研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to test whether abatacept, a drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat rheumatoid arthritis, may help blood pressure medications to work better. This will be studied in people with high blood pressure that is not well controlled on three or more blood pressure medications, the condition also known as resistant hypertension. We expect to show that adding abatacept therapy to standardized treatment of resistant hypertension will result in a greater decrease in blood pressure at 24 weeks compared to treatment with placebo and conventional blood pressure treatment.

研究组 & 干预措施
abatacept
Subjects randomized to abatacept weighing 60 to 100 kg will receive 750 mg, and those >100 kg will receive 1000 mg abatacept by intravenous infusion at 0 [randomization], 2, and 4 weeks and then every 4 weeks thereafter for a total of 24 weeks.
All subjects will be treated with chlorthalidone 25 mg/day, lisinopril 20 mg/day [Patients with a history of adverse reaction to lisinopril will be treated with losartan 50 mg/day], amlodipine 5 mg/day and spironolactone 25 mg bid as standardized treatment of hypertension prior to randomization and throughout the active treatment phase.
干预措施: Abatacept (Drug)
placebo
Subjects randomized to placebo will receive 100 ml normal saline by intravenous infusion at 0 [randomization], 2, and 4 weeks and then every 4 weeks thereafter for a total of 24 weeks.
All subjects will be treated with chlorthalidone 25 mg/day, lisinopril 20 mg/day [Patients with a history of adverse reaction to lisinopril will be treated with losartan 50 mg/day], amlodipine 5 mg/day and spironolactone 25 mg bid as standardized treatment of hypertension prior to randomization and throughout the active treatment phase.
干预措施: Placebo (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Systolic Blood Pressure From Randomization to End of Treatment
时间窗: 6 months
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring will be used at the end of the 4 weeks standardized treatment and at the end of 6 months randomized treatment with abatacept or placebo. The change in systolic blood pressure from these 2 recordings will be the primary endpoint.
次要结局
- Change in Blood Pressure(6 months)
- Change in Brachial Artery Reactivity(6 months)
- Change in Inflammatory Markers(6 months)
