Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Clinical TrialThe incretin mimetic exenatide as a monotherapy in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Exenatide is an adjunctive therapy for type 2 diabetes, and preliminary evidence suggests that its glucoregulatory effects may be similar in the absence of oral therapy. ⋯ Exenatide twice-daily monotherapy resulted in glycemic improvements and reductions in body weight comparable to that of exenatide combination therapy with metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes.
