Summary
This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-center, multiple-dose study in healthy participants and participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

the least 8 weeks prior to Screening.

7. Has a glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level between 6.5% and 10.0%, inclusive at
Check-in (Day -2).

8. Has a fasting C-peptide concentration ≥0.8 ng/mL at Screening.

9. Has no medical history of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), hypoglycemia unawareness,
diabetic ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar coma.

Part 2:

1. Is a healthy adult male or female of Japanese descent (born to Japanese parents and
grandparents) and have lived outside of Japan for less than 5 years, inclusive.

and ≤90 mm Hg at Screening and at Check-in (Day -2). If out of range, may be repeated
once for eligibility determination within a maximum of 5 minutes.

5. Has a calculated creatinine clearance >60 mL/min at Screening and Check-in (Day -2).

Exclusion Criteria:

Part 1:

1. Has Screening or Check-in (Day -2) laboratory values of serum creatinine ≥1.5 mg/dL
for males or ≥1.4 mg/dL [females] or abnormal creatinine clearance.

2. Has a history of T1DM, hypoglycemia unawareness, diabetic ketoacidosis, or
hyperosmolar coma.

3. Has a history of any clinically significant retinopathy, which is defined as more than
moderate nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy or any stage of proliferative diabetic
retinopathy or any history of laser-treated retinopathy.

4. Has received any antihyperglycemic medication with the exception of metformin within
the previous 12 weeks of Check-in (Day -2) or the subject has changed the dose of
metformin within the previous 8 weeks of Screening.

5. Is expecting to receive, receiving or has received systemic glucocorticoid therapy for
a duration longer than 5 days within the previous 12 weeks of Check-in (Day -2).

Parts 1 and 2:

1. Has received any investigational compound within 30 days prior to the first dose of
study medication.

2. Has received TAK-648 in a previous clinical study or as a therapeutic agent.

3. Has any significant medical histories or currently uncontrolled clinical conditions,
which may not be safe for participants to participate in the study, may impact the
ability of the participant to participate in the study, or may potentially confound
the study results. The concerned significant medical histories and uncontrolled

intermittent nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, or has a current or recent (within 6
months) GI disease that would influence the absorption of drugs (eg, a history or
