About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Sevikar® Compared to the Combination of Perindopril/ Amlodipine on Central Arterial Blood Pressure in Patients With Moderate to Severe Hypertension-

Comparison of the combination of amlodipine with an angiotensin receptor blocker or an angiotensin converting inhibitor, on central arterial blood pressure in patients with hypertension and additional risk factors. This is a randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, multicenter study. The duration of active treatment 24 weeks.

Read the detailed description

The study, multi-center balanced, parallel group (two treatment arms), randomized, double-blind (double-dummy), non-inferiority study is designed to show non-inferiority of Sevikar® (olmesartan(OM)/amlodipine (AM)) 40/10 mg compared to the combination of Perindopril (PER) 8 mg plus Amlodipine 10 mg with regard to central systolic blood pressure lowering effect, using the change from baseline (Week 0) to final examination (Week 24).

Male and female Caucasians aged ≥ 40 years and <80 years with moderate to severe hypertension, defined by a systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 160 and ≤ 200 or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 100 and ≤ 115 mmHg for untreated patients, SBP ≥ 140 or DBP ≥ 90 mmHg for insufficiently pre-treated patients and SBP ≥ 130 mmHg or DBP ≥ 80 mmHg for insufficiently pretreated diabetics chronic kidney disease will be eligible for participation. In addition,three additional risk factors should be present.

During the course of the study three central blood pressure measurements (at randomization, at week 12 and at termination) will be performed with SphygmoCor ultrasound method. The conventional measurements with calibrated tensiometers (Omron) will be performed at each visit. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring will be performed at randomisation.

The study starts with a 2-4 week run in phase. AM will be given as open-labelled 5 mg or 10 mg tablets, administered once daily. After randomization during the double-blind phase, study medication will comprise either OM/AM 40/10 mg or PER 8 mg (2x4 mg) plus AM 10 mg and will be administered once daily. Furthermore, open-label HCTZ 12.5 mg and 25.0 mg will be provided in tablets and administered once daily according to the treatment schedule.

The primary endpoint is the change in central SBP from baseline (Week 0, Visit 0) to final examination (Week 24, Visit 5) using Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) approach.

The study is conducted in approximately 15 centres in Spain. Depending on the previously administered drugs the run in phase is up to four weeks (Visits -2 and -1). Individual duration of active treatment (after randomization) will last 24 weeks (Visits 0-5). The total individual duration is 28 weeks.

A total of 518 patients (259 patients/arm) will be needed in the Per Protocol Set (PPS) for the confirmatory primary analysis using mean change from baseline (Week 0) to Final Examination assuming a drop out rate of 20% during Run-in Phase a total of 720 patients have to be screened in order to achieve 576 (288 patients/arm) randomised patients.

Assuming approximately 10% major protocol deviations, a total of 518 patients will remain in the PPS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in central systolic blood pressure from baseline (Week 0, Visit 0) to Final Examination (Week 24, Visit 5) using last observation carried forward approach.

    Measured: Baseline to week 24

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Changes in systolic and diastolic ambulatory blood pressure (mean of 24h, daytime and night-time)

    Measured: Baseline to week 24

  2. Changes in conventional mean sitting systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurement

    Measured: Baseline to 24 weeks

  3. Incidence and profile of AEs separately by Run-in Phase and by double-blind Treatment Phase

    Measured: Run in phase (2 weeks) to end of study (24 weeks)

  4. Number of responders at Final Examination defined as normalized or a decrease of systolic blood pressure by at least 20 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure by at least 10 mmHg in conventional BP measurements.

    Measured: Baseline to 24 weeks

  5. Number of normalized at Final Examination (defined as blood pressure <140/90 mmHg or <130/80 mmHg in diabetics/chronic kidney disease, in conventional BP measurements.

    Measured: Baseline to 24 weeks

  6. Changes in mean sitting systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) measurements from week 12 to Final Exam in patients with stabilized BP (BP is < 140/90 mmHg or < 130/80 mmHg for diabetics/chronic kidney disease) from Week 12 and Week 18.

    Measured: Week 12 to Week 18 or week 24

  7. Changes in Central Systolic Blood Pressure from week 12 to Final Examination in patients with stabilised BP (i.e. patients whose BP is < 140/90 mmHg or < 130/80 mmHg for diabetics/chronic kidney disease) between Week 12 and Week 18.

    Measured: Week 12 to week 18 or week 24

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 11 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 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 15 sites in Spain. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Change in central systolic blood pressure from baseline (Week 0, Visit 0) to Final Examination (Week 24, Visit 5) using last observation carried forward approach. (time frame: Baseline to week 24). 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 NCT01101009, which also lists 2 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 24 Dec 2018.
