Active clinical trials for "Essential Hypertension"

To assess the efficacy of individually optimized doses of olmesartan medoxomil compared to losartan in elderly and very elderly patients with essential hypertension. The study hypothesis is non-inferiority of olmesartan medoxomil compared to losartan in lowering mean sitting diastolic blood pressure after 12 weeks of treatment compared to baseline. The study duration is up to 60 weeks, including a 52-week treatment period. After 12 weeks of treatment hydrochlorothiazide may be added to control blood pressure. Efficacy and safety measurements are carried out at up to 18 visits during the trial.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antihypertensive efficacy and safety of Fimasartan (BR-A-657•K) during 24 hours by dose in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate of efficacy and safety of amlodipine plus losartan and losartan alone in patients with essential hypertension inadequately controlled on losartan monotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to compare the antihypertensive effect of azilsartan medoxomil plus chlorthalidone, once daily (QD), to olmesartan medoxomil plus hydrochlorothiazide in participants with moderate to severe hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy (blood pressure lowering effect) and safety of aliskiren given to hypertensive patients after a missed dose.

This study is designed to provide long-term safety and efficacy data for the combination doses of VAH (VAL/ HCTZ) 40/6.25mg and 80/12.5mg in essential hypertensive patients. The 350 patients (approximately) who have successfully finished the core trial CVAH631B1303 and signed consent for the extension will be enrolled into this study.

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dosage of the clinical trial which is evaluating the antihypertensive efficacy and the safety of OJP-2028 tablets in patients with the uncomplicated essential hypertension.

This study was a dose-ranging efficiacy study in patients with essential hypertension to assess the blood pressure lowering effect, and safety of LCZ696 compared to valsartan and placebo. The study will also evaluate the efficacy and safety of AHU377 as compared to placebo.

The study medication CYT006-AngQb is a vaccine, consisting of angiotensin II (Ang II), the naturally occurring octapeptide coupled onto the surface of virus-like particles (VLP). This form of presenting Ang II to the immune system induces a B-cell mediated immune response characterized by the generation of specific antibodies (IgG and IgM) against Ang II. The CYT006-AngQb vaccine is administered by subcutaneous (s.c.) injection. Immunization against angiotensin II may offer a valuable alternative to conventional drugs for the treatment of hypertension.

To assess the effect of naproxcinod vs. naproxen and ibuprofen on arterial blood pressure in patients with osteoarthritis and controlled essential hypertension
