简要总结
It has been shown in previous study that progressive glycemic deterioration was associated with progressive loss of b-cell function, measured by the decrease in plasma insulin levels, irrespective of the therapy used (diet, sulfonylureas or metformin).There is growing evidence that thiazolidinediones could have a positive action on the b-cell function. But it has not yet been demonstrated that they could protect from a deterioration in insulin secretion in the long term. So, it appears interesting to study the long term evolution of the b-cell function and the possible protection with rosiglitazone in patients with type 2 diabetes showing evidence of loss of b-cell function with metformin alone.

结局指标
主要结局
Median Change From Baseline in the Insulin Secretory Capacity After a 36-month Treatment
时间窗: Baseline and Month 36
Change from baseline in the insulin secretory capacity was measured by the assesment of blood insulin concentrations (conc.) using the hyperglycaemic clamp (HC) technique, per intravenous glucose perfusion by a catheter. Change from baseline for insulin conc peaks (highest conc level) was calculated as the Month 36 value minus the baseline value. Insulin secretion was assessed by calculating AUC during the first 10 minutes of HC (incremental and total AUC0-10 min) and the AUC after the first 10 minutes of the HC (10-180min).
