Summary

This study involves research about an investigational medicine called Amlexanox. The reason for this study is to find out how Amlexanox can improve type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In this study, Amlexanox is considered to be investigational (not approved by the Food and Drug Administration \[FDA\]) for type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This is a placebo controlled study. There is a 50-50 chance that the patient may either receive the study drug, Amlexanox, or a placebo (sugar pill). Neither the patient or the study doctors will know if the patient is receiving the study drug or placebo.
