Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Patients will be excluded from the study if they meet any of the following criteria: [7] Investigators, site personnel directly affiliated with this study, and their immediate families. Immediate family is defined as a spouse, parent, child or sibling, whether biological or legally adopted. [8] Are employed by Lilly or Amylin (that is, employees, temporary contract workers, or designees responsible for conducting the study). Immediate family of Lilly or Amylin employees may participate in Lilly-sponsored clinical trials, but are not permitted to participate at a Lilly facility. Immediate family is defined as a spouse, parent, child, or sibling, whether biological or legally adopted. [9] Patients who have an active or untreated malignancy, or have been in remission from clinically significant malignancy (other than basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ carcinomas of the cervix, or in situ prostate cancer) for less than 5 years.

[13] Have obvious clinical signs or symptoms of liver disease, acute or chronic hepatitis, or ALT/SGPT greater than three times the upper limit of the reference range as defined by the local laboratory. [14] Have known haemoglobinopathy or chronic anaemia. [15] Have known proliferative retinopathy. [16] Have known metabolic acidosis. [17] Patients who would be otherwise excluded due to the label of the concomitant oral therapy. [18] Female patients who are breastfeeding. AND Female patients of childbearing potential (not surgically sterilised and between menarche and 1-year postmenopausal) who must fulfill all of the following criteria: o Test negative for pregnancy at the time of screening based on a urine test. o Do not intend to become pregnant during the study. o Have practiced a reliable method of birth control (oral contraceptives or Norplant®; diaphragms with contraceptive jelly; cervical caps with contraceptive jelly; condoms with contraceptive foam; intrauterine devices; partner with vasectomy) for 3 months prior to screening. o Agree to continue to use a reliable method of birth control (oral contraceptives or Norplant®; diaphragms with contraceptive jelly; cervical caps with contraceptive jelly; condoms with contraceptive foam; intrauterine devices; partner with vasectomy) during the study, as determined by the investigator. [19] Receive chronic (lasting longer than 2 weeks) systemic glucocorticoid therapy (excluding topical and inhaled preparations) or have received such therapy within 2 weeks immediately prior to Visit 1. [20] Have had more than one episode of severe hypoglycaemia (defined as requiring assistance of a third party due to disabling hypoglycaemia) within 6 months prior to entry into the study. [21] Have participated in an interventional medical, surgical, or pharmaceutical

| Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to determine whether exenatide given subcutaneously twice daily provides better HbA1c control, with minimal weight gain, than basal insulin given subcutaneously once daily for six months in patients with type 2 diabetes not adequately controlled using a combination of oral anti-diabetic therapy and are a higher risk population (see section 4.1.1) as measured by the proportion of patients who have achieved HbA1c = 7.4% with minimal weight gain (= 1kg).; Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of the study are to compare exenatide and insulin glargine with respect to: •Proportion of patients who have achieved HbA1c = 7.4% and = 0.5kg weight gain •Fasting serum glucose (FSG) •The proportion of patients achieving: oHbA1c = 7.4% oHbA1c < 7% oHbA1c < 6.5% •7 point self monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) profile •Changes in cardiovascular risk parameters: oBMI (body mass index), waist circumference, waist/hip ratio. Weight change in kg and % plus the proportion of patients achieving 5% and 10% weight change. oSystolic and diastolic BP (blood pressure). oLipid profile. •Hypoglycaemia rate per patient (adjusted for 30 days), incidence and severity •Noctural hypoglycaemia •Safety and Tolerability •Patient reported Quality of Life •Healthcare Resource Utilisation ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients achieving HbA1c = 7.4% with minimal weight gain (= 1kg). | — |
