Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This 24-weeks study will to compare the glycemic efficacy and safety of sitagliptin with pioglitazone in patients with type 2 diabetes who had inadequate glycemic control despite dual therapy with metformin and a sulfonylurea.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective, open-label, randomized, parallel, 24-week study. Inclusion criteria: type 2 diabetes patients who were treated with stable doses of sulfonylurea and metformin to their half maximally dose (sulfonylureas \> half maximal dose, and metformin \> 1500 mg/d) for \> 10 weeks. \> 20 years old; A1C:\> 7.0 % and \< 11% Exclusion criteria: insulin use within 12 weeks of the screening visit, any contraindications for use of sitagliptin or pioglitazone, impaired renal function (serum creatinine \> 1.4 mg/dl), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase levels (AST) \> 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), current or prepare to pregnancy and lactation.

Primary Purpose:

compare the change in hemoglobin A1c and the proportion of patients achieving A1C \< 7% between the 2 groups

Secondary Purposes:

1. Changes in fasting plasma glucose, high sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP)
2. Homeostasis model assessment-β cell function(HOMA-β) will be calculated to assess changes in β-cell function and HOMA-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)to assess changes in insulin resistance
3. Body weight change, proportion of side effects
