NCT00695955
This purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of azilsartan medoxomil in individuals with essential hypertension.
NCT00091598
The primary objective is to determine the effect of ambrisentan on exercise capacity in subjects with PAH.
NCT00244595
The objectives of this study are to describe candesartan cilexetil antihypertensive effects in terms of achieved blood pressure and hypertension control rates and the relationship between subject characteristics and antihypertensive efficacy, and between antihypertensive therapy (candesartan cilexetil dose and add-on treatments) and efficacy over a 1 year treatment period in hypertensive children ages 6 to \< 17 years; to describe growth in terms of height and weight in the study population; to describe change in neurocognition as assessed by the Full Scaled IQ score in a subset of study subjects; to determine the pharmacokinetics of candesartan in hypertensive paediatric subjects ages 6 to \< 17 years; and to describe safety including adverse events and adverse events necessitating study drug discontinuation including dose level and dose duration relationships and growth over a 1 year period in hypertensive children age 6 to \< 17 years.
NCT00007592
Hypertension is one of the most common medical problems in the United States and in the VA health care system. It has been well-documented that hypertension can be effectively treated. However, there remain important unresolved clinical questions in the area of antihypertensive treatment. For example, how much is mortality affected by visit compliance, blood pressure control and type of antihypertensive agent? Or, are some regimens associated with more morbidity than others? Or, are there inexpensive regimens that are as effective as more expensive regimens? The amount of data that is available from this demonstration project (currently 6,100 patients) will help address these questions. The answers to these questions should result in better care for veterans with hypertension.
NCT00323024
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of inhaled NX1011 for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
NCT00696436
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of azilsartan medoxomil, once daily (QD), compared to placebo, valsartan and olmesartan in participants with essential hypertension.
NCT00673075
This study is being done to see if the blood pressure lowering effect of an approved drug nebivolol is comparable to that of another approved drug carvedilol for the treatment of hypertension in patients who have coronary artery disease.
NCT00705575
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of once daily dosing of aliskiren monotherapy to once daily dosing of aliskiren and hydrochlorothiazide combination therapy in patients with Stage II hypertension over a period of 12 weeks.
NCT00109681
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether iloprost inhalation solution is safe in subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and elevated pulmonary arterial pressure. The secondary purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of this treatment in subjects with this disease.
NCT00453414
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of iloprost for PAH in children who are between the ages of 3 and 18 years old.
NCT00527514
This study will be conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of an amlodipine/olmesartan treatment regimen in stage 1 and stage 2 hypertensive subjects.
NCT00331188
The main objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of early administration of Sanvar® in combination with endoscopic treatment for the control of acute variceal bleeding.
NCT00537043
Carvedilol controlled release is a marketed drug to treat high blood pressure. This study is to compare carvedilol controlled release to carvedilol controlled release plus lisinopril (fixed-dose combination) after repeat dosing in patients with high blood pressure. This is to make sure that when carvedilol controlled release is given with lisinopril it acts the same in the body as when given alone. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of the fixed-dose combination.
NCT00325962
The purpose of this study is to determine whether 6R-BH4 (sapropterin dihydrochloride) is safe and effective in the treatment of poorly controlled hypertension in the presence or absence of type 2 diabetes.
NCT00654745
To determine if olmesartan plus amlodipine combination therapy alone and with hydrochlorothiazide will be safe and effective to reduce high blood pressure in hypertensive, type 2 diabetic subjects.
NCT00441064
This study will compare the effects of high and low level sodium (salt) diets on blood pressure in patients with hypertension (high blood pressure) who are taking aliskiren 300 mg.
NCT00345774
This study is being conducted to see if PRX-08066 can lower pulmonary artery pressures in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
NCT00160160
This study is to demonstrate the superiority of combination of eprosartan/HCTZ versus ramipril/HCTZ.
NCT00834041
This first open-label study in a pediatric population was designed to evaluate aliskiren safety and pharmacokinetics after single and multiple dosing in 6-17 year old children with hypertension.
NCT00125918
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of tadalafil for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
