Trial summary

Recent studies have shown that obese people are more prone to high blood pressure. With the co-existence of obesity, hypertension and diabetes, patients were more susceptible to hyperlipidemia, coronary and cerebral atherosclerosis and peripheral vascular disease. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Hypertension With Obesity Trial: Diabetes Mellitus Branch

Recent studies have shown that obese people are more prone to high blood pressure. With the co-existence of obesity, hypertension and diabetes, patients were more susceptible to hyperlipidemia, coronary and cerebral atherosclerosis and peripheral vascular disease. Abdominal obesity has often accompanied by substantial accumulation of visceral fat, which increased secretion of many inflammatory mediators, cytokines and adipocytokines and played an important role in cardiovascular and metabolic disease. Some reports had shown that angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB) may improve metabolic profiles in patients with diabetes or metabolic syndrome, in addition to its hypotensive effect. It has been reported that some ARB, such as telmisartan and candesartan, can prevent weight gain and high-fat-induced obesity in experimental animals. However, whether telmisartan intervention on improvement of fat deposition and other related metabolic profiles is better than a CCB drugs (amlodipine) in those obese hypertensive patients with diabetes, was still unknown.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Temisartan and Amlodipine in people with Hypertension and Obesity, run by Third Military Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 10 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 17 Dec 2013. 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 China. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Blood Pressure (time frame: Baseline, 24 weeks(End of trial)). 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 17 Dec 2013.
