简要总结
Randomized, open-label, parallel-group study conducted at a single center in Switzerland.
Patients diagnosed with primary arterial hypertension requiring antihypertensive drug Treatment as well as patients after a 4 week wash out period (Amendment 07/2016) will be recruited at the University Hospital Basel, Switzerland. Subjects will be randomized to either the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-, angiotensin receptor blocker-, calcium channel blocker- or hydrochlorothiazide-treatment arm. Drug treatment follows current guidelines issued by the European Society of Hypertension. Treatment-naive patients will be started on an intermediate dose monotherapy (treatment period 1). In all patients who do not reach blood pressure targets after 4 weeks, the dose of the monotherapy drug will be doubled (high dose, treatment period 2). Sampling for the analysis of RAS peptide profiles, measurement of drug concentrations in plasma and non-invasive hemodynamic measurements will be done. A control group with 20 age and gender matched, healthy and normotensive subjects will be recruited to establish the characteristics of the RAS peptide profiles in a comparable but normotensive population.
详细描述
This will be a single-center, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study in patients with treatment-naive arterial hypertension to characterize RAS peptide profiles before and after treatment initiation with different antihypertensive drug-classes. Patients diagnosed with primary arterial hypertension requiring antihypertensive drug treatment as well as patients after a 4 week wash out period (Amendment from 07/2016) will be recruited from the Medical Outpatient Clinic at the University Hospital Basel, Switzerland. Diagnostic work-up and follow-up assessments after treatment initiation such as 24 hour blood pressure measurement will be performed according to clinical practice guidelines and will only be documented but not altered by this study. Study mandated procedures will be randomization to one of the four standard first-line treatment arms, blood sampling for RAS peptide profile and drug concentration determination, and non-invasive hemodynamic measurements. After having provided written informed consent, patients will be randomized to either the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-, angiotensin receptor blocker-, calcium channel blocker- or hydrochlorothiazide-treatment arm. Drug treatment follows current guidelines issued by the European Society of Hypertension . According to clinical practice, treatment-naive patients with grade I and grade II hypertension will directly be started on an intermediate dose monotherapy (treatment period 1).
Treatment period 1:
4 weeks of intermediate dose monotherapy with the angiotensin-converting enzyme Inhibitor perindopril OR the angiotensin receptor blocker olmesartan OR the calcium channel blocker amlodipine OR the hydrochlorothiazide
In all patients who do not reach blood pressure targets according to the 2013 ESH guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension after 4 weeks, the dose of the monotherapy drug will be doubled (high dose, treatment period 2), following current guidelines
Treatment period 2:

入选标准
- •Male or female outpatients with previously untreated non-secondary arterial hypertension, defined as: office-systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and ≤ 180 mmHg and office-diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg and ≤110 mmHg (ESH grade I and II hypertension).
- •Male or female outpatients with previously treated non-secondary arterial Hypertension after a wash out period of 4 weeks (Amendment 07/2016)
- •Evaluation of 24h blood pressure measurement fulfills criteria of hypertension: mean systolic blood pressure / diastolic blood pressure ≥ 130/80 on average, ≥ 135/85 during the day, or ≥ 120/70 during the night.
- •Age ≥ 18 years
- •Body mass index between 18 and 35 kg/m²
- •Body weight at least 50 kg
- •Ability to understand study procedures and to provide written informed consent
- •Hematology and clinical chemistry results not deviating from the normal range to a clinically relevant extent at screening.
- •12-lead ECG without clinically relevant abnormalities (Exception: signs of left ventricular hypertrophy with Sokolow index >3.5mV).
- •Female study participants less than one year post-menopausal must, be non-pregnant and non-lactating, and willing to use an adequate and highly effective method of contraception throughout the study and for 1 week after the last dose. A highly effective method of birth control is defined as those which result in a low failure rate (i.e. less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly such as, implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, some intrauterine devices (IUD) (hormonal) in combination with a condom or sterilisation, sexual abstinence or vasectomised partner.
排除标准

- •History of or clinically evident cardiovascular disease (other than arterial hypertension), namely myocardial infarction and valvular heart disease or heart failure.
- •Ventricular or dual pacemaker wearers
- •Uni- or bilateral renal artery stenosis
- •Renal dysfunction, defined as estimated creatinine-clearance < 60 ml/min
- •Recipient of kidney transplant
- •Moderate or severe hepatic impairment

- •History of alcohol abuse
- •Loss of ≥ 250 ml of blood within 3 months prior to screening.
- •Known hypersensitivity to any of the four antihypertensive drugs or any excipients of the drug formulations
- •History or clinical evidence of any disease and / or existence of any surgical or medical condition, which might interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of the study drugs, or which might increase the risk for toxicity.
- •Participation in another clinical trial within past 30 days
- •Any circumstances or conditions, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may affect full participation in the study or compliance with the protocol.
