E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Patients must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for enrolment into the trial: 1. Provide written informed consent prior to enrolment. 2.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Patients presenting with any of the following exclusion criteria will not be included in the trial: 1. Type I Diabetes Mellitus. 2. Patients who have one or more of the following: symptoms of poorly controlled diabetes (drastic weight loss, polyuria-polydypsia) according to the investigator’s opinion, a history of diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar nonketosic coma. 3.

Evidence of any other unstable or untreated clinically significant immunological, neoplastic, endocrine, haematological, gastrointestinal, hepatic, neurological or psychiatric abnormalities or medical disease. 8. Patients who have serious or unstable medical or psychological conditions which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would lead the patient to be non-compliant or uncooperative during the study or would compromise the patient’s safety or successful participation in the study 9. Known alcohol and/or any other drug abuse or dependence. Alcohol consumption of more than 3 alcoholic beverages per day is considered abusive. One alcoholic beverage is defined as 30 mL distilled spirits, 120 mL wine, or 330 mL beer. 10. Patients who have donated blood or blood products within the previous month prior to screening or who plan to donate blood or blood products at any time during the trial and in the 3 months following the end of the study. 11. The Patient is a female of childbearing potential, is pregnant or lactating. 12. Known intolerance or contra-indication to the list of excipients of GFT505 (Gelatin, Lactose monohydrate, Titanium dioxide, Red Iron Oxide, Magnesium Stearate). 13. Patient not covered by Health Insurance System and/or not in compliance with the recommendations of National Law in force. 14. Patient who cannot be contacted in case of emergency. 15. Any medication that may interfere with study medication absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion or could lead to induction or inhibition of microsomial enzymes within 3 months prior to screening 16. Insulin or other anti-diabetic medication. Patients treated for less than 4 weeks with insulin may be included in the study. 17. Lipid-lowering drugs such as fibrates. 18. Currently taking other investigational drugs or who have taken part in a clinical trial within the previous month prior to screening.
In addition to the above criteria, patient should not present any of the following exclusion criteria according to B1 lab results: 19. Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) ≥ 240 mg/dL 20. TG > 400 mg/dL 21. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and Gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) >3 X the upper limit of normal (ULN). 22. Positive screening for HBsAg or HCV 23. Uncontrolled hypothyroidism defined as TSH > 2X the upper limit of normal (ULN). Thyroid dysfunction controlled for at least 6 months prior to screening is permitted. 24. Significant renal disease, including nephritic syndrome, chronic renal failure (defined as creatinine clearance < 60mL/mn according to MDRD formula and serum creatinine >180Wmol/L). 25. Unexplained serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK) > 3X the upper limit of normal (ULN). Patients with a reason for CPK elevation may continue in screening and have the measurement repeated prior to randomisation; a repeat CPK > 3X ULN is exclusionary. 26. Positive ketonuria |
