Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

To evaluate the ocular hypotensive efficacy and ocular and systemic safety of AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution, 0.02% compared to the active comparator Timolol maleate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5%

Study to compare the natriuretic effect of telmisartan to placebo in mild-to-moderate hypertensive patients on a controlled sodium diet as well as to explore the effects of telmisartan on norepinephrine, plasma renin activity (PRA), plasma aldosterone, urine potassium, creatinin, chloride, bicarbonate and uric acid excretion. Additionally it was assessed whether the natriuretic effect disappears after treatment when telmisartan is stopped. The effects of telmisartan on seated clinic blood pressure and the relationship between urine sodium loss and decrease in ambulatory blood pressure after the first dose were assessed descriptively. Assessment of safety was also considered.

The general aim and clinical objective of this trial is to determine the effect of telmisartan 80 mg compared to losartan 50 mg + HCTZ (Hydrochlorothiazide) 12.5 mg on reduction of blood pressure (BP) in patients with mild to moderate hypertension as assessed by 24 hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) and trough sitting BP cuff measurements at the end of the treatment.

The efficacy and safety of Telmisartan capsule in patients with essential hypertension were evaluated in comparison with Enalapril Maleate in the double blind trial.

This trial is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of empagliflozin compared with placebo in hypertensive black/African Americans with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Since hyperglycaemia and hypertension are key risk factors for both micro- and macrovascular complications, assessment of both glucose and BP lowering effects of empagliflozin in hypertensive African American patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus could provide clinically highly relevant, new information for the use of empagliflozin. Essential hypertension is four times more common in African Americans than in Caucasians. One of the risk factors for hypertension is sodium sensitivity and approximately one third of the essential hypertensive population is responsive to sodium intake. There is a higher association of hypertension with sodium sensitivity in African American patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The treatment duration of this trial (24 weeks) will enable assessment of the clinically relevant endpoint of a decrease in HbA1c, a well accepted measurement of chronic glycaemic control and the key secondary endpoints of decreases in systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) at 12 and 24 weeks.

This open label 4 month study will evaluate efficacy (blood pressure lowering effects) and safety of lisinopril in children 1-18y whose parents grant permission to participate. This dose titration study is being conducted to support the statement that personalized titration of lisinopril (based on blood pressure and renin-aldosterone ratio) can increase patient response.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and pharmacokinetics of CKD-330 (fixed-dose combination of Candesartan 8 mg and Amlodipine 5 mg) with coadministration of the two separate drugs in healthy male volunteers.

It´s a clinical research of the effects in portal hypertension caused by simvastatin. We are going to use the hepatic venous pressure gradient(HVPG) measurement and the azygos flow at echoendoscopy to evaluate the benefits of the drug. Preliminary studies demonstrated that simvastatin can lower portal pressure.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of travelling to moderate altitude and of nocturnal oxygen therapy during a stay at moderate altitude on exercise performance of patients with pulmonary hypertension or with interstitial lung disease.

The purpose of this study is to to assess the safety and tolerability of BIA 5 1058 after single and multiple oral doses
