Type 2 Diabetes
investigational material(s)
Generic name etc : Spironolactone
INN of investigational material : Spironolactone
Therapeutic category code : 213 Diuretics
Dosage and Administration for Investigational material : Oral
Ratio of paient met with either of the followings;
- In case of '300 mg/gCr =< UACR < 1000 mg/gCr at run-in period', both UACRs at two time points of the end of treatment are less than 300 mg/gCr and decrease by >=30% compared to baseline.
- In case of '45 mg/gCr =< UACR < 300 mg/gCr at run-in period', both UACRs at two time points of the end of treatment are less than 30 mg/gCr.
-Both UACRs at two time points of the end of treatment decrease by >=50% compares to baseline.
Odds ratio with 95% confidence interval and P value for the standard anti-hypertensive therapy plus spironolactone group compared with the standard anti-hypertensive therapy group are estimated by logistic regression.

3. Normalization ratio of albuminuria at the end of treatment period
4. Progression ratio of diabetic nephropathy stage at the end of treatment period
5. Occurrence of renal composite end point (doubling of serum creatinine level, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), or death)
6. UACR change and transition from baseline

1,2,3,4,5 : Odds ratio with 95% confidence interval and P value for the standard anti-hypertensive therapy plus spironolactone group compared with the standard anti-hypertensive therapy group are estimated by logistic regression.
6: Geometric mean and percent change from baseline are calculated and plotted.
7 : Summary statistics are calculated and plotted.
