Brief summary

This is a phase 3 trial designed to compare the effects of twice daily exenatide plus oral antidiabetic agents (OADs) and once-daily insulin glargine plus OADs with respect to glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c, with minimum weight gain, in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes on OADs.

Population: Full Analysis Set; The last post-baseline measurement set of both non-missing HbA1c and weight was used as endpoint value. Patients who did not have a baseline weight measurement and/or missing post-baseline measurements for HbA1c and/or weight were included in the analysis as non-responders.

Percent of Patients Who Achieved HbA1c ≤ 7.4% and Weight Gain ≤ 0.5kg

Composite endpoint evaluating effect of treatment on glycemic control and weight

Time frame: 26 weeks

Population: Full Analysis Set; The last post-baseline measurement set of both non-missing HbA1c and weight was used as endpoint value. Patients who did not have a baseline weight measurement and/or missing post-baseline measurements for HbA1c and/or weight were included in the analysis as non-responders.
