Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the hypothesis that treatment with study medication (omarigliptin; MK-3102) provides greater reduction in A1C Hemoglobin (a marker of diabetic severity) compared with placebo, after 12 weeks of treatment. The study will evaluate 5 different doses of omarigliptin to identify which dose is the most effective in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
