  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to compare the benefits and risks of AVE0010 versus exenatide in association with metformin, over a period of 24 weeks of treatment, followed by an extension.

The primary objective is to assess the effects of AVE0010 on glycemic control in terms of HbA1c reduction at 24 weeks.

The secondary objectives are to assess the effects of AVE0010 on body weight, fasting plasma glucose, relevant metabolic parameters in type 2 diabetes, and to evaluate safety, tolerability and quality of life.
