This study is designed to test the hypothesis that the treatment-induced reductions in the ambulatory aortic pressure are more pronounced in the group of dapagliflozin than in the group of placebo (benefit/risk and ethical assessment) and its effects on arterial stiffness and urine albumin excretion in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Phase 1
Conditions
A study of the effects of dapagliflozin on ambulatory aortic pressure, arterial stiffness and urine albumin excretion in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
