Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Type 2 diabetic patients
  • Patients aged 20 years or older at the time of obtaining consent
  • Patients with HbA1c 6.5 or more and 9.0% or less within 13 weeks before obtaining consent (evaluated by test values after 4 weeks or more without taking SGLT2 inhibitor / metformin)
  • Patients who have been judged by their doctor to need a diabetic drug when they are first seen, or who have already taken a diabetic drug and have decided that it is necessary to add one diabetic drug.
  • Patients who have been receiving RAS inhibitors (ARB, ARNI, ACE inhibitors, direct renin inhibitors) for 4 weeks or longer

  • Dialysis patient
  • Patients with a history of severe hypoglycemia
  • Patients with hypersensitivity to SGLT2 inhibitor or metformin
  • Pregnant women, lactating patients, and patients who wish to raise children
  • Patients with BMI of 35 kg / m2 or more based on the latest measured values within 13 weeks before obtaining consent

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This multicenter, randomized, open-label, controlled study will assess the efficacy of the SGLT2 inhibitor tofogliflozin on Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) compared to metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Detailed Description
Eligible participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to tofogliflozin or metformin with stratification based on UACR (<300 mg/gCr,≧300mg/gCr), an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (<60mL/min/1.73m2, ≧60 mL/min/1.73m2), and age (<65 years old, ≧65 years old). The primary end point is change in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) from baseline after 52 weeks treatment. Changes in eGFR, HbA1c, body weight, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, total serum proteins, serum albumin, uric acid, hematocrit, hemoglobin, red blood cell count, pulse rate, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein and albuminuria class transition rate will also be evaluated.

Intervention Name(s)
Tofogliflozin
Intervention Description
Tofogliflozin 20 mg is orally administered once daily for 104 weeks before or after breakfast.
Intervention Type
Drug
Intervention Name(s)
Metformin
Intervention Description
Metformin is started at 500 mg daily and orally administered in 2 to 3 divided doses immediately before or after meals. The dose during the maintenance period is determined by observing the effect, but is usually 750 to 1,500 mg daily. Metformin is orally administered for 104 weeks throughout post-start period. The dose may be adjusted according to the patient's condition, but the maximum daily dose should be 2,250 mg.
