Change From Baseline in Mean Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure (msSBP)
时间窗: Baseline, 8 weeks
To compare the change from baseline in mean sitting systolic blood pressure (msSBP) after 8 weeks of treatment with a combination of aliskiren and amlodipine treatment regimen (150/5 mg, 300/10 mg) versus an amlodipine treatment regimen (5 mg, 10 mg) in African American patients with Stage 2 hypertension.
