Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change From Baseline in HbA1c (Hemoglobin A1C) at Week 18
HbA1c is measured as a percent. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 18 HbA1c percent minus the Week 0 HbA1c percent.
Baseline and 18 Weeks
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Change From Baseline in FPG (Fasting Plasma Glucose) at Week 18
Baseline and 18 Weeks
Change From Baseline in 2-hour PMG (Post-meal Glucose) at Week 18

PLACEBO COMPARATORPlacebo
Interventions
Sitagliptin 100mg tablet each day for 54 weeks. All subjects will be given placebo to sitagliptin for a 2 week period.
Subjects taking 4mg or greater rosiglitazone at screening will enter a 6 week stable dose period followed by a 54 week treatment period. Subjects who are taking less than 4mg/day or no rosiglitazone at screening will be titrated to a stable dose of at least 4mg over a a maximum of 8 weeks followed by a dose stable period of up to 12 weeks then a 54 week treatment period. Total treatment will be up to 77 weeks.
Subjects taking 1500mg or greater metformin at screening will enter a 6 week stable dose period followed by a 54 week treatment period. Subjects who are taking less than 1500mg/day or no metformin at screening will be titrated to a stable dose of at least 1500mg over a a maximum of 8 weeks followed by a dose stable period of up to 12 weeks then a 54 week treatment period. Total treatment will be up to 77 weeks.
Subjects not meeting specific glycemic controls during the 54-week treatment period will use glipizide as rescue therapy. Glipizide will be titrated in 5mg doses up to a maximum 40mg each day. (In Canada, the rescue therapy will be a sulfonylurea agent marketed in that country.)
