Summary
People with type 2 diabetes experience heart failure more often than do people without
diabetes. This may be due to increased stiffness in the heart as a result of diabetes. This
study will examine whether exenatide, a medication used to treat diabetes, may have
beneficial effects on the heart in people with type 2 diabetes and heart failure.
