- NCT00624065
- Lead Sponsor
- GlaxoSmithKline
- Brief Summary
Randomized, double-blind, parallel group, multicenter study of subjects with Stage 1 or 2 essential hypertension who are not at target blood pressure (\<140/90mmHg) at Baseline. Subjects will be randomized to receive either carvedilol CR + lisinopril or lisinopril + placebo. Subjects will be uptitrated over a 6 week period until target blood pressure (\<140/90mmHg) is met. The primary objective of the study is to compare the proportion of subjects who achieve target blood pressure after 6 weeks of treatment.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Mean Sitting Cuff Blood Pressure <140/90 mmHg at the End of 6 Weeks of Treatment Week 6 Sitting cuff blood pressure was calculated as the mean of three measurements taken approximately 2 minutes apart, and before the morning dose.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mean Change From Baseline in Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure (sSBP) and Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure (sDBP) at Week 6 Baseline and Week 6 Mean change was calculated as Week 6 values minus Baseline values.
