Effect of Lixisenatide on Postprandial Plasma Glucose Compared to Sitagliptin in Combination With Insulin Glargine

Summary

Primary Objective: To demonstrate significant reduction in postprandial plasma glucose (ΔAUC0:30-4:30h) after a standardized breakfast from baseline to Day 29. Secondary Objectives: To demonstrate: * Changes from baseline to Day 29 in maximum postprandial plasma glucose excursion, C-peptide and glucagon levels after a standardized breakfast * Delaying gastric emptying (13C-acetic acid breath test) * Safety and tolerability
