Combination of Telmisartan 40 mg Plus Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5 mg vs. Telmisartan 40 mg Alone in Patients With Essential Hypertension Who Fail to Respond Adequately to Telmisartan Monotherapy

Hypertension Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized, Double-Blind Study Comparing a Fixed Dose Combination of Telmisartan 40 mg Plus Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg to Telmisartan 40 mg in Patients Who Fail to Respond Adequately to Treatment With Telmisartan 40 mg

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this trial is to demonstrate that the fixed dose combination of telmisartan 40 mg and HCTZ 12.5 mg is superior to the monocomponent of telmisartan (Micardis, Gliosartan, Kinzal, Kinzalmono, Predxal, Pritor, Samertan, Telmisartan) 40 mg in patients with essential hypertension who fail to respond adequately to telmisartan monotherapy.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group study in patients with essential hypertension who fail to respond adequately to telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg monotherapy.

After a screening and a 2-week washout period (screening period), the patients will enter 4-week open-label run-in period with telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg monotherapy to assess eligibility. The study will be terminated for those who have responded to telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg monotherapy at the end of 4-week open-label run-in period with telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg monotherapy (mean seated DBP < 90 mmHg). About 200 patients not responding adequately to telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg monotherapy will be randomised and treated for 8 weeks with once-daily administration of either telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg or a fixed dose combination of telmisartan 40 mg and HCTZ 12.5 mg (double-blind treatment period).

Study Hypothesis:

The hypothesis is that the fixed dose combination of telmisartan 40 mg and HCTZ 12.5 mg is superior to the monocomponent of telmisartan (Micardis) 40 mg in pat ient with essential hypertension who fail to respond adequately to telmisartan monotherapy.

Comparison(s):

For the primary comparison the change from baseline in mean stated trough DBP at the end of the 8-week double-blind treatment will be expressed. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
