A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CCX140-B in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- and Active-Controlled, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CCX140-B in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and potential effectiveness of CCX140-B in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CCX140-B in subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) based on subject incidence of adverse events.

The secondary objectives of this study include evaluation of the effect of CCX140-B on several measures of effectiveness commonly used in the evaluation of diabetes medications.

Study acquired by Amgen and all disclosures were done by previous sponsor ChemoCentryx.
