Active clinical trials for "Essential Hypertension"

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Atorvastatin on the pharmacokinetic properties of Telmisartan/S-amlodipine

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of combined administration of TAK-536CCB (Fix-dose combination of Azilsartan and Amlodipine) and Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) with those of TAK-536CCB in patients with Grade I or II essential hypertension.

The population that will be included in this study, will be regular Turkish hypertensive patients who are expected to consume sodium in high amounts. It is hypothesized that, in that population, amlodipine/valsartan will be effective at the same rate of blood pressure (BP) control rate as expected from literature.

Hypertension is considered a serious public health problem. The imbalance in autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity is one of the main triggers in the development and maintenance of hypertension. The non-pharmacological management of this disease is an important resource, especially in refractory hypertensive patients or in hypertensive crises, where the pharmacological treatment does not present an efficient response. It is known that transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is capable of modifying the autonomic balance, however, the effects of Interferential electrical stimulation (IES) on this system in normotensive and hypertensive volunteers are not yet known. These electrotherapeutic resources may be a non-pharmacological tool supporting the management of hypertension. The objective of this research is to study the effects of different TENS and IC parameters on cardiovascular variables of normotensive volunteers and hypertensive patients.

The main objective will be to evaluate the dose-response of ACT-132577 (aprocitentan) on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in participants with grade 1 or 2 essential hypertension. Secondary objectives will be to evaluate the dose-response of ACT-132577 on: systolic blood pressure (SBP); control and response rate of blood pressure; 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a once daily oral regimen of 4 doses of ACT-132577.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Arotinolol Hydrochloride and Metoprolol succinate on morning blood pressure, heart rate and target organ damage in patients with essential hypertension. To provide evidence for hypertension treatment. A group: Arotinolol Hydrochloride, oral, 5-15mg, bid for 12 weeks. B group: Metoprolol succinate sustained-release tablet, oral, 23.75-71.25mg, qd for 12 weeks.

Blood pressure variation and the risk of essential hypertension have an important genetic component. In most cases susceptibility to essential hypertension is likely determined by the action of more than one gene. The identification of genes causing susceptibility to hypertension is important, since it would give new tools for the diagnosis and enable better etiological classification and specific treatment of the disease. The innovation of this study is to use the response to antihypertensive therapy as an intermediate phenotype. In the study, each subject uses one of four antihypertensive drugs, each as a monotherapy in a rotational fashion, for 28 days in a randomized order. The antihypertensive drugs to be tested include a thiazide diuretic, a beta-adrenergic antagonist, an angiotensin-II receptor antagonist and a calcium channel blocker. The drugs that are selected for the study are "typical" representatives of their groups and long-acting, and the dosages are sufficient but well tolerable.

A multi-center, randomized, double-blind, phase IV clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of OROSARTAN® tablet 5/160mg versus CODIOVAN® tablet 160/12.5mg in patients with essential hypertension uncontrolled with valsartan 160mg monotherapy

Fimasartan (FMS) is an AT1 receptor antagonist indicated for once a day administration, currently approved for the treatment of essential hypertension in Corea and Mexico. As the safety and efficacy of FMS was initially demonstrated in Korea only, it was necessary to address the potential for ethnic factors to have an effect on the drug´s efficacy and safety in the Mexican population. To address this need, a cohort of 272 Mexican subjects with grades 1-2 essential hypertension were sequentially treated on a treat to target basis (target: sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure (sDBP) <90 mmHg) with 60 mg FMS once a day (8 weeks), either 120 mg FMS or 60 mg FMS+12.5 mg HCTZ once a day (randomized 4 week treatment period) and 120 mg FMS once a day (during 12 weeks) for a total treatment period of 24 weeks.

Randomized, Double-Blind, Multi-Center, Phase 3 Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Telmisartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Combination in Comparison with Telmisartan/Amlodipine Combination for Essential Hypertension Patients not Controlled by Telmisartan/Amlodipine Combination
