- Patients who are drug-naïve at screening visit or treat with any of insulin, thiazolidine dione, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor within 10 weeks prior to informed consent.
- Acute coronary syndrome, stroke or transient ischemic attack within 12 weeks prior to informed consent
- Indication of liver disease, defined by serum levels of either alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, or alkaline phosphatase above 3 x upper limit of normal as determined during screening and/or switch/washout/placebo run-in period
- Impaired renal function, defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<45 mL/min/1.73m2 (Japanese equation) as determined during screening and/or switch/washout/placebo run-in period
