Device: Renal Denervation
Registration Number
NCT04307836
Lead Sponsor
Kalos Medical
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to show that the safety and efficacy of renal denervation using DENEX, are superior to those of control group for the patients with hypertension on no or 1 to 3 antihypertensive medications.

Detailed Description

DENEX system developed by Handok Kalos Medical Inc. is a renal denervation system to efficiently block the sympathetic nerve of the kidney with minimal invasive procedure. It was developed to block the sympathetic nerves distributed in blood vessel wall by delivering high frequency energy to the renal artery for the purpose of treating hypertension.
