Exclusion Criteria: 1. Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus (including latent autoimmune diabetes in adults), special types of diabetes or gestational diabetes mellitus 2. Evidence of acute complications of diabetes (e.g., diabetic ketoacidosis, diabetic lactosidosis, or hyperosmolar nonketotic coma) within 6 months prior to signing the informed consent form (ICF). 3. Have a known self or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, thyroid C-cell hyperplasia or multiple endocrine neoplasia type II (MEN2) 4. History of acute or chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic injury, or any high-risk factor which may lead to pancreatitis; or have symptomatic gallbladder disease that requires treatment during the trial (subjects with prior cholecystectomy can be enrolled if deemed eligible by the investigator) 5. Have had dysphagia, or any condition or disease possibly affecting gastric emptying or nutrients absorption in the opinion of the investigator, such as history of surgery affecting gastric emptying, gastroesophageal reflux disease, pyloric obstruction, irritable bowel syndrome, etc. 6.

Have a history of proliferative diabetic retinopathy and/or diabetic maculopathy that requires treatment, or evidence of other severe retinopathy that requires treatment during the study. 8. Have a known history of liver disease, including: acute or chronic active liver disease (except non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) such as active hepatitis B, hepatitis C; or primary biliary cholangitis. 9. Used strong CYP3A4 or P-gp inhibitors within 14 days prior to randomization or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer); current use with strong/moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors or strong P-gp inducers that cannot be discontinued during the trial; any prior use OATP1B1/OATP1B3 inhibitors; current use with narrow therapeutic index drugs that are substrates of CYP2C8, CYP3A4, UGT1A1, P-gp, or OATP1B1/OATP1B3 and cannot be discontinued during the trial. 10. Use of any glucose-lowering medication within 4 weeks prior to signing the ICF, including but not limited to: α-glucosidase inhibitors (e.g., acarbose), thiazolidinediones, and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) inhibitors, glucose kinase activators, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) ,with the exception of short-term insulin therapy due to a concomitant illness, stress, or perioperative period (cumulative duration ≤ 7 days). 11. Having used a Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue within 3 months prior to signing the ICF; or previous discontinuation of a GLP-1 analogue due to safety/tolerability or lack of efficacy. 12. Pregnancy or lactation. 13. Subjects with a known hypersensitivity to SGLT-2i or GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), or a history of severe drug allergies. 14. Enrolled in or participated in any other clinical study of drugs or medical devices within 3 months (or within 5 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to signing the ICF (except for subjects who signed written informed consent without any intervention of investigational product or medical devices). 15. Any other condition considered by the investigator which is not suitable for participating in this study.
