Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Measure: Safety, tolerability, and effect of monthly sc administration of ACZ885 on an integrated analysis of vascular function in subjects with atherosclerosis and T2DM or IGT [ Time Frame: 12 weeks and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Measure: Assess the effect of ACZ885 on aortic pulse wave velocity, plaque composition, arterial strain [ Time Frame: 12 weeks and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Evaluate the effect of ACZ885 on hsCRP [ Time Frame: 12 weeks and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Assess the pharmacokinetics of ACZ885 in patients with atherosclerosis [ Time Frame: 12 weeks and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Assess the effect of ACZ885 on glycemic parameters, including HbA1c and peak glucose levels 2 hours post the administration of an OGTT [ Time Frame: 12 weeks and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Assess the effect of ACZ885 on beta cell function and insulin resistance [ Time Frame: 12 weeks and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
