What is being measured

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

  1. The Change in Urinary Protein/Creatinine Ratio From Baseline to 28 Weeks

    Decrease of urinary protein/creatinine ratio means improvement of renal disease.

    Measured: baseline to 28 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change of Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure From Baseline

    Measured: baseline to 28 weeks

  2. Inflammatory Marker (Hs-C-peptide Reactive Protein)

    To evaluate how to reduce and relate with cardiovascular risk

    Measured: baseline to 28 weeks

  3. Estimated GFR Predicted From the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Equation

    GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 186 x (Scr)-1.154 x (Age)-0.203 x (0.742 if female) x (1.210 if African-American) (conventional units)

    Measured: 28 weeks

  4. Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    Prevalence of adverse events after treatment regardless causality. An adverse event is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the deterioration of a pre-existing medical condition from the signing of the informed consent, whether or not considered causally related to the product.

    Measured: Baseline to 28 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Candesartan Cilexetil and Candesartan Cilexetil 32mg in people with Non-diabetic Nephropathy With Hypertension, run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Aug 2011. 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 South Korea. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Jul 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Change in Urinary Protein/Creatinine Ratio From Baseline to 28 Weeks (time frame: baseline to 28 weeks). 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 23 Aug 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
