Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in 24 h UGE (g/24 h) After Seven Days of Treatment With Empagliflozin 2.5 mg, 10 mg, or 25 mg, or Placebobaseline (Day -1) and 7 days after first drug administration (Day 7)

Change of urinary glucose excretion (UGE) (g/24 h) from baseline (refers to the last measurement prior to the first intake of any randomised trial medication) after seven days of treatment with empagliflozin 2.5 mg, 10 mg, or 25 mg, or placebo.

The treatment effect was estimated on the basis of the least square mean treatment difference at Day 7 extracted from the primary analysis model.

The primary endpoint is exploratory.
