What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) From Baseline to Week 8

    Mean change in the trough SBP

    Measured: Baseline to Week 8

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Change in Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) From Baseline to Week 8

    Mean change in the trough DBP

    Measured: Baseline to Week 8

  2. Combined Mean Change in SBP From Baseline to Week 6 and Week 8 (Mean by Patient)

    Arithmetic mean of Week 6 \& Week 8 by patient for "Change from baseline in SBP at Week 6" and "Change from baseline in SBP at Week 8"

    Measured: Baseline to Week 6 and Week 8

  3. Combined Mean Change in DBP From Baseline to Week 6 and Week 8 (Mean by Patient)

    Arithmetic mean of Week 6 \& Week 8 by patient for "Change from baseline in DBP at Week 6" and "Change from baseline in DBP at Week 8"

    Measured: Baseline to Week 6 and Week 8

  4. Number of Subjects Achieving the Target Blood Pressure Reduction Value at Week 8

    Target blood pressure reduction value based on Japan Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension 2004: SBP below 130 mmHg and DBP below 85 mmHg for <=64 years old; SBP below 140 mmHg and DBP below 90 mmHg for >=65 years old

    Measured: Week 8

  5. Combined Number of Subjects Achieving the Target Blood Pressure Reduction Value at Both Weeks 6 and 8

    Target blood pressure reduction value based on Japan Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension 2004: SBP below 130 mmHg and DBP below 85 mmHg for <=64 years old; SBP below 140 mmHg and DBP below 90 mmHg for >=65 years old

    Measured: Week 6 and Week 8

  6. Number of Subjects Achieving the Target Blood Pressure Reduction Value and Whose SBP Decreased From Baseline by >= 10 mmHg at Week 8

    Target blood pressure reduction value based on Japan Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension 2004: SBP below 130 mmHg and DBP below 85 mmHg for <=64 years old; SBP below 140 mmHg and DBP below 90 mmHg for >=65 years old

    Measured: Week 8

  7. Combined Number of Subjects Achieving the Target Blood Pressure Reduction Value and Whose SBP Decreased From Baseline by >= 10 mmHg at Both Weeks 6 and 8

    Target blood pressure reduction value based on Japan Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension 2004: SBP below 130 mmHg and DBP below 85 mmHg for <=64 years old; SBP below 140 mmHg and DBP below 90 mmHg for >=65 years old

    Measured: Week 6 and Week 8

  8. Trough Plasma Concentrations of Amlodipine -Amlodipine 5 mg

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8

  9. Trough Plasma Concentrations of Amlodipine -Amlodipine 10 mg

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4, and Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Amlodipine in people with Hypertension, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 14 sites 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 4 inclusion and 1 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 14 sites 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 9 Dec 2008). 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?

Change in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) From Baseline to Week 8 (time frame: Baseline to Week 8). 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.
