Efficacy of Exenatide Once Weekly and Once-Daily Insulin Glargine in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Treated With Metformin Alone or in Combination With Sulfonylurea (DURATION - 3)

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of 2.0 mg exenatide once weekly and insulin glargine, titrated to glucose targets using the algorithm described by Yki- Järvinen et al.(2007), with respect to glycemic improvements, body weight, fasting lipids, safety, and tolerability.
