Effect of Exenatide on Glucose Homeostasis Determinants in Type 2 Diabetes

July 30, 2009 updated by: Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain

6-Months Exenatide and Glucose Homeostasis Determinants in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

The purpose of this study is to determine in type 2 diabetic patients in secondary failure to combined oral therapy whether, besides improvement in glycemic control, addition of exenatide, a new drug introduced to treat diabetes before addition of insulin to current therapy, over 6 months is associated with improvement in beta-cell function, insulin sensitivity following 24-hours discontinuation of the drug.
