Brief Summary:
Study D5553C00002 is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, Phase 3 study to compare the safety and efficacy of exenatide once weekly (EQW) added to titrated basal insulin glargine with or without metformin to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine with or without metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Eligible patients will be randomized at Visit 5 (Day 1) to receive either EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin ≥1500 mg/day, or placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin ≥1500 mg/day, during the 28-week treatment period.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in HbA1c From Baseline to Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the change from baseline in HbA1c achieved with exenatide once weekly (EQW) added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin, after 28 weeks of double-blind treatment. SU= sulfonylurea.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in Body Weight From Baseline to Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the change from baseline in body weight achieved with EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin, after 28 weeks of double-blind treatment.

  2. Change From Baseline to Week 28 in 2-hour Postprandial Glucose After a Standard Meal Tolerance Test (MTT) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the change from baseline in 2-hour postprandial glucose after a standard MTT achieved with EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin, after 28 weeks of double-blind treatment.

  3. Percentage of Participants Achieving HbA1c <7.0% at Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the percentage of participants achieving HbA1c <7.0% between EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin, after 28 weeks of double-blind treatment.

  4. Change From Baseline to Week 28 in Daily Insulin Dose [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the change from baseline in daily insulin dose achieved with EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin, after 28 weeks of double-blind treatment.

  5. Percentage of Participants Achieving HbA1c <7.0% at Week 28, No Weight Gain at Week 28, and No Major Hypoglycemia Over 28 Weeks [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the percentage of participants achieving HbA1c <7.0% at Week 28, no weight gain at Week 28, and no major hypoglycemia over 28 weeks between EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin.

  6. Change in Seated Systolic Blood Pressure From Baseline to Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]
    To compare the change from baseline in seated systolic blood pressure achieved with EQW added to titrated basal insulin glargine to placebo added to titrated basal insulin glargine, with or without metformin, after 28 weeks of double-blind treatment.
