Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 60 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Aged 60-80 years old
  • Have been taking antihypertensive drugs for more than 2 weeks
  • The average SBP and/or DBP of 7-day home blood pressure monitoring ≥135/85 mmHg
  • Willing to participate, adhere to follow-up, and sign the written informed consent form

Who cannot join

  • Arm circumference too large or too small (less than 18 cm or greater than 42 cm) to fit the cuff in case of inaccurate measurement
  • Invalid home blood pressure monitoring. The valid home blood pressure monitoring requires consecutive measurements for at least 3 days, with not less than 1 measurement in the morning and evening, respectively.
  • Office blood pressure indicates stage 3 clinic hypertension (≥180/110 mmHg) during the screening period
  • Suspected or known secondary hypertension
  • Orthostatic hypotension, defined as a decrease in systolic blood pressure greater than 20 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure greater than 10 mmHg within 3 minutes when position is changed from sitting to standing
  • eGFR<30 ml/min/1.73m2 or end-stage renal disease
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Cardiovascular events occured within the past 3 months, such as myocardial infarction, stroke, acute heart failure, hospitalization for unstable angina, undergoing coronary artery revascularization or bypass grafting
  • Abnormal liver function (ALT/AST/total bilirubin more than 2 times the upper limit of normal value)
  • Severe somatic disease with a life expectancy of less than 3 years, or diagnosed with cancer within the past 2 years requiring treatment
  • Doctors deem that the participation would do harm to the patients or the patients would have poor compliance.

About this study

The primary purpose of the study is to explore whether a lower home blood pressure target (125/75 v.s. 135/85 mmHg) would be beneficial to elderly treated hypertensive patients in terms of reduced incidence of cardiovascular events. The study also aims to promote the application of standardised and information-based home blood pressure monitoring in community hypertension management.

Being tested
Intensive Home BP control, Standard Home BP control

What participants receive

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

  • Intensive Home BP controlDrug

    Also called Home BP<125/75 mmHg

    If the target home BP level is not achieved during the follow-up periods, type and dosage of antihypertensive drugs will be adjusted according to current guidelines and physician's clinical experience.

  • Standard Home BP controlDrug

    Also called Home BP<135/85 mmHg

    If the target home BP level is not achieved during the follow-up periods, type and dosage of antihypertensive drugs will be adjusted according to current guidelines and physician's clinical experience.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite of adverse cardiovascular events

    Composite of major adverse cardiovascular events consisting of death from cardiovascular diseases, non-fatal stroke, myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG]), hospitalization for heart failure or unstable agina.

    Measured: 48 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Components of the primary outcome

    Occurrence of any components of the primary outcome (death from cardiovascular diseases, non-fatal stroke, myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG]), hospitalization for heart failure or unstable agina).

    Measured: 48 months

  2. Renal outcome

    Including end stage renal disease (ESRD) and a decrease in the eGFR of 30% or more

    Measured: 48 months

  3. Adverse or severe adverse events

    Especially dizziness and falls caused by hypotension, and orthostatic hypotension

    Measured: 48 months

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 10 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2025. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Yan Li, Professor (+8613482234463, liyanshcn@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composite of adverse cardiovascular events (time frame: 48 months). 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 NCT05858944, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Jan 2025.
