Assessment

Primary outcomes

Change in RHI from baseline to 24 weeks

Key secondary outcomes

Change and correlation with RHI change from baseline to 24 weeks in following items:
1) Double product (systolic blood pressure x heart rate)
2) baPWV (both sides)
3) Coefficient of variation of the R-R intervals in the ECG at rest and deep breathing (including the differences between the results at rest and deep breathing) and standard deviation of heartbeat intervals
4) LVEF, E/e' (echocardiogram)
5) Blood biomarkers
NT-proBNP, interleukin-8, high-sensitivity troponin I, receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2)
6) Renal function
Serum creatinine, eGFR, albumin excretion in urine corrected by creatinine, L-FABP in urine corrected by creatinine
7) Glycemic control
HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, glycoalbumin
8) Other laboratory tests
Blood pressure, pulse pressure, heart rate, body weight, BMI, total cholesterol, HDL-C, LDL-C, triglyceride, non-HDL-C, AST, ALT, gamma-GTP, uric acid, RBC, hemoglobin, hematocrit
9) Parameters measured by RH-PAT test other than RHI (eg. AI, HRV)

Purpose of intervention

Treatment

Type of intervention

Medicine

Interventions/Control_1

Empagliflozin 10 mg/day is administered orally before or after breakfast for 24 weeks while continuing the existing treatment for diabetes and other complicating diseases. During the treatment period, antidiabetic agents basically cannot be increased or added as much as possible, and diet therapy, exercise therapy, or treatment with antidiabetic agents other than SGLT2 inhibitors should be continued.

Interventions/Control_2

Placebo is administered orally before or after breakfast for 24 weeks while continuing the existing treatment for diabetes and other complicating diseases. During the treatment period, antidiabetic agents basically cannot be increased or added as much as possible, and diet therapy, exercise therapy, or treatment with antidiabetic agents other than SGLT2 inhibitors should be continued.
