Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine changes in bone turnover markers and calcitonin following the initiation of exenatide compared to placebo in postmenopausal women wtih type 2 diabetes.

Hypothesis 1a: Bone resorption (measured by osteocalcin and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase) will be lower and bone formation (measured by type I collagen crosslinked aminoterminal peptide in urine (Urine NTX)) will be higher when subjects are treated with exenatide compared to when subjects are treated with placebo.

Hypothesis 1b: Calcitonin levels will not vary significantly between periods of treatment with exenatide vs. placebo.
