Title: A Randomized, Double-Blind Study to Compare the Durability of Glucose Lowering and Preservation of Pancreatic Beta-Cell Function of Rosiglitazone Monotherapy Compared to Metformin or Glyburide/Glibenclamide in Patients With Drug-Naive, Recently Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Brief Summary: The study will compare and evaluate the effects of long-term treatment of monotherapy with rosiglitazone, metformin and glyburide/glibenclamide on the improvement and maintenance of glycemic control in patients with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus.

* Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) range of 126-240 mg/dL at Screening.
* No previous treatment with oral or parenteral glucose-lowering therapy.

Exclusion criteria:

* Patients must be taking a stable dosage of metformin as monotherapy at screening
* Patients must have a HbA1c between \>=7% and \<=9.5% at Week 2
* Patients must have a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) \<=270 mg/dL (15 mmol/L) at Week -2

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients having prior exposure or known contraindication or suspected hypersensitivity to JNJ-28431754, glimepiride, or metformin
* History of diabetic ketoacidosis or type 1 diabetes mellitus
* History of pancreas or beta-cell transplantation
* History of active proliferative diabetic retinopathy
* History of hereditary glucose-galactose malabsorption or primary renal glucosuria
