About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Finerenone in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism: a Randomized, Controlled Trial

To study the efficacy and safety of finerenone in patients with primary aldosteronism

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective and randomized study involving patients with primary aldosteronism(PA). All paticipants will be randomized into finerenone group(Intervention group) and spironolactone group(Control group) and to compare the antihypertensive effect in patients with PA.

If the self-measured blood pressure of patients at home continues to be greater than 140/90 mmHg at 2-4 weeks, spironolactone or finerenone should be increased to 40mg qd, and electrolytes should be reviewed at 2 weeks after dosed.

What participants receive

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

  • finerenoneDrug

    Also called Kerendia

    Patients with PA divided into Intervention group need to take finerenone for 60 days (20mg qd).

What is being measured

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

  1. Compare the change of daytime mean systolic blood pressure in the overall cohort between two groups.

    Measured by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

    Measured: At baseline and 2 month of follow-up

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Compare the serum potassium elevation in the overall cohort between two groups.

    Measured by blood electrolytes

    Measured: At baseline and 2 month of follow-up

  2. Compare the change of daytime mean diastolic blood pressure in the overall cohort between two groups.

    Measured by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

    Measured: At baseline and 2 month of follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing finerenone in people with Primary Aldosteronism, run by Chongqing Medical University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 18 Jun 2024. 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.

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?

Compare the change of daytime mean systolic blood pressure in the overall cohort between two groups. (time frame: At baseline and 2 month of follow-up). 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 18 Jun 2024.
