enteroendocrine L-cells).

Primary outcomes

  1. After 12-week Treatment, the Change From Baseline in HbA1c

    Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks

    Assess the percentage of Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) changes at week 12. In the group HMS5552 dose3, a subject without follow-up data for HbA1c available was excluded. And in the group HMS5552 dose4, two subjects without follow-up data for HbA1c available were excluded. So the overall number of baseline participants is not consistent with numbers provided in any of the rows in the participant flow module.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in 2hPPG

    Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks

    Using a standard meal tolerance test, to assess 2-h postprandial glucose (2hPPG). In this test, subjects were received meals standardised by China National Cereals, which supplied by Oils and Foodstuffs Corporation and contained 353 kcal, 75 g carbohydrate, 1.48 g fat, and 8.0 g protein. Collect the blood samples to detect blood glucose 2 hours after starting the meal.

  2. Change From Baseline in FPG

    Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks
