Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Provision of informed consent prior to any study specific procedures
  • Male or female patients with chronic, stable hypertension treated for at least 1 month before screening with a calcium channel blocker, a beta blocker, or an ACE inhibitor, either as the only anti-hypertensive medication or concurrently with a diuretic. The patients should have no change in their current anti hypertensive treatment for at least 1 month before dosing
  • Patients in Part 1 should have an SBP of ≤140 mmHg at screening and ≤160 mmHg at Visit 1a and pre-dose on Day 1
  • Patients in Part 2 should have an SBP of ≤160 mmHg at screening Visit 1 and pre dose on Day 1. Systolic blood pressure and DBP should not vary by more than 8 mmHg and 5 mmHg, respectively, in the pre-dose period (screening, Visit 1a, and pre-dose on Day 1)
  • Age 18 to 65 years (inclusive)

Who cannot join

  • Other than having chronic hypertension, the history of any clinically significant medical, neurologic, or psychiatric disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the Investigator and/or the Sponsor, may either put the patient at risk because of participation in the study or influence the results, or the patient's ability to participate in the study. Patients with dyslipidaemia (diet controlled or treated with a statin) and/or metabolic syndrome (diet controlled or treated with metformin) may be entered into the study
  • Any clinically significant illness, medical/surgical procedure or trauma within 4 weeks of the first administration of the investigational product
  • Patients with a pre-treatment SBP (if known) of >180 mmHg or a history of accelerated or malignant hypertension based on grade III (hypertensive haemorrhages and/or cotton wool spots) or grade IV (hypertensive papilloedema) retinopathy at any time
  • History or presence of gastrointestinal (including irritable bowel disease), hepatic, or renal disease (creatinine clearance of ≤50 mL/minute calculated using the Cockcroft Gault equation) or any other condition known to interfere with the ADME of the investigational product.
  • Patients with a history of surgery on the gastrointestinal tract (not including appendectomy or cholecystectomy) should also be excluded
  • Any significant ECG abnormality including QTcF prolongation (>450 ms) or significant arrhythmias, or junctional rhythms

What is being measured

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

  1. Part 1: To measure the effect of TC-5214 on sitting blood pressure in patients with chronic hypertension.

    The following assessments will be measured and reported:

    • A change from baseline in blood pressure and pulse rate.

    Measured: Day 1 through to follow up

  2. Part 2: To measure the effect of TC-5214 combined with treatment with the common classes of anti-hypertensive medication (calcium channel blockers, beta blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors) on sitting blood pressure.

    The following assessments will be measured and reported:

    A change from baseline in blood pressure and pulse rate.

    Measured: Day 1 through to follow up

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To examine the safety and tolerability of TC-5214.

    The following assessments will be measured and reported:

    • The number of particpants with adverse events
    • A change from baseline in blood pressure and pulse rate
    • A change from baseline in laboratory assessments
    • A change from baseline in vital signs
    • A change from baseline in electrocardiogram (ECG)
    • A change from baseline in physical examination

    Measured: Day 1 through to Follow up

  2. The concentration of TC-5214 in plasma will be measured.

    Measured: Day 1 to day 28

A Phase 1 study testing TC-5214 in people with Chronic Hypertension, run by AstraZeneca at 4 sites in 3 countries.

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 6 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 2 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, Germany, United Kingdom. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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's decision to terminate). 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?

Part 1: To measure the effect of TC-5214 on sitting blood pressure in patients with chronic hypertension. (time frame: Day 1 through to follow up). 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 2 Oct 2012.
