Group Intervention Description Placebo Placebo Placebo in volume equal to exenatide Exenatide exenatide Placebo lead-in; exenatide 5 mcg for 4 weeks; exenatide 10 mcg for 12 weeks
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To test the hypothesis that exenatide (before morning and evening meals) produces a greater decrease in HbA1c than placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes and inadequate glycemic control taking metformin alone or metformin and sulfonylureas. 16 weeks
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To compare exenatide and placebo groups with respect to: *safety and tolerability; *proportion of patients achieving HbA1c<=7%; *body weight; *incidence and rate of hypoglycemic events; *glucose measurements 16 weeks
