INVEST: INternational VErapamil SR Trandolapril STudy

NCT00133692 | Completed Phase 4

• 1 other identifier: INVEST
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 22,000
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

Because blood pressure affects the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and the entire body, it is important to keep it as normal as possible. There are several different ways to control blood pressure and to prevent or limit the development of heart disease due to high blood pressure. The purpose of this study is to compare two treatments to see how well they work and the difference in their side effects. One treatment includes the use of a calcium antagonist drug (Isoptin sustained release \[SR\] or Verapamil SR). The other treatment excludes the calcium antagonist and may include a non-calcium antagonist drug called a beta blocker (Tenormin or Atenolol). Both treatments may also include medication called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and water pills. None of the drugs in this study are experimental, they are all approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 50 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Male or female
• Age 50 to no upper limit
• Hypertension documented according to the 6th report of the Joint National Committee on Detection and Evaluation of the treatment of high BP (JNC VI) and the need for drug therapy (previously documented hypertension in patients currently taking antihypertensive agents is acceptable)
• Documented CAD (e.g., classic angina pectoris (stable angina pectoris; Heberden angina pectoris), myocardial infarction three or more months ago, abnormal coronary angiography, or concordant abnormalities on two different types of stress tests)
• Willingness to sign informed consent

You may not qualify if:

• Unstable angina, angioplasty, coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) or stroke within one month. Patients taking beta blockers after myocardial infarction are excluded if study enrollment is planned within 12 months of myocardial infarction. No time limitation if not taking beta-blocker.
• Use of a ß-blocker within past two weeks
• Patients without a pacemaker and any of the following:
• Sinus bradycardia (\< 50 beats/min.)
• Sick sinus syndrome
• Atrioventricular (AV)-block of more than 1st degree
• Documented contraindication to verapamil; documented contraindication to both atenolol and hydrochlorothiazide
• Atrial fibrillation/flutter with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW)-Syndrome
• Severe heart failure (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] IV).
• Concomitant illnesses (e.g., severe renal failure \[Serum creatinine ≥4.0 mg/dl\], severe hepatic failure or known cirrhosis, etc.) which may affect outcome variables or where life expectancy is two years or less or which are likely to require frequent hospitalizations and/or treatment adjustments.
• Patients with psychiatric, cognitive, or social (e.g., alcoholism, etc.) conditions that would interfere with giving consent or cooperating or remaining available for follow-up for two years.
