Participant Flow

Single site study with patients recruited in Principal Investigator's private practice, Mexico City. First Patient In: 14Feb2007. Last Patient's Last Visit: 11Jul2008

Treatment naïve patients (30 to 78 years of age) with inadequate glycemic control on diet/exercise were assigned to treatment with sitagliptin alone (A1C 6.5 to \<8%), sitagliptin + metformin as initial combination therapy (A1C 8-12%), or standard care.
