Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Age 18-75.

- BMI 27-39.9 kg/m2.

- T2DM on treatment with metformin and inadequate metabolic control (defined as
HbA1c≥6.5 -7%).

Exclusion Criteria:

- Pregnancy (all women of child-bearing age, unless on treatment with contraceptive
methods, will undergo a pregnancy test)

- Breastfeeding

- Intolerance/allergy to dapagliflozin.

- Treatment with antidiabetic drug other than metformin.

- Impaired kidney function: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60
ml/min/1.73m2 (calculated using the CKD-EPI formula).

- Patients with established cardiovascular disease.

- Previous or current history of cancer of any kind.

- Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure≥160 mmHg or diastolic blood
pressure≥110 mmHg, despite adequate antihypertensive treatment).

- History of liver tumour or acute or chronic liver disease with impaired liver
function: total bilirubin levels> 2.0 mg / dl or GOT/GPT levels three times higher
than normal upper limit.

- Known HIV infection or active HBV or HCV infection.

- Other serious underlying diseases, which could affect the patient's ability to
participate in the study.

- Reduced life expectancy (<12 months) due to advanced or terminal concomitant diseases.

In addition, female patients of child-bearing age will be advised to use contraceptive
methods during the study period, given the contraindication of dapagliflozin and metformin
during pregnancy as per normal clinical practice.
