Brief Summary

**Study Title:** A multicentric, prospective, comparative, randomized phase IV study for evaluation of efficacy and safety of efonidipine 40 mg tablet in comparison to cilnidipine 10 mg tablet in the management of hypertension.

**Study Objective:** To evaluate the efiicacy and safety of efonidipine 40 mg in comparison with clinidipine 10 mg tablets.

**Primary Objective:** To assess and compare the efficacy of efonidipine 40 mg and cilnidipine 10 mg in blood pressure reduction.

**Secondary Objective:**

a) To evaluate and compare the effect of the two treatment groups on reduction of proteinuria.

b) To evaluate the number of patients achieving target BP as per JNC VIII guideline.

c) To evaluate and compare the safety of the two treatments over  a period of 3 months.

**Estimated Sample Size:** 1000 patients.A drop out rate of 20%shall be considered, therefore, total of 1200 patients may be recruited.

**Treatment:** Efonidipine and Cilnidipine groups will be randomised in 3:1 ratio.

**Study endpoints:**

**Primary outcomes:**

1. Mean change in sitting systolic blood pressure from day 0 to day 90.

2. Mean change in sitting diastolic blood  pressure from day 0 to day 90.

**Secondary outcomes:**

1. Changes in proteinuria from day 0 after day 90 of the treatment.

2. Mean change in systolic blood pressure from day 0 to day 30 and day 60.

3. Mean change in diastolic blood pressure from day o to day 30 and day 60.

4. Number of patients achieving target blood pressure as per JNC VIII guidelines for Hypertension.

5. Number of patients reporting incidences of adverse events or Serious adverse events
