Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Sitagliptin 25 mg Drug: Sitagliptin
25 mg (one 25-mg tablet) once daily
Other Name: MK-0431
Active Comparator: Glipizide 2.5 mg - 20 mg Drug: Glipizide

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c After Sitagliptin Treatment [ Time Frame: Baseline / Week 54 ]
    Change from baseline in mean hemoglobin A1c after treatment with sitagliptin for 54 weeks. Hemoglobin A1c is the percent of hemoglobin that is glycated. Results for the glipizide arm are not reported in this table because the primary outcome measure is for the sitagliptin arm only.

  2. Number of Participants With Clinical Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 54 Week Treatment Period + 28 days ]
    Reported experiences assessed by investigators as adverse events, excluding data after initiation of glycemic rescue therapy.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants With Symptomatic Hypoglycemic Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 54 Week Treatment Period + 28 days ]
    A symptomatic hypoglycemic adverse event is an episode with clinical symptoms attributed to hypoglycemia, without regard to fingerstick glucose level.

  2. Change From Baseline in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) [ Time Frame: Baseline / Week 54 ]
    Change from baseline in mean Fasting Plasma Glucose after treatment with sitagliptin versus glipizide for 54 weeks.

  3. Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c for Sitagliptin Versus Glipizide Treatment [ Time Frame: Baseline / Week 54 ]
    Change from baseline in least square means hemoglobin A1c after treatment with sitagliptin versus glipizide for 54 weeks. Hemoglobin A1c is the percent of hemoglobin that is glycated.
