Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

Hypertension is the most prevalent risk factor and the third leading cause of death worldwide, responsible for an increase in cardiac events. International guidelines on cardiology and hypertension recommend the practice of regular physical exercise for the control and treatment of this disease. The main objective of the study will be to determine the effect of a Multicomponent Training programme versus a Cardiovascular Training programme on blood pressure levels in hypertensive adults. The work methodology will consist of a controlled, randomised, longitudinal and prospective clinical trial, with several simultaneous study branches; on the one hand, the interventions with Multicomponent Training; on the other hand, the interventions with Cardiovascular Training; and, finally, a control group. The sample will be composed of 75 adult hypertensive subjects, including men and women, divided into groups of 25 people, two intervention groups and one control group. The inclusion criteria will be adult subjects, aged 40-65 years, with controlled arterial hypertension and sedentary. Exclusion criteria will be pregnant women and hypertensive patients with serious diseases that prevent the safe practice of physical exercise. The intervention will last 12 weeks and training will be 2 days per week, 60 minutes per session. The variables of the pre-post intervention study will be haemodynamic parameters; body composition, abdominal perimeter, general and manual strength, cardiorespiratory capacity, lipid profile and glucose.

This is a Phase I/II stage to investigate the safety, tolerability, and ocular hypotensive efficacy of TO-O-1001 in healthy volunteers and patients with Open-Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension. The proposed trial consists of 3 study parts to be conducted at Nucleus Network Melbourne. This study will enroll up to 34 evaluable healthy volunteers in part 1(SAD) and part 2(MD) and 16 evaluable patients with Open-Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension in part 3(MD). Note- As of 14Mar2023, enrolment has been completed for Part 1 and Part 2 and recruitment is pending now for Part 3.

This is a clinical study to improve the regularity of medication intake for high blood pressure. Adult women and men who are over 50 years old, who have received a prescription drug for high blood pressure from MediService, and who have to take at least 4 tablets per day (of which at least 1 dose of medication per day is for high blood pressure) can participate in this study. The investigators intend to examine whether Collabree, a mobile phone application, is effective in supporting patients with hypertension to more successfully following their therapy plan in order to improve the regularity of medication intake. The study includes a 90-day intervention phase and a 90-day follow-up. The study does not require any therapy adjustments and no visits to a study center are necessary. The participants conduct the study independently at home. Participants will also fill out questionnaires. Participants are randomly assigned to one of 3 groups in a ratio of 1: 1: 1. Two of these groups will receive the Collabree mobile phone application.

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that renal denervation decreases blood pressure and is safe when studied in the presence of up to three standard antihypertensive medications.

RADIANCE-HTN is a randomized, double-blind, sham controlled, 2-cohort study (TRIO and SOLO) designed to demonstrate efficacy and document the safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System in two distinct populations of hypertensive subjects.

The aim of the trial is to study the long-term safety of macitentan and to provide continued treatment with macitentan to patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) who were previously treated with macitentan in clinical studies.

High blood pressure is common and its presence increases the risk of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity (most notably stroke, myocardial infarction, and congestive heart failure). Given blood pressure is normally higher during the day than it is overnight, blood pressure lowering medications are traditionally taken in the morning. However a randomized trial of 2156 Spanish hypertension patients published in 2010 ("MAPEC"), suggests a large (61%) reduction in mortality and cardiovascular morbidity if such medications are instead taken at bedtime. This degree of benefit far exceeds other established methods of cardiovascular risk reduction - and such a surprisingly large effect requires independent confirmation for practice to change. BedMed is a pragmatic randomized controlled trial facilitated by over 400 Canadian family physician members of the Pragmatic Trials Collaborative. During the conduct of this trial consenting hypertensive primary care patients, already established on one or more antihypertensive medications, will be randomized to either morning or bedtime antihypertensive use. Patient oriented trial outcomes evaluating both potential benefits and harms will be drawn largely from administrative health data that is routinely collected on all residents of Canada's publicly funded health care system. This trial is being conducted in 5 Canadian provinces and will continue to collect data until late 2023, at which point 254 primary outcome events are anticipated.

PH-HFpEF patients will receive weekly open-label doses of levosimendan and be periodically evaluated for safety and effectiveness in extended use.

Combination therapy in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been the subject of active investigation for more than a decade, with the benefit of targeting different pathways known to be involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. Adherence to prescribed therapy has an impact on clinical outcomes. Reducing the pill/tablet count and frequency has a major impact on patients' adherence to therapies and therefore the observed clinical outcomes. One way to simplify treatment is to use fixed-dose combination (FDC) products that combine multiple treatments targeting different pathways into a single tablet. This study aims to demonstrate that the FDC of macitentan and tadalafil is more effective than therapy with 10 mg of macitentan alone or 40 mg of tadalafil alone. This phase 3 study will evaluate the efficacy and safety at 16 weeks of an FDC (macitentan 10 mg and tadalafil 40 mg) against these two PAH-approved therapies given as monotherapy to further confirm the added value of the FDC.

This is a Phase 1b safety and tolerability single-sequence study in which PAH subjects on a stable regimen of Tyvaso will switch to a corresponding dose of TreT.
