    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The study consists of a 12 week run-in period when all subjects are stabilized on a single dose of Avalide (300 mg/12.5 mg or 300mg/25mg dose) per day. After this 12 week run-in ends, subjects will be randomly assigned to start the addition of either Adalat XL or Tiazac XC for 18 weeks of treatment. Subjects will have a 1 in 2 chance of receiving the study drug Adalat XL and a 1 in 2 chance of receiving the drug Tiazac XC. An end of treatment visit will be done 18 weeks after start of study drug. The expected duration of the study is 30 weeks. The purpose of this study is to compare the change in proteinuria, through a urine test, while taking study drug until high blood pressure (BP) is reduced to near normal levels in study subjects with diabetic nephropathy and hypertension.

    Intervention Name(s)
    Adalat XL
    Intervention Description
    Patients will receive Avalide (Irbesartan/ hydrochlorothiazide; 300 mg/12.5 mg per day or 300 mg/25.0 mg per day) during the 12 week screening period and during the 18 week treatment period. At baseline, patients will be provided with Adalat XL at a starting dose of 20 or 30 mg. Adalat XL will be titrated during the 18 week treatment period in order to optimize blood pressure. Adalat XL will be supplied in 20 mg, 30 mg, 60 mg, and 90 mg.

At baseline, patients will be provided with Tiazac XC at a starting dose of 180 mg. Tiazac XC will be titrated during the 18 week treatment period in order to optimize blood pressure. Tiazac XC will be supplied in 180 mg, 240 mg, 300 mg and 360 mg.
