Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Inclusion Criteria (during Screening and Run-in period):

For patients diagnosed with diabetes during screening who have a normal fasting glucose but an elevated two-hour glucose during an OGTT, the HbA1c must be ≥ 6%.
- Duration since diagnosis less than two years by date of randomization.
- BMI ≥ 85th percentile documented at time of diagnosis or at screening.
- Fasting C-peptide at screening (drawn at least one week after treatment for ketosis or acidosis, if applicable) \> 0.6 ng/mL.
- Absence of pancreatic autoimmunity (both GAD and ICA512 negative).
- Age 10-17, with randomization prior to 18th birthday.
- Signed informed consent/assent forms for the pre-randomization period.
- A family member or adult closely involved in the daily activities of the child agrees to participate in the child's treatment.

- Participating in another interventional research study protocol in the past 30 days.
- Genetic syndrome or disorder known to affect glucose tolerance other than diabetes.
- Patient on inhaled steroids at dose above 1000 mcg daily Flovent equivalent.
