Purpose
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study to determine the effect of ranolazine when added to metformin on glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are inadequately controlled despite current treatment with stable metformin therapy in addition to diet and exercise.

Detailed Description:
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study to determine the effect of ranolazine when added to metformin on glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who are inadequately controlled despite current treatment with stable metformin therapy in addition to diet and exercise. The study has been designed to determine the effect of ranolazine on glycemic control and to characterize the relationship between HbA1c reduction and other glycemic parameters in subjects with T2DM.
