Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

The purpose of this study is to investigate effect of candesartan based therapy on percent change of B type natriuretic peptides(BNP) level in the subjects with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy.

This study is being conducted to see if PRX-08066 can lower pulmonary artery pressures in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of continuous simvastatin administration on the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG), as a surrogate marker of prognosis, and its safety in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension.

This study will evaluate the long-term gastrointestinal (GI) safety and efficacy of aliskiren (300 mg) compared to ramipril (10mg) in patients ≥ 50 years with essential hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to establish the safety of clevidipine in the treatment of perioperative hypertension. Approximately 250-500 patients with perioperative hypertension undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) or minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgery and/or valve replacement/repair procedures were anticipated to be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups: clevidipine or sodium nitroprusside.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Iloprost in subjects that have Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension who are concurrently taking bosentan (Tracleer TM).

To compare intraocular pressure lowering effectiveness of a combination drug vs. two individual drugs dosed alone.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ALT-711 in the treatment of isolated systolic hypertension in a formal dose-ranging study in patients without left ventricular hypertrophy. Eligible patients will be randomized to double-blind treatment once daily for 6 months with oral ALT-711 (35, 70, 140, or 210 mg) or placebo.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ALT-711 in the treatment of isolated systolic hypertension in a formal study in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy. Eligible patients will be randomized to double-blind treatment once daily for 6 months with oral ALT-711 (210 mg) or placebo.

In this study it is intended to compare the blood pressure lowering effect of the combination of candesartan cilexetil (candesartan) 32 mg and hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) 25 mg and the combination of candesartan 32 mg and HCT 12.5 mg to that of candesartan 32 mg alone in patients whose blood pressure is not well controlled on candesartan 32 mg monotherapy. The Primary Objectives are to compare sitting BP lowering effect of candesartan/HCT 32/25 mg and candesartan/HCT 32/12.5 mg with that of candesartan 32 mg, respectively.
