Active clinical trials for "Essential Hypertension"

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

Both Olmesartan (OLM)/Amlodipine (AML) combination and Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) have proven to be efficacious and safe in lowering blood pressure, but may not always be sufficient. This study is to test efficacy and safety of the combination of OLM/AML and HCTZ in hypertensive patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with OLM/AML alone. The following treatments will be included in the trial: OLM 40mg/AML 10mg; OLM 40mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 12.5 mg; OLM 40 mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 25 mg. The trial has four periods. The treatments that will be used are as follows: Period 1 - OLM 40mg/AML 10mg; Period 2 - OLM 40mg/AML 10mg or OLM 40mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 12.5 mg or OLM 40 mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 25 mg; Period 3 - OLM 40mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 12.5 mg; Period 4 - Period 3 responders: OLM 40mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 12.5 mg; Period 4 - Period 3 non-responders: OLM 40mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 12.5 mg or OLM 40 mg/AML 10 mg/HCTZ 25 mg

The study will evaluate the blood pressure lowering effects of two different dosages of the combination of olmesartan and hydrochlorothiazide in patients with moderate or severe high blood pressure.

The study will evaluate the blood pressure lowering effects of two different dosages of the combination of olmesartan and hydrochlorothiazide in patients with moderate or severe high blood pressure.

The purpose of this 7- to 13-month study is to determine the efficacy of 8 mg/day oral perindopril to prevent the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with essential hypertension.

This is a multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, time-lagged, parallel-group study in healthy and hypertensive subjects to evaluate safety and tolerability of the vaccine CYT006-AngQb. The trial is double-blind for active vs. placebo within each treatment arm, but open with respect to AngQb dose escalation. In the first arm, 16 healthy normotensive volunteers are treated with a one dose regimen consisting of a single s.c. injection of 100µg of AngQb or placebo. Upon satisfying safety and tolerability profile, as judged by the independent safety monitoring board, arm two is enrolled. In arm two 36 patients with mild to moderate hypertension receive three s.c. injections of 100µg CYT006-AngQb (24 patients) or placebo (12 patients). The second and third injections are given 4 and 12 weeks after the first injection, respectively. Upon satisfying safety and tolerability profile, as judged by the independent safety monitoring board, arm three is enrolled. In arm three 36 patients with mild to moderate hypertension receive three s.c. injections of 300µg CYT006-AngQb (24 patients) or placebo (12 patients). The second and third injections are given 4 and 12 weeks after the first injection, respectively. The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate safety / tolerability of 3 dose regimens of CYT006-AngQb in healthy volunteers and patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension. Secondary objectives include the assessment of pharmacodynamic effects and their dose-response (immunogenicity and biomarkers of the renin-angiotensin system), and the exploration of clinical efficacy (effects on systolic and diastolic blood pressure)

The primary objective of this study was to assess the anti-hypertensive effect of OM/HCTZ 40/12.5 mg combination therapy compared to OM 40 mg monotherapy in lowering sitting diastolic BP in hypertensive patients after 8 weeks of double-blind treatment. The study consisted of two sequential phases of 8 weeks duration each: During the first phase, OM 40 mg monotherapy was compared with OM/HCTZ 40/12.5 mg in order to evaluate the additional benefit of OM/HCTZ 40/12.5 mg in the treatment of essential moderate to severe hypertension. During the second phase, patients whose BP proved to be insufficiently controlled by the OM 40 mg monotherapy were to start OM/HCTZ 40/12.5 mg combination therapy while patients whose BP proved to be insufficiently controlled by the OM/HCTZ 40/12.5 mg combination were to be up-titrated to the OM/HCTZ 40/25 mg combination to evaluate the additional benefit of the up-titrated combination. The study was be conducted by qualified and experienced personnel with adherence to GCP, current guidelines on the design of studies in hypertension, the applicable regulatory requirements and the ethical principles based on the Declaration of Helsinki.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of once daily administration of the combination of Valsartan and Amlodipine 80/5 mg for 52 weeks in patients with essential hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to determine the long term safety and tolerability of azilsartan medoxomil, once daily (QD), in participants with Essential Hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of azilsartan medoxomil combined with chlorthalidone, once daily (QD), in participants with moderate to severe essential hypertension.
