The Report of the Expert Committee of the Diagnosis and Classification of
Diabetes Meilitus (Diabetes Care, vol 20(7), 1997, 1183-1197) states that Type 2 diabetes is characterised by fasting plasma glucose levels of > 126mg/dl (where fasting is defined
J as no calorific intake for at least 8 hours). It is also described therein how the development of diabetes commonly occurs over a period of several years characterised by a rise in fasting serum glycaemia levels from levels generally considered to be normal plasma glucose levels of approximately 1 lOmg/dl - through to the stated hypergiycaemia characteristic of frank Type 2 diabetes. The Report also refers to metabolic stages intermediate between normal glucose homeostasis and diabetes, including impaired glucose tolerance and impaired fasting glucose.
It is known from EP03 06228 that Compound I is useful in the prophylaxis of hypergiycaemia and hence for the treatment of impaired glucose tolerance. International
Patent Application, Publication number WO 95/07694 also discloses that
-188/10/00 td/dV thiazolidinediones can be used to treat impaired glucose tolerance to prevent or delay the onset of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, EP0306228 and WO 95/07694 do not disclose the treatment of any particular range of glycaemias.
It is now surprisingly indicated that Compound (I) provides a particularly 5 beneficial effect on glycaemic control in the range of hyperglycaemia from >126mg/dl to
140mg/dl, thereby delaying or preventing further elevation of the hypergylcaemia.
Accordingly, the invention provides a method for the treatment of hyperglycaemia, especially fasting hyperglycaemia, wherein plasma glucose levels are in the range of from >126mg/dl to 140mg/dl, which method comprises administering an effective non-toxic and pharmaceutically acceptable amount of an insulin sensitiser, to a mammal in need thereof.
In a further aspect the invention provides a method for improving glycaemic control in conditions characterised by hyperglycaemia, especially fasting hyperglycaemias, wherein the improvement is provided wherein plasma glucose ievels are in the range of from >126mg/dl to 140mg/dl, thereby delaying or preventing further elevation of the hypergylcaemia, which method comprises administering an effective non-toxic and pharmaceutically acceptable amount of an insulin sensitiser, to a mammal in need thereof.
In yet a further aspect, the invention provides a method for the prophylaxis of hyperglycaemia, especially fasting hyperglycaemia, wherein plasma glucose levels are >140mg/dl, which method comprises administering an effective non-toxic and pharmaceutically acceptable amount of an insulin sensitiser, to a mammal in need thereof.
One particular group of conditions defined herein, in addition to being characterised by hyperglycaemia wherein fasting plasma glucose levels are in the range of from >126mg/dl to 140me/dl are further characterised by hyperglvcaemia wherein plasma glucose levels following an oral glucose tolerance test are <140mg/dl.
A further group of conditions defined herein are those wherein in addition to being characterised by hyperglycaemia wherein fasting plasma glucose levels are in the range of from >126mg/dl to 140mg/dl, are further characterised by hyperglycaemias wherein plasma glucose levels following an oral glucose tolerance test are in the range of from 140 to <200 mg/di.
Suitably the hyperglycaemia is that associated with the Type 2 diabetes mellitus syndrome.
A suitable insulin sensitiser is a thiazolidinedione insulin sensitiser.
A suitable thiazolidinedione insulin sensitiser is Compound (I).
Other suitable thiazolidinedione insulin sensitisers include (+) -5-((4-((3.4dihydro-6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2H-l-benzopyran-2-yl)methoxy]phenyl]methyl]2.4-thiazoiidinedione (or troglitazone), 5-(4-(( l-methylcvclohexyl)methoxy]benzyl]

In the method of the invention, the active medicaments are preferably administered in pharmaceutical composition form. As indicated above, such compositions can include both medicaments or one only of the medicaments.
Such compositions may be prepared by admixing an insulin sensitiser, such as 15 Compound (I) and especially 2 to 12 mg thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.
Usually the compositions are adapted for oral administration. However, they may be adapted for other modes of administration, for example parenteral administration, sublingual or transdermal administration.
The compositions may be in the form of tablets, capsules, powders, granules, .ozenges, suppositories, reconstitutable powders, or liquid preparations, such as oral or sterile parenteral solutions or suspensions.
In order to obtain consistency of administration it is preferred that a composition of the invention is in the form of a unit dose.
Unit dose presentation forms for oral administration may be tablets and capsules and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrrolidone; fillers, for example lactose, sugar, rnaize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine; tabletting lubricants, for j example magnesium stearate; disintegrants, for example starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycollate or microcrystaliine cellulose; or pharmaceutically acceptable wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate.

In the treatment the medicaments may be administered from 1 to 6 times a day, but most preferably 1 or 2 times per day.
In the treatment involving compounds other than Compound (I), the required dosages and formulations are generally as described in the above mentioned patent publications which as stated above are incorporated by reference herein: An example includes the administration of 200-800mg of Troglitazone, for example 200. 300 or 400mg.
The solid oral compositions may be prepared by conventional methods of blending, filling or tabletting. Repeated blending operations may be used to distribute the active agent throughout those compositions employing large quantities of fillers.
Such operations are of course conventional in the art. The tablets may be coated according to methods well known in normal pharmaceutical practice, in particular with an enteric coating.
Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, emulsions, syrups, or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, syrup, methyl cellulose, gelatin, hydroxyethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, aluminium stearate gel, hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia:

In preparing solutions the compound can be dissolved in water for injection and filter sterilized before filling into a suitable vial or ampoule and sealing. Advantageously, adjuvants such as a local anaesthetic, a preservative and buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle. To enhance the stability, the composition can be frozen after filling into the vial and the water removed under vacuum. Parenteral suspensions are prepared in substantially the same manner, except that the medicament is suspended in the vehicle instead of being dissolved, and sterilization cannot be accomplished by filtration. The compound can be sterilized by exposure to ethylene oxide before suspending in the sterile vehicle. Advantageously, a surfactant or wetting agent is included in the composition to facilitate uniform distribution of the compound.
Compositions may contain from 0.1% to 99% by weight, preferably from
10-60% by weight, of the active material, depending upon the method of administration.
