About this study
Official title: A 6-Week, Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Double-Dummy Phase IV Clinical Trial Designed to Evaluate the Efficacy of an Aggressive Multi-Risk Factor Management Strategy With Caduet (A3841045) Versus a Guideline-Based Approach in Achieving Blood Pressure and Lipid Goals in Hypertensive Subjects With Additional Risk Factors.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether an aggressive multi-risk factor management strategy (Caduet plus therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLC) regimen) will result in greater percentage of patients achieving blood pressure and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals compared with a Joint National Committee 7/ National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (JNC 7/NCEP ATP III) guideline-based approach (Norvasc plus TLC regimen) after 6 weeks of treatment in primary prevention subjects with hypertension and additional risk factors, including dyslipidemia.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Amlodipine besylate and Amlodipine besylate/atorvastatin calcium single pill combination in people with Dyslipidemia and Hypertension, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 51 sites in United States.
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 1 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 51 sites in United States. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Nov 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Subjects With Blood Pressure (BP) <140/90 Millimeters of Mercury (mmHg) and Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) <100 Milligrams Per Deciliter(mg/dL) at Week 6 (time frame: Week 6). The study lists 2 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 11 Feb 2021.
