Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to obtain information on efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin in Japanese patients with Type 2 Diabetes. This will be done by comparing the effect of dapagliflozin to placebo when given in oral doses.

Inclusion criteria

* Japanese Subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. * Strictly/relatively treatment naïve Subjects with HbA1c ≥ 7.0% and ≤ 10%, or Subjects treated with single or two (less than half of the approved maximal dose for each) oral anti-hyperglycaemic agent with HbA1c ≤ 8%. * Provision of informed consent.

Exclusion criteria
