Comparator: placebo

Drug

sitagliptin 100 mg & 200 mg matching Placebo tablets q.d. (once daily) for 7 days.

Primary outcomes

  1. 24-hour Weighted Mean Glucose (WMG)

    Time frame: Day 7 of Treatment Period I. Due to a carry-over effect that was observed between treatment periods, efficacy results are presented from Treatment Period I only.
