Age minimum: 18 Years
Age maximum: N/A
Gender: All
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Intervention(s)
Drug: Vildagliptin
Primary Outcome(s)
Glucagon counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia of the last 30 min of the 2.5 mM hypoglycemic clamp after 4 weeks treatment
Secondary Outcome(s)
The 'insulin secretion rate relative to glucose' at the hypoglycemic clamp step after 4 weeks treatment
Safety based primarily on frequency of adverse events, number of notable abnormal laboratory values, and frequency and severity of hypoglycemic events
Change from baseline on hemoglobinA1c (HbA1c)and fasting plasma glucose
Glucagon counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia assessed as glucagon Cmax of the 2.5 mM hypoglycemic clamp step after 4 weeks treatment
