Further study details as provided by Merck:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • HbA1c level change from baseline to 54 weeks compared to glipizide. [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Lower incidence of hypoglycemic events compared to glipizide [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Effects of sitagliptin compared with glipizide on body weight and FPG. [ Time Frame: over 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Change from baseline of sitagliptin on HbA1c [ Time Frame: over 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
