Compare the reduction in office BP following a 8-week regimen of irbesartan / hydrochlorothiazide versus irbesartan

Study Overview

Brief Summary

Study Objectives :

  • To demonstrate the reduction in office Blood Pressure following a 8-week regimen of irbesartan / hydrochlorothiazide using irbesartan as a reference.
  • To demonstrate the reduction in office Blood Pressure after 4-week regimen of irbesartan / hydrochlorothiazide using irbesartan as a reference.
  • To compare the response rate (defined as office Systolic Blood Pressure/Diastolic Blood Pressure reduce more than 10mmHg from Week 0) of patients after 4-week and 8-week regimen of irbesartan / hydrochlorothiazide versus irbesartan.
  • To compare the proportion of patients requiring titration after 4-week regimen of irbesartan/hydrochlorothiazide versus irbesartan
  • To ascertain the safety and tolerability of irbesartan / hydrochlorothiazide versus irbesartan when administered once daily

  • SGOT or SGPT >3 x upper limit of normal.
  • Serum bilirubin > 2 x upper limit of normal.
  • any other condition or therapy that, in the investigator's opinion, or as indicated in the product(s) label may pose a risk to the patient or interfere with the study objectives.
  • any other investigational drug given within 30 days of initiation of therapy, and participation in other clinical studies while enrolled in this protocol.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.
