Hollis-Eden Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is developing a new class of therapeutics for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. The investigational drug, HE3286, holds the potential to be the first in a new class of insulin sensitizers with a potentially novel mechanism of action that may improve the current therapeutic options available to a T2DM patient.
This is a phase II, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of the safety, tolerance and activity of HE3286 in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients receiving stable metformin or who are drug-naive will receive study treatment (HE3286 or placebo) for a treatment period of 12-weeks. Changes in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) will be assessed over a treatment period of 12-weeks.
