结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Mean Systolic Blood Pressure (MSBP) at Week 6 Endpoint
时间窗: Baseline, week 6
Patient's blood pressure will be measured in the same position at every visit Systolic and diastolic blood pressures will be measured three times at 2-3 minute intervals. The arithmetic mean of these three blood pressure measurements will be used as the mean office blood pressure (MSBP and MDBP) at Baseline and Week 6 endpoint in Period 1 Double Blind Phase
次要结局
- Patients Achieving <90th Percentile for Age, Gender and Height at Week 6 Endpoint in Both MSBP and MDBP(Week 6)
- CKD Patients Achieving Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio Percentage Reduction (UACR) >=25% at Week 6(Week 6 weeks)
- Change From Baseline in Mean Diastolic Blood Pressure (MDBP) at Week 6(Baseline, Week 6)
