About this study

Official title: A 24-week Open-label Clinical Trial to Assess Tolerability and Antihypertensive Effect and in Hemodynamic Parameters and Arterial Stiffness of Fimasartan 60 mg Plus Amlodipine Besylate 5 mg Given Once a Day in Patients With Hypertension in Stadiums 2/3

24-week open clinical trial to assess tolerability and effect on pressure, hemodynamic parameters and arterial rigidity of the combined treatment based on Fimasartan 60 mg and amlodipine besylate 5 mg given once daily in patients with arterial hypertension in stages 2-3

Read the detailed description

A prospective, open clinical trial of a cohort of adult patients of both sexes with recent 2-3 years high blood pressure.

Intervention: Fimasartan 60 mg + amlodipine besylate 5 mg once daily

Purpose and justification of the study:

Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) is a pathology that diminishes the hope and quality of life and is directly associated with the production or aggravation of other pathologies such as atherosclerosis, heart failure, ischemic heart disease and / or chronic kidney disease.

Several studies have shown that central pulse pressure (cPP) and central aortic pressure (CAP) are better predictors of cardiovascular disease, target organ damage and mortality, than the brachial or peripheral pulse pressure (pPP). More attention should be paid to central hemodynamics, since its values are those that directly impact the organs that are commonly damaged as a result of hypertension, brain, kidney and heart. (2) Current therapeutic strategies for SH, although partially effective, have not adequate control of tension figures in hypertensive patients, either due to lack of power, by their adverse effects or by requiring multiple shots that seriously compromise attachment to the treatment. Fimasartan is a medicine that belongs to the therapeutic class of the selective blockers of angiotensin II (AT 1) receptors, family of drugs with less adverse effects than other renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis inhibitors, with potency adequate antihypertensive and additional beneficial effects on renal function, hypertrophy ventricular, atheromatosis and insulin sensitivity. Based on the physico-chemical characteristics of the Fimasartan and the results obtained in phase I-II and III studies in different populations, including the Mexican,favoring the adherence and control of blood pressure, it can be an effective and safe therapeutic option.

What is being measured

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

  1. Reduction of pulse wave velocity

    The administration of combined dose-based treatment of 60 mg of fimasartan plus 5 mg of amlodipine besylate QD administered according to the treatment schedule for 24 weeks reduces VOPcf in Mexican Patients with Essential Arterial Hypertension grades 2 and 3

    Measured: 24 week

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Central Aortic Pressure

    The administration of combined dose-based treatment of 60 mg of fimasartan plus 5 mg of amlodipine besylate QD administered according to the treatment schedule for 24 weeks reduces Central Aortic Pressure in Mexican Patients with Essential Arterial Hypertension grades 2 and 3

    Measured: 24 week

  2. Central Pulse Pressure

    The administration of combined dose-based treatment of 60 mg of fimasartan plus 5 mg of amlodipine besylate QD administered according to the treatment schedule for 24 weeks reduces Central Pulse Pressure in Mexican Patients with Essential Arterial Hypertension grades 2 and 3

    Measured: 24 week

  3. Rising Index

    The administration of combined dose-based treatment of 60 mg of fimasartan plus 5 mg of amlodipine besylate QD administered according to the treatment schedule for 24 weeks reduces Rising Index in Mexican Patients with Essential Arterial Hypertension grades 2 and 3

    Measured: 24 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Fimasartan plus amlodipine besylate in people with Arterial Hypertension, run by Centro Universitario de Ciencias de la Salud, Mexico.

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 15 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 26 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Ernesto G Cardona -Muñoz, PhD (+52 3336173499, cameg1@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reduction of pulse wave velocity (time frame: 24 week). 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 26 Sep 2017.
