Name Time Method Main Objective: To evaluate the dose-response relationship for LIK066 in terms of changes from baseline in HbA1c after 12 weeks of treatment across 7 oral doses (2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, or 150 mg q.d.) of LIK066 or placebo.;Secondary Objective: 1.To evaluate the effect of LIK066 on:<br>•fasting plasma glucose (FPG)<br>•urinary glucose-to-creatinine ratio (UGCR)<br>•renal threshold for glucose excretion (RTg)<br>•body weight<br>•systolic and diastolic blood pressure<br>•postprandial glucose, beta cell function, insulin secretion relative to glucose (ISR/G), oral glucose insulin sensitivity (OGIS), GLP-1 and PYY response during a meal test<br><br>2.To evaluate the safety and tolerability of LIK066<br>;Primary end point(s): change from baseline in HbA1c after 12 weeks of treatment in each of the LIK066 doses and placebo;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 weeks
