- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Mean Trough Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 16 8 weeks, change = week 16 - week 8 Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Mean Trough Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 12. 4 weeks, change = week 12 - week 8 Change = Week 12 - Week 8 (baseline).
Change in Mean Trough Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 16. 8 weeks, change = week 16 - week 8 Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).
Change in Mean Trough Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 12. 4 weeks, change = week 12 - week 8 Change = Week 12 - Week 8 (baseline).
Number of Patients Achieving Target Blood Pressure at Week 16 8 weeks Target Blood Pressure is diastolic blood pressure (dBP) \< 90 mmHg and systolic blood pressure (sBP) \< 140 mmHg for non-diabetics, and dBP \< 80 mmHg and sBP \< 130 mmHg for diabetics
Change in Mean Daytime Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Diastolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 16. 8 weeks, change = week 16 - week 8 Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).
Change in Mean Night-time Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Diastolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 16. 8 weeks, change = week 16 - week 8 Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).
Change in Mean 24-hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Diastolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 16. 8 weeks, change = week 16 - week 8 Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).
