Study Arms (2)

Combination Therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

pioglitazone (actos) 30 mg per day and exenatide (bydureon) 2 mg per week

Drug: Pioglitazone plus exenatide

Insulin Therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

insulin glargine (lantus) will be started every morning and the dose will be weekly increase to achieve fasting plasma glucose (FPG) \<110 mg/dl. and Aspart insulin will be started before meals and the dose is adjusted to maintain HbA1c \<7.0% and postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) \<140 mg/dl

Drug: insulin glargine and insulin aspart

Interventions

pioglitazone will be started at 30 mg/day and bydureon at 2 mg/week

Also known as: actos and bydureon
Combination Therapy

the dose will be escalated to maintain HbA1c \<7.0%

Also known as: lantus
