[3] Have not received thiazolidinediones, or alpha-glucosidase inhibitors for longer than 2 weeks within 3 months prior to screening, and have not received any insulin formulation for more than 14 days other than in emergency situations and within 14 days prior to Visit 1.

[6] Have a body mass index (BMI) of = 25 kg/m2 and = 40 kg/m². [7] Are willing to perform blood glucose self-measurements and to use the patient diary as required for this protocol. [8] Inclusion criterion [8] applies to females of child-bearing potential (not surgically sterilized and between menarche and 1 year post menopause) only: Are not breastfeeding, test negative for pregnancy at the time of Visit 1, intend not to become pregnant during the study and agree to use a reliable method of birth control during the study (for example, use of oral contraceptives or Norplant; a reliable barrier method of birth control such as intrauterine implants with contraceptive jelly; partner with vasectomy; or abstinance).

| Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that exenatide (injected twice daily) is non-inferior to premixed human insulin aspart (injected twice daily) in terms of glycemic control, and superior to premixed human insulin aspart in terms of hypoglycemia incidence, when given in combination with metformin to patients with Type 2 diabetes who failed to achieve glycemic control with metformin alone. ;Secondary Objective: secondary objectives are to compare the two injectable treatment regimens with respect to: •proportion of patients achieving HbA1c targets of < 6.5% (DDG target) •secondary analysis of percentage of patients with at least one treatment-emergent hypoglycemic episode during a treatment period of 26 weeks. •Incidence and rate of nocturnal hypoglycemia •Blood glucose control as assessed by self-measured 7-point blood glucose profiles •Blood lipid levels •Anthropometric measures, i.e. BMI, body weight, and waist circumference •Patient reported treatment satisfaction and quality of life, as measured by the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ) and Quality of Life Questionnaire SF-12;Primary end point(s): The planned treatment period will be 26 +/- 2 weeks. The study treatment will end with visit 8 (final visit). Study medication will be discontinued, the patient has to be referred to an appropriate diabetes treatment regimen. | — |
