Title: A Long-term, Multi-centre, International, Randomised Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial to Determine Liraglutide Effects on Cardiovascular Events
Brief Summary: This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North and South America. The aim of this trial is to determine the long term effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular events in subjects with type 2 diabetes.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients with T2DM, diagnosed at least 3 months prior to Visit 1
* CHF (NYHA Class I, Class II, or Class III) at Visit 1

Exclusion Criteria:

* Pregnant or lactating female
* FPG ≥ 270 mg/dL (≥15 mmol/L)
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients must have a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and greater than or equal to (\>=) 30 yrs old with history of cardiovascular (CV) event, or \>= 50 yrs old with high risk of CV events
* Patients must have inadequate diabetes control (as defined by glycosylated hemoglobin greater than or equal to 7.0% to less than or equal to 10.5% at screening) and be either (1) not currently on diabetes drug therapy or (2) on therapy with any approved class of diabetes drugs

Exclusion Criteria:

  * If EF \>= 36% to \<= 40%: NT-proBNP \>= 2500 pg/ml or patients without AF (atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter) and NT-proBNP \>= 5000 pg/ml for patients with AF
  * If EF \>= 31% to \<= 35%: NT-proBNP \>= 1000 pg/ml for patients without AF and NT-proBNP \>=2000 pg/ml for patients with AF
  * If EF\<= 30%: NT-proBNP \>= 600 pg/ml for patients without AF and NT-proBNP \>=1200 pg/ml for patients with AF
  * EF ≤ 40% and hospitalization for heart failure in the past 12 months: NTproBNP ≥ 600 pg/ml for patients without AF and NT-proBNP \>= 1200 pg/ml for patients with AF
* Appropriate dose of medical therapy for HF consistent with prevailing local and international CV (Cardiovascular) guidelines, stable for at least 1 week prior to Visit 1
* Appropriate use of medical devices such as cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) consistent with prevailing local or international CV guidelines
* Signed and dated written ICF (Informed Consent Form)
* Further inclusion criteria apply

Exclusion criteria:

* Myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or other major cardiovascular surgery, stroke or TIA (Transient Ischaemic Attack) in past 90 days prior to Visit 1
* Heart transplant recipient, or listed for heart transplant
* Acute decompensated HF
* Systolic blood pressure (SBP) \>= 180 mmHg at Visit 2.
* Symptomatic hypotension and/or a SBP \< 100 mmHg
* Indication of liver disease
* Impaired renal function, defined as eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) \< 20 mL/min/1.73 m2 (CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease - Epidemiology Collaboration Equation)) or requiring dialysis
* History of ketoacidosis
* Current use or prior use of a SGLT (Sodium-glucose co-transporter)-2 inhibitor or combined SGLT-1 and 2 inhibitor
* Currently enrolled in another investigational device or drug study
* Known allergy or hypersensitivity to empagliflozin or other SGLT-2 inhibitors
* Women who are pregnant, nursing, or who plan to become pregnant while in the trial
* Further exclusion criteria apply
D: Inclusion Criteria: - Type 2 diabetes - Age min. 50 years at screening and concomitant cardiovascular, cerebrovascular or peripheral vascular disease or chronic renal failure or chronic heart failure OR age min. 60 years at screening and other specified risk factors of cardiovascular disease - HbA1c: 7.0% or above - Anti-diabetic drug naive or treated with one or more oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs) or treated with human NPH insulin or long-acting insulin analogue or premixed insulin, alone or in combination with OAD(s) Exclusion Criteria: - Type 1 diabetes - Use of a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (exenatide, liraglutide or other) or pramlintide or any dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor within the 3 months prior to screening (trial start) - Use of insulin other than human NPH insulin or long-acting insulin analogue or premixed insulin within 3 months prior to screening. Short-term use of other insulin during this period in connection with intercurrent illness is allowed, at Investigator's discretion
