- Change in HbA1c From Baseline to Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]To compare the change from baseline to Week 28 in HbA1c between exenatide once weekly (EQW) 2 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg administered simultaneously compared to EQW 2 mg alone and dapagliflozin 10 mg alone.
- Change in Body Weight From Baseline to Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]To compare the change from baseline to Week 28 in body weight between exenatide once weekly (EQW) 2 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg administered simultaneously compared to EQW 2 mg alone and dapagliflozin 10 mg alone.
- Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose From Baseline to Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]To compare the change from baseline to Week 28 in fasting plasma glucose between exenatide once weekly (EQW) 2 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg administered simultaneously compared to EQW 2 mg alone and dapagliflozin 10 mg alone.
- Change From Baseline to Week 28 in 2-hour Postprandial Glucose After a Standard Meal Tolerance Test [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]To compare the change from baseline to Week 28 in 2-hour postprandial glucose after a standard Meal Tolerance Test between exenatide once weekly (EQW) 2 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg administered simultaneously compared to EQW 2 mg alone and dapagliflozin 10 mg alone.
- Percentage of Patients Achieving Weight Loss ≥5.0% at Week 28 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 28 ]To compare the percentage of patients achieving weight loss ≥5.0% at 28 weeks between exenatide once weekly (EQW) 2 mg and dapagliflozin 10 mg administered simultaneously compared to EQW 2 mg alone and dapagliflozin 10 mg alone.
