NCT00926289
The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate that the fixed-dose combination of T80/HCTZ25 is superior as first line therapy in reducing seated trough cuff Systolic Blood Pressure(SBP) compared to the monotherapy of T80 in patients with grade 2 or grade 3 hypertension (SBP\>=160 mmHg and Diastolic Blood Pressure(DBP)\>=100 mmHg).
NCT00879229
Ambrisentan is an endothelin receptor antagonist used for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Based on research suggesting a role for endothelin-1 in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and the poor prognosis for patients with IPF who are also diagnosed with PH, this study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ambrisentan in that patient population.
NCT00093262
The purpose of this study is to establish the efficacy of of clevidipine versus placebo in treating postoperative hypertension. Approximately 100 patients with postoperative hypertension undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) or minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgery and/or valve replacement/repair procedures were anticipated to be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups: clevidipine or placebo.
NCT00093912
The purpose of this study is to establish the safety of clevidipine in the treatment of perioperative hypertension. Approximately 250-500 patients with perioperative hypertension undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) or minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgery and/or valve replacement/repair procedures were anticipated to be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups: clevidipine or sodium nitroprusside.
NCT01508026
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combination of nebivolol and valsartan compared to monotherapy and placebo in patients with stage 1 and stage 2 hypertension.
NCT00389779
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled study of a new experimental drug called darusentan. Darusentan is not currently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which means that a doctor cannot prescribe this drug. The purpose of this study is to determine if darusentan is effective in reducing systolic and diastolic hypertension despite treatment with full doses of three or more antihypertensive drugs, including a diuretic. Subjects will be randomized to darusentan (optimized dose), an active comparator, or placebo, administered orally. The treatment period for this trial is 14 weeks.
NCT00563901
High blood pressure is one of the most common health problems in the United States. There are many medications to treat high blood pressure, but there is a large variance in how people respond to these medications. It is believed that genetic variations may contribute to the inconsistent treatment response. This study will use genetic analysis to determine whether particular genes interact with high blood pressure medications to modify the risk of certain cardiovascular diseases.
NCT00389675
This is a double-blind, active-controlled, long-term study of a new experimental drug called darusentan. Darusentan in not currently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which means that a doctor cannot prescribe this drug. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of darusentan (optimized dose) as compared to an active control, administered orally.
NCT00274638
To demonstrate that Telmisartan combined with Hydrochlorothiazide (MICARDIS® HCT) is superior to Losartan with Hydrochlorothiazide (Hyzaar®) in lowering blood pressure in mild-moderate hypertensives.
NCT00370214
The REVEAL Registry™ is a multicenter, observational, U.S.-based study of the clinical course and disease management of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. All consecutive consenting patients diagnosed with WHO Group I PAH according to specific hemodynamic criteria at participating institutions will be enrolled. Participating patients will be followed for a minimum of five years from the time of enrollment.
NCT00059306
The goal of this study is to learn if combination antiplatelet therapy (aspirin and clopidogrel) is more effective than aspirin alone for the prevention of recurrent stroke and cognitive decline, and if intensive blood pressure control is associated with fewer recurrent strokes and cognitive decline. On July 21, 2011 the DSMB recommended terminating the anti platelet arm of the study due to an imbalance of overall and major non-CNS hemorrhagic SAE's and total deaths in the investigational anti platelet combination of aspirin + clopidogrel and an interim statistical analysis that demonstrated futility in the investigational anti platelet arm. It was recommended that patients be continued on standard care of aspirin mono therapy until their study close-out visit. Also, recommended the continuation and completion of the plood pressure arm following the protocol.
NCT00467896
A Comparison of Safety and Inhalation Times of Ventavis (iloprost) Inhalation Solution delivered by I-Neb Utilizing Power Disc-6 and Power Disc-15 "Power 15 Study"
NCT01105117
This is an open-label, non-randomized extension to study AC-066A401. The study will assess safety and tolerability of ACT-385781A and Flolan (epoprostenol sodium) while providing a means for continuing treatment after ending participation in study AC-0066A401.
NCT00617305
To evaluate the change from baseline in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), and other hemodynamic parameters, following the addition of ambrisentan to background phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitor (PDE-5i) therapy in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who have demonstrated a sub-optimal response to PDE-5i monotherapy. The study was originally designed as a 2-arm, double-blind, randomized study in which patients received ambrisentan or placebo for 24 weeks, and then received ambrisentan blinded to dose for 24 weeks. With Protocol Amendment 2 (12 June, 2009), the study was switched to single-arm, open-label treatment, and all patients remaining in the placebo arm were switched to open-label ambrisentan treatment. Patients who enrolled after Amendment 2 all received open-label ambrisentan.
NCT00818883
The purpose of this study is to compare the antihypertensive effect of chlorthalidone vs hydrochlorothiazide when each is used with azilsartan medoxomil, once daily (QD), in participants with moderate to severe essential hypertension.
NCT01410188
This is a study of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (measurement of drug levels in the blood), and intraocular pressure lowering effects of OPA-6566 ophthalmic solution in subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
NCT00330369
This is a research study of a new experimental drug called darusentan. Darusentan is not currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the United States, which means that a doctor cannot prescribe this drug. The purpose of this study is to determine if darusentan is effective in reducing systolic blood pressure in subjects with resistant systolic hypertension, despite treatment with full doses of three or more antihypertensive drugs, including a diuretic.
NCT00723554

NCT01134393
The general aim of this trial to determine the efficacy as measured by the percentage of patients reaching blood pressure goal at the end of the treatment period at 12 weeks. In-clinic blood pressures, home blood pressures and safety will be carefully monitored.
NCT01043627
Assess tolerability, transition methods and clinical effects of transition from sildenafil (Revatio) to tadalafil (Adcirca) for treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
