About this study

Official title: Effect of the Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients With Resistant Hypertension

Resistant hypertension is defined as uncontrolled blood pressure (BP ≥ 140/90mmHg) despite the current use of three or more antihypertensive drugs at full doses, including a diuretic. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is at high risk for cardiovascular morbidity and is highly prevalent in patients with resistant hypertension.

The prospective observational POP-ART study will assess the efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on BP in patients with resistant hypertension and collect data from usual care.

Read the detailed description

Obstructive Sleep Apnea is highly prevalent in patients with resistant hypertension and several studies have assessed the effect of CPAP treatment on BP.

But only few studies have raised data about the effect of CPAP treatment on BP in patients with resistant hypertension.

Hypertension is moreover associated with increased arterial stiffness, but no data are available in patients with resistant hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that OSA has a major impact in resistant hypertension, whose effects on BP and arterial stiffness can partially be reversible with CPAP treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean variation in BP at 6 months, assessed by 24h ambulatory BP monitoring

    Measured: 6 months from baseline assessment

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. OSA prevalence in patients with resistant hypertension

    Measured: 6 months

  2. BP variability assessed by home self BP measurments

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Arterial stiffness assessed by pulse wave velocity and QKD interval

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Antihypertensive treatment consumption

    Measured: 6 months

  5. CPAP treatment observance

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension, Resistant to Conventional Therapy and Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 4 sites in France.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2016. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Gilles Barone-Rochette, MD, PhD ((+33) 4 76 76 51 72, gbarone@chu-grenoble.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean variation in BP at 6 months, assessed by 24h ambulatory BP monitoring (time frame: 6 months from baseline assessment). 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 7 Mar 2016.
