- Conditions
- Hypertension
- Interventions
- Drug: Corever
- Registration Number
- NCT02432937
- Lead Sponsor
- TSH Biopharm Corporation Limited
- Brief Summary
The study primarily aims to compare the effects of two doses of Corever with placebo in patients with hypertension.
- Detailed Description
The study aims to compare the effects of two doses of Corever with placebo in patients with essential hypertension. Eligible subjects who belong to one of the following subtypes are planned to be enrolled: (1) patients with essential hypertension without drug control, or (2) uncontrolled hypertension despite treatment with up to 2 antihypertensive agents. Of note, the second category will receive randomized study treatments in addition to continuing their previous medication throughout the trial. The study also wants to investigate the safety profile of Corever during treatment period.
