Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -The subject has received TAK-272 in a previous clinical study -The subject is an immediate family member, study site employee, or is in a dependent relationship with a study site employee who is involved in the conduct of this study (e.g., spouse, parent, child, sibling) or may have given consent to participate under duress. -The subject has a history of hypersensitivity or allergies to TAK-272, candesartan cilexetil and other RAS inhibitors (ACE inhibitors, ARBs or DRIs) -The subject needs to take the prohibited medications during the study period -The subject has hyperkalemia (e.g. serum potassium >= 5.0 mEq/L at Week -8 and -4 in the pre-treatment period, or requiring regular use of a potassium adsorbent) or onset of hyperkalemia within 2 years prior to starting the pre-treatment period -The subject has a renal disease other than type 2 diabetic nephropathy (e.g. patients with renal sclerosis, acute or chronic glomerular nephritis, or polycystic nephropathy). -The subject has bilateral or unilateral renal artery stenosis -The subject requires regular use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (excluding low-dose aspirin and locally-acting agents such as topical drugs) (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis patients, osteoarthritis patients, and low back pain patients) -The subject has a history of any of the cardiovascular diseases listed below within 2 years prior to starting the pre-treatment period: Heart diseases: myocardial infarction, coronary arterial revascularization Cerebrovascular diseases: cerebral infarction (excluding lacunar infarction), cerebral hemorrhage, transient ischemic attack -The subject has any of the cardiovascular diseases listed below: Heart diseases: angina pectoris, arrhythmia, and congested heart failure that requires medication Vascular diseases: arteriosclerosis obliterans with symptoms e.g. intermittent claudication -The subject has a clinically significant hepatic disorder (e.g. either of ALT or AST is >= 2.5 times the upper limit of normal at starting the pre-treatment period (Week -8) or at Week -4 in the pre-treatment period) -The subject has a complication of malignant tumor -If female, the subject is pregnant or lactating, or is planning to become pregnant or donate her ova before signing the informed consent form, during the study period, or within 1 month after the end of the study. -If male, the subject intends to donate sperm during the course of this study or for 12 weeks thereafter. -The subject is judged by the investigator as being ineligible for any other reason -The subject joined another clinical trial or post-marketing study within 30 days prior to starting the pre-treatment period -The subject was administered the study drug within 12 weeks prior to starting the pre-treatment period -The subject has a history of drug abuse (defined as the use of an illegal drug) or alcohol dependency within 2 years prior to starting the pre-treatment period

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Log-transformed urine albumin/creatinine ratio change from completion of the pre-treatment period (Week 0) in the completion of the treatment period Primary timeframe: From completion of the pre-treatment period (Week 0) to completion of the treatment period Log-transformed urine albumin/creatinine ratio change from completion of the pre-treatment period (Week 0) in the completion of the treatment period

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
-urine albumin/creatinine ratio at each assessment point; -remission rate from early-stage nephropathy (Stage 2) to pre-nephropathy stage (Stage 1) at completion of the treatment period; -Progression rate from early-stage nephropathy (Stage 2) to overt nephropathy stage (Stage 3) during the treatment period -Safety [adverse events] Secondary timeframe: At the completion of the treatment period -urine albumin/creatinine ratio at each assessment point; -remission rate from early-stage nephropathy (Stage 2) to pre-nephropathy stage (Stage 1) at completion of the treatment period; -Progression rate from early-stage nephropathy (Stage 2) to overt nephropathy stage (Stage 3) during the treatment period -Safety [adverse events]:The frequencies of all adverse events observed during the observation period will be tabulated by type and seriousness, and causal relationship to TAK-272/candesartan cilexetil. Adverse events are defined as any unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, reported from the first dose to the last dose of TAK-272/candesartan cilexetil. Among these, events which are considered possibly related to TAK-272/candesartan cilexetil are defined as adverse drug reactions.
