Benazepril Hydrochloride, Lisinopril, Ramipril, or Losartan Potassium in Treating Hypertension in Patients With Solid Tumors
- Conditions
- HypertensionUnspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific
- Interventions
- Other: laboratory biomarker analysis
- Registration Number
- NCT01234922
- Lead Sponsor
- Wake Forest University Health Sciences
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Benazepril hydrochloride, lisinopril, ramipril, and losartan potassium may help lower blood pressure.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well benazepril hydrochloride, lisinopril, ramipril, or losartan potassium works in treating hypertension in patients with solid tumors.
- Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine which drug has the greatest effect on Ang-(1-7) levels in cancer patients with hypertension.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the effect of these drugs on levels of Ang II, VEGF, PlGF, and ACE in the same patients.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms.
* ARM I: Patients receive oral benazepril hydrochloride once daily on days 1-7.
* ARM II: Patients receive oral lisinopril once daily on days 1-7.
* ARM III: Patients receive oral ramipril twice daily on days 1-7.
* ARM IV: Patients receive oral losartan potassium once daily on days 1-7. In all arms, treatment continues in the absence of unacceptable toxicity.
