Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of inhaled treprostinil compared to placebo in improving exercise ability as measured by change from baseline in 6-Minute Walk Distance (6MWD) following 12 weeks of active treatment in participants with PH-COPD.

A pilot randomized controlled trial will be conducted to investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of a salt intake reduction intervention to young hypertension patients in Hong Kong who had high salt intake.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of atorvastatin/perindopril fixed dose combination (FDC) S05167 as compared to atorvastatin reference drug alone or perindopril drug alone on systolic blood pressure decrease and LDL cholesterol decrease respectively in patients presenting with hypertension and dyslipidemia after 8 weeks of treatment.

This is a double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial assessing the effectiveness of personalized isometric handgrip device therapy. Approximately 230 patients who present with a Systolic Blood Pressure reading of ≤ 149mmHg and who have not taken any antihypertensive medication for more than 30 days will be enrolled.

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled and open-label, multicenter efficacy and long-term safety study of firibastat (QGC001) 1000 mg (2×500 mg tablets) administered po, QD, for up to 48 weeks in patients with difficult-to-treat/treatment-resistant HTN. Subjects will continue to take their chronic antihypertensive therapies (at least 2 classes of antihypertensive therapies) at the MTDs during the Run in Period and for the duration of the study. For treatment-resistant subjects, one of the antihypertensive therapies must be a diuretic; for difficult-to-treat subjects, the antihypertensive therapies do not have to include a diuretic. Subjects will complete subject medication diaries during the Run-in Period. If systolic automated office BP (AOBP) is ≥180 mmHg or diastolic BP (DBP) ≥110 mmHg at any visit during the study (and repeated and confirmed within 30 min), the subject will be withdrawn from the study and will receive appropriate treatment.

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label extension (OLE) of study CXA-10-301, to evaluate the long term safety and efficacy of daily dosing of CXA-10.

A little attention is paid to the AHT efficacy escaping problem, which can be explained by the AHT correction simplicity and rapid achievement of the target BP level. Nevertheless, modern statistic data on the effective AH treatment described above let us assume that AHT correction is either totally absent or is untimely in case of the "escape" phenomenon development. This could be one of the main reasons for the high prevalence of ineffective AH treatment. The aim of this study is to determine AHT efficacy "escape" phenomenon timeline and its predictors in hypertensive patients.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of bariatric surgery on cardiac function assessed by echocardiography in patients with hypertension.

Phase 3, placebo controlled, double-blind, randomized clinical study to determine safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pulsed, inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) versus placebo in symptomatic subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Part 1 and Part 2

Pulmonary hypertension is a rare condition that leads to right ventricular dysfunction and premature death. Only modest improvements of outcomes have been observed with the current available advanced specific drug therapy. Pulmonary hypertension advanced therapy is also expensive and leads to frequent adverse effects, sometimes serious. Results from a pilot study, the first-in-man experience of pulmonary artery denervation, demonstrated a clinical improvement in 13 patients with severe pulmonary hypertension despite optimal medical management. However this single non-randomized study requires confirmation. The investigators propose a prospective multi-center, randomized, single-blinded trial. Its main objective will be to assess, in patients with uncontrolled pulmonary hypertension despite optimal medical management, the efficacy of pulmonary artery denervation in reducing mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) at six months, compared to continued medical treatment following a simulated (sham) procedure. The principal evaluation criteria will be the mPAP change (in mm Hg) as measured by right heart catheterization. The study will run for 18 months and it will be necessary to recruit 50 patients. All adult patients (with the exception of pregnant women and individuals unable to receive an appropriate information and to give their free and informed consent) with uncontrolled pulmonary arterial hypertension despite optimal medical management will be invited to participate, in the absence of any exclusion criteria. The investigators will also measure changes in clinical, biological, echocardiographic and hemodynamic prognostic markers in both groups.
