Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- BMI 27-36 kg/m2 inclusive and at least two additional features of the metabolic
syndrome or a first degree relative with a history of type 2 diabetes mellitus. BMI =
Weight/height², (where weight is in kg, height in m).

- Male or female aged 30 to 65 years, inclusive, at screening.

- Female subjects must be post-menopausal (i.e. >6 months without menstrual period),
surgically sterile, or using effective contraceptive measures (oral contraceptives,
Norplant Depo-Provera) or intra-uterine devices (IUD) (a diaphragm with spermicide or
a condom with spermicide). Women of childbearing potential must use effective
contraceptive measures for at least 1 month prior to visit 1, and should continue to
use the same contraceptive method during the study and for 30 days after
discontinuing study treatment.

- Willing and able to provide a signed and dated written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus defined as an HbA1c level >6.5% or a fasting
plasma glucose of > 7.0 mmol/L. If fasting plasma glucose is between 6.1 and 7.0
mmol/L then a 75 g oral glucose test will be performed to exclude diabetes mellitus.

- Subjects who have initiated lipid lowering therapy within the last 6 months and
subjects who have increased the dose of these therapies within the last 3 months
prior to study start.

- Subjects who are taking Non Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs, fibrates,
anticoagulants or cardiovascular medications (β-blockers, nitrates, calcium
antagonists, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II antagonists, alpha blockers, diuretics,
centrally acting anti-hypertensives, directly acting antihypertensives e.g.,
diazoxide, digoxin, anti-arrhythmics) and are unable to stop these medications for
the duration of the study.

- Exposure to a thiazolidinedione (TZD) or other PPAR-γ agonist (e.g. rosiglitazone,
troglitazone, pioglitazone, G1262570) within the last 4 months or participation in a
clinical study involving a TZD or PPAR-γ agonist.

- Subjects who have required the use of any anti-diabetic medication at any time.

- Use of any investigational drug within 30 days preceding the first dose of medication
at the start of the study.

- Subjects with a documented history of significant hypersensitivity (e.g. difficulty
swallowing, difficulty breathing, tachycardia or skin reaction) to thiazolidinediones
or PPAR-γ agonists.

- Systolic blood pressure >160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure >100 mmHg or receiving
antihypertensive therapy.

- Subjects with unstable or severe angina (requiring continual therapy) or congestive
heart failure.

- Presence of clinically significant hepatic disease.

- Clinically significant anaemia.

- Subjects with creatinine clearance <40 mL/min.

- Women who are lactating, pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the course of
the study.

- Alcohol or drug abuse within the last 6 months.
