About this study

Official title: A 24-Week Multicentre, Randomized, Double-Blind, Controlled, Parallel Group Non-Inferiority Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Olmesartan Medoxomil Versus Candesartan Cilexetil in Patients With Symptomatic Heart Failure (NYHA II-IV)

This study will compare olmesartan medoxomil to candesartan cilexetil in reducing BNP, a prognostic biomarker of heart failure, at week 24

Being tested
olmesartan medoxomil + candesartan cilexetil placebo, olmesartan medoxomil placebo + candesartan cilexetil

What is being measured

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

  1. Absolute BNP change from week 0 to 24 of treatment

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Proportion of BNP responders at week 4, 8, 16 and 24 (BNP levels reduced to 350 pg/ml or less at all time points)

    Measured: 24 weeks maximum

  2. BNP change from week 0 to week 4, 8, and 16

    Measured: 16 weeks maximum

  3. Incidence of critical events at 24 weeks: All cause death; Cardiovascular death defined as death due to: HF, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrhythmia, stroke/cerebral vascular accident, other cardiovascular cause (e.g., aneurysm or pulmonary embolism)

    Measured: 24 weeks

  4. Event-free survival

    Measured: 24 weeks

  5. Time-to-death

    Measured: 24 weeks

  6. Time-to-first cardiovascular event

    Measured: 24 weeks maximum

  7. Change in clinical status: Improvement: patient alive without any cardiovascular event with an improvement of at least one NYHA functional class level; No change: patient alive without any cardiovascular event with stable functional NYHA class

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study of Chronic Heart Failure and High Blood B-type (or Brain) Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) Level, run by Daiichi Sankyo Europe, GmbH, a Daiichi Sankyo Company at 11 sites in 3 countries.

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 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in France, Germany, Netherlands. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Lack of subject recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Absolute BNP change from week 0 to 24 of treatment (time frame: 24 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 24 Dec 2018.
