5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The co-administration of SGLT2 inhibitor and GLP-1 receptor agonist would be safe and effective on glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and MAFLD better than empagliflozin or dulaglutide alone.
The SGLT2 inhibitor and GLP-1 receptor agonist would be safe and effective on fatty liver disease in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus and MAFLD.
