Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Inclusion criteria - Type-2 Diabetes Patients
- Male or female patients aged 30 to 75 years with Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and who are in otherwise good health
- Must have been diagnosed with T2DM at least 6 months prior to screening, and whose diabetes is controlled by diet and exercise alone or by stable dosage ( > 3 months) of metformin

- Type 1 diabetes, diabetes that is a result of pancreatic injury, or secondary forms of diabetes, e.g., Cushing's syndrome and acromegaly
- Acute metabolic diabetic complications (such as ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar state (coma)) within the past 6 months
- Torsades de Pointes, ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation
- Any severe hypoglycemic episode within 3 months of screening
- Use of any of the following medications:
- Antihypertensive or lipid-lowering agents unless on a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to screening
- Chronic insulin treatment (> 4 weeks of treatment in the absence of an intercurrent illness) within the past 6 months
