About this study

Official title: Effect of Fixed Triple Combination With Losartan-Amlodipin-HCTZ vs. Free Triple Combination on Blood Pressure Control

Evaluation of the effect of FIXED triple anti-hypertensive therapy with losartan-amlodipin-HCTZ vs any free triple combination therapy chosen by the treating physician for patients with uncontrolled hypertension

Read the detailed description

Patients who have uncontrolled hypertension and who require triple therapy will be randomized to receive:

  1. Fixed combination containing 3 anti-hypertensive drugs: losartan 100 mg + amlodipin 5 mg + hydrocholorothiazide 12.5 mg one tab/day
  2. Or any other therapy decided by the treating physician containing three anti-hypertensive agents but supplied as "free" therapy, meaning supplied as 2 or 3 separate tablets Patients will have a baseline ambulatory blood pressure recording. The same recording will be repeated at 2 months of therapy.

We expect fixed triple combination to be more effective because the drugs used work synergistically together and the compliance will be higher

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Losartan and amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide in people with Hypertension, run by Hotel Dieu de France Hospital at 1 site in Lebanon.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 5 Jul 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 Lebanon. 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 Rabih R Azar, MD, MPH (+9611615300 ext. 9418, razar@usj.edu.lb), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

average 24 hour blood pressure measured by ambulatory recording (time frame: measured after 2 months of therapy). 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 5 Jul 2018.
