Brief Summary

Current therapies targeting albuminuria in diabetic nephropathy leave residual urinary albumin secretion, which meanwhile leave residual cardiovascular risk. Previous studies demonstrated that sulodexide could reduce albuminuria in type 2 diabetic patients. But no data concerning Chinese population is available. The investigators aim to provide evidence of effects of sulodexide on diabetic nephropathy in Chinese diabetic patients. Further the investigators also test the hypothesis that sequential administration of intravenous and oral replacement of the drug would gain an earlier and greater reduction of albuminuria, compared with oral use only.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in urine albumin/creatinine ratio

    conversion to normoalbuminuria and at least a 25% reduction in UACR opposed to baseline, or 50% reduction in UACR opposed to baseline

    52th week since the commence of therapy

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in urine albumin/creatinine ratio and serum creatinine

    before and 2nd,12th,24th,36th and 60th week since the commence of therapy

Study Arms (2)

sequencial use of sulodexide

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be given sulodexide 1200 LSU per day intravenously for 2 weeks. Then patients will receive 1000 LSU per day orally for 50 weeks.

Drug: intravenous use of sulodexide followed by oral use

oral use of sulodexide

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients allocated to oral group will received 1000 LSU per day orally for 52 weeks

Drug: use of sulodexide orally only

Interventions
