  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
  • Patients who have been treated by the single use of AII antagonist at usual for at least 8 weeks or patients who have been treated by the combined use of AII antagonist at usual doses and calcium channel blocker or a antihypertensive drug other than ACE inhibitors for at least 8 weeks.
  • Patients who show a systolic blood pressure (blood pressure) > 135 mm Hg or a diastolic blood pressure > 85 mm Hg, which is measured (in a sitting position) on an outpatient basis at the time of start of the observation period, and show the mean (blood pressure level measured at home after getting up before the start of study) of systolic blood pressure > 130 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure > 80 mm Hg measured at home after getting up for last 5 days during the last 2-week observation period.
  • Patients whose consent is obtained at age 20 years or over.
  • Patients whose consent is obtained from themselves in written form. With regard to 2) and 3), however, the case, in which the mean of the systolic blood pressure levels measured at home after getting up for last 5 days during the first 1-week observation period is > 180 mm Hg or the mean diastolic blood pressure level is > 110 mm Hg, is included in the present study.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with secondary hypertension.
  • Patients who show a systolic blood pressure > 180 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure > 110 mm Hg on the measurement (in a sitting position) on an outpatient basis at the time of start of the observation period.
  • Patients with severe hepatic dysfunction.
  • Patients with severe renal dysfunction.
  • Patients with a past history of hypersensitiveness to study drugs.
  • Pregnant, lactating, and probably pregnant patients, and patients who want to become pregnant during the study period.
  • Patients who have participated in the trial within 3 months before the start of the observation period or who attend the trial simultaneously with the present study.
  • Other patients judged as being inappropriate for the subjects of the study by investigators.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled Study on Calcium Channel Blocker Versus Angiotensin II Antagonists in the Hypertensive Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Under the Inadequately Controlled Blood Pressure With Angiotension II Antagonists

The antihypertensive effect of the increased dose of angiotensin II receptor blocker (AII antagonist) is compared with that of the additional combined use of amlodipine in hypertensive patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, who have been treated with AII antagonist, the antihypertensive effect of which has been inadequate.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Angiotensin II receptor antagonists, Calcium channel blockerDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in blood pressure level at home after getting up.

  2. The rate of the blood pressure levels at home after getting up, which effected the target levels (systolic blood pressure < 125 mm Hg, diastolic blood pressure < 80 mm Hg).

  3. Adverse events, adverse drug reactions

  4. Clinical laboratory data

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Changes in blood pressure levels measured on an outpatient basis.

  2. The rate of the blood pressure levels measured on an outpatient basis, which effected the standard levels (systolic blood pressure level <130 mm Hg, diastolic blood pressure level < 80 mm Hg).

  3. Changes in blood pressure levels measured at home before going to bed· Changes in IMT of the cervical artery

  4. Changes in PWV· Changes in echocardiographic findings

  5. Changes in urinary albumin level

  6. Changes in BNP· Changes in hs-CRP· Medical cost-effectiveness

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Angiotensin II receptor antagonists, Calcium channel blocker in people with Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Advanced-J at 1 site in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jul 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in blood pressure level at home after getting up.. The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jul 2006.
