About this study

Official title: Effects and Safety of Sacubitril/Valsartan Versus Valsartan on Refractory Hypertension: The EOSORH Trial

Resistant hypertension (RH) accounted for a considerable proportion of patients with hypertension. It has been revealed to impose certain adverse effects on the prognosis of patients with cardiovascular diseases. The antihypertensive effect of sacubitril/valsartan being fully confirmed in previous studies, there were no related randomized controlled trials (RCT) about this potency among Chinese patients with RH. The investigators designed this study to evaluated effects and safety of sacubitril/valsartan versus valsartan on Chinese patients with RH.

Read the detailed description

Background Resistant hypertension (RH) accounted for a considerable proportion of patients with hypertension. It has been revealed to impose certain adverse effects on the prognosis of patients with cardiovascular diseases. The antihypertensive effect of sacubitril/valsartan being fully confirmed in previous studies, there were no related randomized controlled trials (RCT) about this potency among Chinese patients with RH.

Purpose Describing the design of the Effects of Sacubitril/valsartan Versus Valsartan on Refractory Hypertension (EOSORH) trial.

Methods and analysis This is a monocentric, randomized, parallel-group, controlled trial which will investigate the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in the treatment of Chinese patients with RH. A total of 138 patients will be enrolled who are diagnosed with RH according to the Guidelines for Prevention and Treatment of Hypertension in China (2018 revision). After a washout period, subjects will be randomized to sacubitril/valsartan group or valsartan group in a 1:1 ratio. The primary outcome is the change in 24 hours average ambulatory systolic blood pressure (SBP) from baseline to 8 weeks after randomization, comparing the sacubitril/valsartan group with valsartan group. The secondary outcomes including change in 24 hours average ambulatory diastolic blood pressure (DBP), clinic blood pressure and series of cardiac and renal hematologic indicators. Safety endpoints will also be evaluated, covered changes in blood potassium level, renal function, hypotension, etc. Full Analysis Set (FAS), per-protocol set (PPS) and safety set (SS) will be defined. Baseline data will be analyzed by using data from FAS whereas the analysis of primary outcome will be based on FAS and PPS but the conclusions of FAS are dominant.

Ethics and dissemination The research protocol has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University. This research is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in Chinese RH patients. Findings will be shared by Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, policymakers and the academic community to promote the clinical pharmacal therapy of RH in China.

Discussion The effects of sacubitril/valsartan on hypertension have been widely reported by a series of large RCT in recent years, while its application in RH patients is still elusive. The study will provide a new pharmacal strategy for the treatment of RH.

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 17 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 19 Sep 2022. 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 China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Dengfeng Geng, Dr. (020-81332623, dr.dfengg@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the change in 24 hours average ambulatory systolic pressure from baseline to 8 weeks after randomization (time frame: 8 weeks after randomization). 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 NCT05545059, which also lists 5 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 19 Sep 2022.
