Sitagliptin 100 mg
The Sitagliptin 100 mg group includes data from patients randomized to receive treatment with 100 mg oral tablets of sitagliptin once daily.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Week 52

Population: The per protocol population required that a participant had measurements both at baseline and at Week 52, and did not have any major protocol violations (e.g. drug compliance \< 75%, addition of prohibited antihyperglycemic agent, incorrect double-blind study medication). No missing data were imputed.

HbA1c is measured as percent. Thus, this change from baseline reflects the Week 52 HbA1c percent minus the Week 0 HbA1c percent.
