Trial summary

Treatment and control of hypertension is still insufficient. About 50% of the patients remain uncontrolled. Lack of compliance with discontinuation of drug treatment is an important reason for not achieving blood pressure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Treatment of Essential Hypertension With Vasodip-Combo 20. Efficacy and Safety Evaluation With 24 h Ambulatory Blood Pressure Measurements

Treatment and control of hypertension is still insufficient. About 50% of the patients remain uncontrolled. Lack of compliance with discontinuation of drug treatment is an important reason for not achieving blood pressure. Several studies have shown that use of fixed combinations improve compliance significantly, by reducing the number of pill's intake.

This study will assess the antihypertensive efficacy of Vasodip-Combo 20® [enalapril 20 mg + lercanidipine 10 mg] as a fixed combination drug in uncontrolled antihypertensive patients.

Read the detailed description

This is a single centre observational uncontrolled prospective study, Hypertensive patients that are either treatment naïve or uncontrolled on current therapy [one or two drugs] and meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be assigned to Vasodip-Combo 20 as unique drug treatment. The treatment will then be continued for additional 4 weeks. Office blood pressure will be performed by the physician at each visit. 24 h. ambulatory blood pressure measurements [ABPM] and blood samples for electrolytes, creatinine and urea will be taken at base line visit and at at week 4.

Efficacy will be defined in terms of therapeutic goals expressed as target blood pressures according to World Health Organization and European society of Hypertension [ for office blood pressure and ambulatory blood pressure measurements] criteria:

Office Blood Pressure: Diastolic blood pressure ≤ 90 mmHg and Systolic blood pressure ≤ 140 mmHg for non-diabetics or Diastolic Blood Pressure ≤ 80 mmHg and Systolic Blood Pressure ≤ 130 mmHg for diabetics, respectively.

24 h Ambulatory Blood Pressure Measurements: 224 Hour: Diastolic Blood Pressure≤ 80 mmHg and Systolic Blood Pressure ≤ 130 mmHg, Awake time: Diastolic Blood Pressure ≤ 85 mmHg,Systolic Blood Pressure ≤ 135 mmHg Asleep Time: Diastolic Blood Pressure ≤70 mmHg, Systolic Blood Pressure ≤ 70 mmHg.

Effectiveness and Safety will also be evaluated taking into consideration patient compliance

Safety assessments:

Safety will be assessed by means of (S)Adverse effects reporting.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lercanidipine/enalapril fixed combination in people with Hypertension, run by Meir Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jun 2016. 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 Israel. 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 was stopped early (reason given: sponsor decision). 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?

Blood Pressure control (time frame: Four weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01211314, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 28 Jun 2016.
