Summary

This study is conducted to determine the most appropriate therapeutic doses of BI 10773 in Japanese patients with T2DM at first treatment period. The second treatment period is required to obtain sufficient safety data (one-year exposure to BI 10773) in Japanese patients with T2DM according to the ICH E1 guideline.
