Study Summary

The study is being performed to determine whether sitagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, both acutely and chronically improves blood vessel function. Patients with type 2 diabetes who are on metformin will be enrolled in this study for up to 22 weeks in this double blinded cross over study where they will receive a sitagliptin pill once a day for 8 weeks and during a separate 8 weeks receive a matching placebo pill. The treatment periods are divided by a 4 week period. Blood vessel function will be measured by ultrasound before and after a single dose of sitagliptin and placebo, as well as after 8 weeks of treatment with each. Blood will also be taken to measure blood markers of inflammation at each time the ultrasounds are performed.
