Primary Outcome Measures:

To test the hypothesis that exenatide (before morning and evening meals) produces a greater decrease in HbA1c than placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes and inadequate glycemic control taking metformin alone or metformin and sulfonylureas. [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

To compare exenatide and placebo groups with respect to: *safety and tolerability; *proportion of patients achieving HbA1c<=7%; *body weight; *incidence and rate of hypoglycemic events; *glucose measurements [ Time Frame: 16 weeks ]

Estimated Enrollment:	480
Study Start Date:	January 2006
Study Completion Date:	September 2007

Intervention Details:

subcutaneous injection, 5mcg or 10mcg, twice a day
