NCT00460915

Brief Summary

Primary Objective -To investigate the clinical effectiveness of lacidipine and amlodipine on systolic blood pressure (SBP) in Korean ISH patients aged 60 to 80 years. Secondary Objectives -To investigate the clinical effectiveness of lacidipine and amlodipine on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in Korean ISH patients aged 60 to 80 years To demonstrate the effectiveness of lacidipine and amlodipine on endothelial function through measurement of markers of inflammation.

Eligibility Criteria

Age55 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male or female 55 to 80 years of age at screening
  • The subject has been newly diagnosed as essential hypertension or not treated in the past 2 weeks. If the subject took medication in the past 2 weeks, a wash-out period of at least 2 weeks will be completed prior to performing screening (week -2) assessments
  • The subject has a mean seated SBP at screening visit ≥ 140mmHg (as measured by a mercury sphygmomanometer)
  • Isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) patient (SBP≥ 140mmHg, DBP ≤90mmHg)
  • If the subject is a female of child-bearing potential, she agrees to practice acceptable contraceptive measures during the study, and for 30 days after the last dose of study medication is taken
  • The subject has given written informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Mean seated SBP of \> 180 mmHg at screening and during the study
  • Known or suspected secondary hypertension
  • The subject has anemia defined by hemoglobin concentration \< 10.0 g/dL for male or female
  • The subject has a hemoglobinopathy or peripheral vascular disease
  • The subject has presence of clinically significant renal or hepatic disease (i.e., subjects with serum creatinine \> 1.4 mg/dL;ALT, AST, total bilirubin, or alkaline phosphatase \> 2.5 times the upper limit of the normal (ULN) reference range
  • The subject has presence of unstable or severe angina, coronary insufficiency, or any congestive heart failure requiring pharmacologic treatment
  • The subject has a chronic disease requiring intermittent or chronic treatment with oral, intravenous, or intra-articular corticosteroids (i.e., only use of topical, inhaled or nasal corticosteroids is permissible)
  • Past medical history or concomitant disease of metabolic acidosis or diabetic ketoacidosis
  • The subject has a diagnosis of cancer (other than squamous or basal cell) in the past 3 years and is currently receiving treatment for the active cancer
  • Subject who is taking medication known to affect blood pressure
  • Known drug or alcohol dependency within 6 months prior to screening as determined by the investigator
  • Has taken part in a clinical trial using a marketed product, investigational drug or device within 1 month prior to screening.
  • Hypersensitivity to any component of lacidipine and amlodipine
