Drug: sitagliptin 100 mg q.d./metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day Drug: comparator: placebo to match sitagliptin 100 mg q.d./metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day |
Phase 3 |
| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Investigator) Primary Purpose: Treatment |

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Change From Baseline in A1C at Week 18 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]A1C was measured as a percent. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 18 A1C percent minus the Week 0 A1C percent.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Change From Baseline in FPG at Week 18 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Change from baseline at Week 18 is defined as Week 18 FPG minus Week 0 FPG.
- Change From Baseline in 2 Hr-PMG at Week 18 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Change from baseline at Week 18 is defined as Week 18 minus Week 0.
- Change From Baseline in A1C at Week 30 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 30 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]A1C was measured as a percent. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 30 A1C percent minus the Week 0 A1C percent.

|---|---|
| Experimental: sitagliptin 100 mg once a day (q.d.)/metformin ≥1500 mg a day |
Drug: sitagliptin 100 mg q.d./metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day

| Placebo Comparator: sitagliptin 100 mg placebo q.d./ metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day |
Drug: comparator: placebo to match sitagliptin 100 mg q.d./metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day
Patients will receive placebo to match sitagliptin 100 mg q.d. and open-label metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day for up to 30 weeks. Sitagliptin 100 mg q.d. and metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day will be administered as oral tablets.
