About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Multi-center, Phase Ⅳ Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Antihypertensive Efficacy and Safety Between Amlodipine Besylate/Candesartan Cilexetil Combination Tablets and Co-administration of Amlodipine Besylate and Candesartan Cilexetil in Patients With Essential Hypertension

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of amlodipine besylate and candesartan cilexetil administered in a fixed-dose combination tablet versus co-administered as their separate formulations in patients with essential hypertension who have shown inadequate response on monotherapy of amlodipine or candesartan cilexetil or who are with blood pressure adequately controlled by co-administration of amlodipine besylate and candesartan cilexetil single agents

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in sitting Systolic Blood Pressure(siSBP) from baseline after 8 weeks of treatment

    For change in siSBP from baseline after 8 weeks of treatment, the mean, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum will be presented by treatment arm.

    The LS mean change in siSBP from baseline after 8 weeks of treatment adjusted for baseline siSBP and its standard error will be presented by treatment arm. Non-inferiority test will be conducted using ANCOVA including change in siSBP from baseline after 8 weeks of treatment as response variable and baseline siSBP and treatment arm as independent variables. Amlodipine besylate/candesartan cilexetil combination tablet will be considered non-inferior to co-administration of amlodipine besylate and candesartan cilexetil if the lower bound of 2-sided 95% CI for the LS mean of difference in siSBP change between the treatment arms is greater than -5.

    Measured: Week 8

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in siSBP from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment

    For change in siSBP from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment, the mean, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum will be presented by treatment arm.

    The LS mean change in siSBP from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment adjusted for baseline siSBP and its standard error will be presented by treatment arm. Non-inferiority test will be conducted using ANCOVA including change in siSBP from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment as response variable and baseline siSBP and treatment arm as independent variables. Amlodipine besylate/candesartan cilexetil combination tablet will be considered non-inferior to co-administration of amlodipine besylate and candesartan cilexetil if the lower bound of 2-sided 95% CI for the LS mean of difference in siSBP change between the treatment arms is greater than -5.

    Measured: Week 4

  2. Change in siDBP from baseline after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment

    For change in siDBP from baseline after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, the mean, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum will be presented by treatment arm.

    The LS mean change in siSBP from baseline after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment adjusted for baseline siDBP and its standard error will be presented by treatment arm. Non-inferiority test will be conducted using ANCOVA including change in siDBP from baseline after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment as response variable and baseline siDBP and treatment arm as independent variables. Amlodipine besylate/candesartan cilexetil combination tablet will be considered non-inferior to co-administration of amlodipine besylate and candesartan cilexetil if the lower bound of 2-sided 95% CI for the LS mean of difference in siSBP change between the treatment arms is greater than -5.

    Measured: Week 4 and Week 8

  3. Proportion of subjects with siDBP < 90 mmHg and siSBP <140 mmHg after 8 weeks of treatment

    The frequency and percentage of subjects with siDBP < 90 mmHg and the frequency and percentage of subjects with siSBP < 140 mmHg after 8 weeks of treatment will be presented by treatment arm. Additionally, the frequency and percentage of subjects with both siDBP < 90 mmHg and siSBP <140 mmHg after 8 weeks of treatment will be presented by treatment arm. The difference in proportion between treatment arms will be tested using the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test.

    Measured: Week8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Group I and Group II in people with Hypertension, run by HK inno.N Corporation at 1 site in South Korea.

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 6 inclusion and 27 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 16 Oct 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact SangJun Youn, Ph.D. (82-8-6477-0240, sangjun.youn@cj.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in sitting Systolic Blood Pressure(siSBP) from baseline after 8 weeks of treatment (time frame: Week 8). 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 16 Oct 2018.
