| Main Objective: To determine the dose-dependent effects of avosentan administered orally once daily on albuminuria, as measured by the albumin creatinine ratio (ACR), in type 2 diabetic patients with diabetic kidney disease;Secondary Objective: To determine the safety and tolerability of avosentan administered orally once daily in type 2 diabetic patients with diabetic kidney disease.;Primary end point(s): Relative change in ACR from Week 0 (Study Visit 5, baseline and randomisation) to Week 12 (Study Visit 9, end-of-treatment) | — |
