What is being measured

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

  1. Change in office systolic & diastolic blood pressure from baseline to 6 months

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Change in insulin sensitivity

    HOMA-IR index at baseline, 3-month and 12-month

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Change in glucose metabolism

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Renal denervation therapy in people with Hypertension, Resistant and Diabetes Mellitus, run by Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2022. 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 Hong Kong. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Slow recruitment and change in clinical evidence). 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 office systolic & diastolic blood pressure from baseline to 6 months (time frame: 6 months). 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 18 Nov 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
