Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Sitagliptin
Participants in the Sitagliptin treatment sequence will receive sitagliptin in Phase A and placebo to glipizide in Phase B.
One (participants with visit 1 estimated creatinine clearance <30 mL/min or undergo regular dialysis) or Two (participants with visit 1 creatinine clearance of =30 to <50 mL/min; not on dialysis) tablets of 25 mg Sitagliptin daily.
Other Names:
  • MK0431
One 5 mg glipizide tablet per day. The dose of glipizide administered per day may be increased after 2 weeks and at 2-week intervals thereafter up to 20 mg based upon fingerstick glucose determinations.
One placebo to glipizide 5 mg tablet per day. The dose of placebo to glipizide administered per day may be increased after 2 weeks and at 2-week intervals thereafter up to 20 mg based upon fingerstick glucose determinations.
PLACEBO_COMPARATOR: Placebo
Participants in the Placebo treatment sequence will receive placebo to sitagliptin in Phase A and glipizide in Phase B.
One 5 mg glipizide tablet per day. The dose of glipizide administered per day may be increased after 2 weeks and at 2-week intervals thereafter up to 20 mg based upon fingerstick glucose determinations.
One (participants with visit 1 estimated creatinine clearance <30 mL/min or undergo regular dialysis) or Two (participants with visit 1 creatinine clearance of =30 to <50 mL/min and not on dialysis) tablets of placebo to sitagliptin 25 mg daily.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety and Tolerability of Sitagliptin After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Week 0 through Week 12
Safety and tolerability were measured in terms of the number of patients with clinical adverse experiences (CAEs), serious CAEs, drug-related CAEs, laboratory adverse experiences (LAEs), serious LAEs, and drug-related LAEs. Drug-relationship was assessed by the study investigator according to his/her best clinical judgment.
Week 0 through Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety and Tolerability of Sitagliptin Over 54 Weeks
Time Frame: Week 0 through Week 54
Safety and tolerability were measured in terms of the number of patients with clinical adverse experiences (CAEs), serious CAEs, drug-related CAEs, laboratory adverse experiences (LAEs), serious LAEs, and drug-related LAEs. Drug-relationship was assessed by the study investigator according to his/her best clinical judgment.
Week 0 through Week 54
