Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Keywords

Colesevelam, type 2 diabetes, sitagliptin, glucose metabolism

Brief summary

This study will assess the effects of colesevelam, alone or in combination with sitagliptin, on glucose metabolism in subjects with T2DM inadequately controlled by diet and exercise

Detailed description

The hypothesis is that co-administrationof colesevelam plus sitagliptin results in a greater reduction in HbA1c compared to colesevelam HCl treatment by 1. improving the effects of colesevelam on fasting glucose metabolism 2. improving the effects of colsevelam on postprandial glucose metabolism

Interventions

Subjects will be given 3.75 g/day. Subjects will be given 3 tablets (625mg each) with breakfast and 3 tablets (625mg) with dinner for 12 weeks.

DRUGSitagliptin

Subjects will be given 100mg/day. Subjects will be given 1 tablet (100mg) with breakfast for 12 weeks.
