Participant Flow
21 subjects were enrolled. 20 were randomized, and these 20 participated in each of three arms (the exenatide, saxagliptin, and placebo arms), with the order of receipt being randomized. There was an extension phase (that is, the exenatide extended-release (ER) arm) in which 8 of the 21 enrolled participated.

Baseline Characteristics
Height is reported for those who participated in the three main arms of the study (exenatide, saxagliptin, and placebo arms) but not separately reported for the extension study (extended-release exenatide). All those who participated in the extension study also participated in the three main arms of the study.
