Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Patient meets a discontinuation criterion of P170 at the last visit of the base study (Week 20). 2.

Patient has initiated another open-label antihyperglycemic agent as add-on to metformin. 4. Patient does not agree to refrain from participating in any other double-blind interventional study while participating in this extension study. 5.

| Main Objective: For MK-0431A P170 [MK-0431A P170 (base + extension study)]: (1) Objective: Over 54 weeks, to assess the safety and tolerability of the addition of sitagliptin (administered as MK-0431A) in pediatric patients (ages 10-17 years) with T2DM with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. For the pooled study population [MK-0431A P170 (base + extension study) and MK- 0431A XR P289 (Phase A + B)]: (1) Objective: Over 54 weeks, to assess the safety and tolerability of the addition of sitagliptin (administered as MK-0431A or MK-0431A XR) in pediatric patients (ages 10-17 years) with T2DM with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy.;Secondary Objective: For the pooled study population [MK-0431A P170 (base + extension study) and MK-0431A XR P289 (Phase A + B)]: (1) Objective: After 54 weeks, to assess the effect of the addition of sitagliptin (administered as MK-0431A or MK-0431A XR) on the changes from baseline in A1C and in pediatric patients (ages 10-17 years) with T2DM with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. (2) Objective: After 54 weeks, to assess the effect of the addition of sitagliptin (administered as MK-0431A or MK-0431A XR) on the changes from baseline in FPG in pediatric patients (ages 10-17 years) with T2DM with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy. (3) Objective: After 54 weeks, to assess the effect of the addition of sitagliptin (administered as MK-0431A or MK-0431A XR) on the proportion of patients with A1C at goal (<7.0%) in pediatric patients (ages 10-17 years) with T2DM with inadequate glycemic control on metformin monotherapy.;Primary end point(s): hemoglobin A1c (A1C) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 54 weeks | — |
