About this trial
A total of 30 subjects will be recruited 15 with intermediate hyperglycemia and 15 in the tyep 2 diabetes group respectively. Eligible participants will undergo hyperglycemic-clamp/oral glucose tolerance at baseline and after 4 weeks of dorzagliatin treatment.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Acute Insulin secretion
Acute (first phase) insulin response (AIRg) to glucose will be calculated as the mean incremental responses above baseline (average of -20 and -10 and 0 minutes) to the samples drawn at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 minutes of the hyperglycemic clamp.
Secondary outcomes
Second phase insulin secretion
The mean incremental insulin levels between 60 to 90 minutes of hyperglycemic clamp
Beta cell glucose sensitivity
Beta cell glucose sensitivity will be calculated as increment of insulin secretion in 60-90 minutes of the clamp minus basal insulin divided by glucose change in the same period
Glucagon-like peptide -1 (GLP-1)
GLP-1 secretion Area under the curve (0-270 minute during hyperglyemic- OGTT clamp study)
