About this study

Official title: Renal Denervation for Complicated Hypertension (RDNP-2012-03)

This is an observational proof of concept study investigating the safety and effectiveness of renal denervation to lower blood pressure in people whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled due to:

  • intolerance to antihypertensive medication
  • inability to take antihypertensive medication due to planned pregnancy
  • renal artery stenosis
  • chronic kidney disease
  • non-compliance to antihypertensive medication

A total of 125 participants, 25 from each of the groups mentioned above will be recruited to the study.

The duration of this study is 36 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in average office blood pressure

    Change in systolic and diastolic average office blood pressure from baseline to 6 months post procedure

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Blood pressure control

    Percentage of patients who achieved BP target at 6 months post procedure

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  2. Number of drugs required to reach target blood pressure

    Number of drugs required to reach target blood pressure

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  3. Time to achieve blood pressure target

    Time to achieve blood pressure target

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  4. Change in sympathetic nerve activity

    Change in muscle sympathetic nerve activity, renal and whole body Noradrenaline (NA) spillover

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  5. Change in left ventricular structure and function

    Change in left Ventricular mass index, Ejection Fraction, diastolic filling

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  6. Change in Quality of life

    Change in Quality of life as assessed by relevant questionnaires

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  7. Change in serum and urine Biochemistry

    Plasma renin activity, aldosterone, estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate(eGFR), Urinary Albumin Creatinine Ratio (UACR), inflammatory markers, 24hour urine creatinine clearance, sodium, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, c peptide, Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) index, lipid profile.

    Measured: baseline to 6 months post procedure

  8. Change in markers of arterial stiffness

    Change in markers of arterial stiffness including Augmentation Index (AI) and Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV)

    Measured: baseline to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Renal Denervation in people with Hypertension, run by Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute at 1 site in Australia.

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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2018. 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 Australia. 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: No new participants enrolled. Protocol superseded.). 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?

Change in average office blood pressure (time frame: baseline to 6 months post procedure). 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 5 Nov 2018.
