This was a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of IONIS-AGT-LRx conducted in mild hypertensive participants.
Prehypertension and mild hypertension affect an estimated 157 million U.S. adults. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and associated mortality is elevated in this population. Treatment options are limited consisting of lifestyle modification, which is often ineffective, or drug therapy, which carries risk of side effects. Highly safe, efficacious, and acceptable treatment options for this population are needed. Hawthorn standardized extract (HSE) is approved for use in Europe to treat heart failure, and preliminary evidence suggests it may have a blood pressure lowering effect. However, prior trials of hawthorn have based dosage recommendations on animal studies. Therefore, the investigators propose a dose-finding study to measure the pharmacodynamic effect of three doses of standardized hawthorn extract and placebo.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of LFF269 compared to placebo after treatment in subjects with essential hypertension.
The goal of this study is to find out whether the plant compounds present in Hibiscus sabdariffa, a plant commonly used in herbal tea blends and other beverages, will have a beneficial effect on blood pressure in people with mildly elevated blood pressure.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of initial treatment therapy with valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) versus the initial treatment therapy with monotherapies (valsartan or HCTZ) in the very elderly patients (greater than or equal to 70 years) with stage 1 or 2 hypertension
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging has emerged as a potential valuable test for the early detection of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. A number of reports have provided some preliminary evidence that Pulmonary Artery (PA) stiffness may be accurately detected by imaging of the pulmonary artery in order to measure PA stiffness. In addition, cardiac MRI could play provide early and effective treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).

The purpose of this study was to determine if nebivolol is superior to placebo for the treatment of elevated blood pressure in Black patients with mild to moderate hypertension.
The primary objectives are to demonstrate that MICARDIS® (telmisartan) is statistically superior to Diovan® (valsartan) in reducing diastolic blood pressure (DBP) following a missed dose at the end of a 6 to 8-week treatment period as measured by the 24-hour ABPM mean and to demonstrate that MICARDIS® is statistically superior to Diovan® in reducing DBP during the last 6-hours of the 24-hour dosing interval as measured by ABPM following a dose of active study medication at the end of a 6 to 8-week treatment period.
Acupuncture therapy will be provided to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients. The mild to moderate hypertensive patients will be either on or off hypertensive medications. The course last for 8 weeks and the frequency is once a week.
The purpose of this study is to determine the blood pressure lowering responses of various dose combinations of nifedipine GITS and candesartan as compared to treatment with each component on their own (monotherapy) and placebo (a look-alike tablet without active ingredient). The drugs - nifedipine GITS and candesartan - which are being investigated are currently approved for use in patients with essential hypertension alone or together with other antihypertensive drugs (combination therapy), but the optimal dose of nifedipine GITS and candesartan used together in the treatment of essential hypertension has not been established yet. In this study patients will be treated with various doses of nifedipine GITS and/or candesartan or placebo. These different regimens will be administered once a day and will be assessed based on their blood pressure lowering effects (mean sitting diastolic blood pressure) in subjects with mild to moderate essential hypertension.
Based on previous published research in animals and human, the investigators hypothesize that electroacupuncture (EA) will have a positive effect on hypertension.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate dose response of blood pressure lowering for 4 doses of AHU377, given once daily (50 mg, 100 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg) in combination with a fixed dose of valsartan (320 mg).
This study was designed to determine whether treatment with COREG MR is more effective at maintaining a better lipid profile than treatment with TOPROL-XL for hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of QCZ484 or placebo, given subcutaneously, every 6 months, at different dose levels in patients with mild to moderate hypertension
The purpose of the bpMedManage study is to rigorously test the efficacy of a smartphone technology to help improve high blood pressure medication adherence among older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in a 16-week randomized controlled trial. A total of 100 older adults will be recruited. There will be two treatment arms, bpMedManage-S and bpMedManage-P with 50 participants in each arm. Participants randomized into the bpMEDManage-S intervention arm will use a smartphone application with medication reminders plus receive education with standardized information on hypertension and antihypertensive medications on the education portal. Participants in the bpMedManage-P group will use a smartphone to receive education with standardized information on hypertension and antihypertensive medications on an education portal. Both groups will complete baseline assessments followed by 4 weeks of medication adherence monitoring. At the end of the adherence monitoring period, participants will be randomized into one of the two treatment arms. Immediate outcomes on primary and secondary measures will be assessed 4 weeks after beginning of the intervention. Follow-up outcomes will be assessed 12 weeks after the beginning of the intervention.
The purpose of this research study is to measure cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) clearance in subjects with and without high blood pressure. CSF cushions the brain from impact and carries waste products from the brain to the bloodstream. This process is known as clearance. Impaired removal of proteins from the aging brain causes their buildup and may contribute to an increased risk for Alzheimer's disease. It is also suspected that clearance may be related to the health of vessels carrying the blood throughout the brain. It is known that high blood pressure damages blood vessels and thus may impair clearance. In this project we will examine if having high blood pressure is related to impaired brain clearance and whether treating high blood pressure improves clearance and reduces buildup of Alzheimer's disease-related proteins. Participants will be asked to undergo a medical examination, testing of memory, brain imaging (both magnetic resonance and positron emission tomography, and spinal tap at the beginning of the study and 1 -2 years later.
This purpose of this study is to examine an aggressive method of blood pressure control that involves home blood pressure monitoring and management of medications by a team of clinical pharmacists in coordination with a primary care physician.
The primary objectives of this study are to compare the safety, tolerability, and mean change from baseline in diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) of ONO-9054 30 µg/mL (0.003%) to latanoprost 0.005% following ocular instillation once every evening for 28 days.
Hypertension is an important risk factor of cardiovascular (CVD) and renal diseases. Epidemiological studies show that there is a direct relationship between blood pressure and CVD, and cardiovascular mortality increases progressively throughout the range of blood pressure, including the prehypertensive range. There is also evidence from cell and animal studies that shrimp tissue hydrolysates may have higher ACE inhibitory activity than other marine protein hydrolysates. It is hypothesized that Marealis RPC (refined peptide concentrate)will lower systolic blood pressure in subjects with elevated blood pressure.
Vascular risk factors may account for up to 80% of the memory and thinking problems experienced by our aging population today, by far in excess of that caused by Alzheimer's disease. By doing this study, we hope to learn how vascular risk factors cause memory and thinking changes in the elderly, and whether we can prevent memory and thinking changes by reducing these risk factors. Successful completion of project aims will allow an integrated understanding of mild cognitive impairment caused by vascular risks (MCI-CVD) with the potential for tremendous impact on one of the major healthcare crises facing the nation today. The study will enroll 80 participants with memory and thinking problems (mild cognitive impairment; MCI) and are at risk for stroke and further difficulties with memory and thinking that may eventually lead to disability and a diagnosis of dementia. Each participant will be randomized into one of two groups (40 in each group) and followed over 36 months. One group will be followed to allow us to understand the natural history of memory and thinking impairment, while the other group will receive intensive education and assistance with vascular risk factor (CVD) control.
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients with pulmonary hypertension and mildly elevated heart pressure known as PCWP will exhibit different patterns on echocardiography and that these patterns will predict treatment response to sildenafil, a drug given for this condition.
