Key exclusion criteria
- Type 1 (insulin-dependent; juvenile onset) diabetes;

- Renal disease as follows:

- Patients with known non-diabetic renal disease (nephrosclerosis superimposed on
diabetic nephropathy acceptable), or

- Renal allograft;

- Absolute requirement for combination therapy of angiotensin converting enzyme
inhibitors (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB);

- Patients who require ACEI, but not ACEI/ARB combination;

- Cardiovascular disease as follows:

- Unstable angina pectoris within 3 months of study entry;

- Myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or percutaneous
transluminal coronary angioplasty/stent within 3 months of study entry;

- Transient ischemic attack within 3 months of study entry;

- Cerebrovascular accident within 3 months of study entry;

- New York Heart Association Functional Class III or IV (Note: if a patient is New
York Heart Association Functional Class I or II and requires an ACEI, consult
with the Clinical Coordinating Center to obtain permission for the patient to be
on an ACEI rather than an ARB);

- Obstructive valvular heart disease or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; or

- Second or third degree atrioventricular block not successfully treated with a
pacemaker;

- Need for chronic (>2 weeks) immunosuppressive therapy, including corticosteroids
(excluding inhaled or nasal steroids);

- New diagnosis of cancer or recurrent cancer within 5 years of screening (except
non-melanoma skin cancer);

- Psychiatric disorder that interferes with the patient's ability to comply with the
protocol;

- Inability to tolerate oral medication or a history of significant malabsorption;

- History of alcohol or other drug abuse within 12 months of study entry;

- Known human immunodeficiency virus disease;

- Any other medical condition which renders the patient unable to or unlikely to
complete the study, or which would interfere with optimal participation in the study
or produce significant risk to the patient;

- Receipt of any investigational drugs (including placebo) within 30 days of enrollment;

- Evidence of hepatic dysfunction including total bilirubin >2.0 mg/dL (>35 micromol/L)
or liver transaminase (aspartate aminotransferase [AST] or alanine transferase [ALT])
>3 times upper limit of normal;

- Anticipate need for surgery;

- Inability to cooperate with study personnel or history of noncompliance to medical
regimen;

- Known allergies or intolerance to any heparin-like compound including heparin-induced
thrombocytopenia Type II;

- Prior exposure to sulodexide, either in a clinical setting or as a participant in
another clinical study.

- Untreated urinary tract infection that would impact urinary protein values.
