About this study

Official title: Manidipine Versus Amlodipine in Patients With Hypertension: Effects on Peripheral Edema Evaluated by Bioimpedance Analysis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a third-generation Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB), manidipine, compared with second-generation Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB), amlodipine, on the development of peripheral edema using Direct Segmental Multi-Frequency Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (DSM-BIA) method in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension. Investigator expects this study could show more objective evidence of better safety of manidipine compared with amlodipine for peripheral edema.

Read the detailed description

Dihydropyridine Calcium Channel Blockers (CCBs) are one of the most commonly used potent antihypertensive agents. Their vasodilatory effects are associated with Adverse Effects (AEs) such as peripheral edema, headache and flushing.

The incidence of peripheral edema with Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB) is 6% in a recent systematic review and is clearly dose-dependent and more common in women, in obese and in elderly hypertensives. Peripheral edema could be a cause for poor persistence with therapy or antihypertensive treatment withdrawal and has a deleterious impact on health-related quality of life.

A recent meta-analysis of head-to-head trials to compare the efficacy and safety profile of manidipine and amlodipine showed significantly better safety of manidipine: the Relative Risk (RR) for adverse event was 0.69 (0.56-0.85), and particularly for ankle edema Relative Risk (RR) was 0.35 (0.22-0.54).

Although peripheral edema is an important issue in Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB) treatment, techniques (e.g, ankle-foot volume using a water displacement measurement, plethysmography, and pretibial subcutaneous tissue pressure) for the objective measurement are not generally available in a clinical setting. Most clinical studies relied on self-report of peripheral edema that is not a reliable objective method.

Recently, Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) has become increasingly popular for estimating body composition, including Extracellular Water (ECW) and Intracellular Water (ICW), fat mass and fat-free mass. Mechanistically, the Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB)-related peripheral edema is likely due to distal arteriolar dilatation with capillary leak to tissue spaces. Because BIA method can measure the edema as the ratio of Extracellular Water (ECW) to Total Body Water (TBW), it may reflect the Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB)-related edema. Moreover, the Direct Segmental Multi-frequency Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (DSM-BIA) has been validated to assess segmental body (i.e., trunk, arms and legs) composition in addition to total body composition and can provide segmental edema score as well as total edema score. This new, previously not reported method is expected to provide more objective and precise data for peripheral edema.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Manidipine 20mgDrug

    Also called Madipine Tab(Manidipine Hydrochloride) 20mg (CJ)

    After a 1~2-week run-in period, patents will be randomized to receive manidipine (20 mg/day; n=50) for a 8-week open-labeled phase. Study drugs will be administered orally and once daily between 8:00am and 10:00am.

    BP, heart rate, adverse events and concomitant therapy are assessed and a physical examination is performed at each visit. A 12-lead standard ECG is obtained and hematology, clinical biochemistry and urine analysis investigations performed at the screening visit. A Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) is undertaken at the screening visit and at the end of the 8-week treatment course. Patients have to attend the clinic visit every 4 weeks during the treatment period.

  • Amlodipine 10mgDrug

    Also called Amlodipine Pfizer 10mg (Pfizer)

    After a 1~2-week run-in period, patents will be randomized to receive amlodipine (10 mg/day; n=50) for a 8-week open-labeled phase. Study drugs will be administered orally and once daily between 8:00am and 10:00am.

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in South Korea. 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: Difficulty in enrolling subjects). 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 leg edema score (Extracellular Water(ECW) to Total Body Water(TBW)) (time frame: Up to 8 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 NCT03106597, which also lists 10 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 4 Sep 2020.
