Study Summary

To compare the effect on glycemic control (HbA1c) of exenatide suspension administered once weekly to that achieved by sitagliptin or placebo administered once daily for 28 weeks in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Primary Outcome

Absolute change in HbA1c from baseline (Day 1, Visit 3) to Week 28/Study Termination (Visit 11). Hypothesis testing on the primary endpoint followed a serial gated procedure with all tests carried out at a 2-sided significance level of 0.05 to protect the family-wise error rate. These tests were conducted sequentially, and are presented in the statistical analysis section below in the order in which they were performed; each test was the gatekeeper of later tests.
