NCT01461499

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of a direct renin inhibitor (DRI), aliskiren, on the urinary albumin excretion in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes under strict blood pressure control with angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Reduction in Albuminuria

    Change in the urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) from the baseline

    baseline and 24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change in the Urinary Angiotensinogen Level

    baseline and 24 weeks

  • Change in the Plasma Renin Activity

    baseline and 24 weeks

  • Change in the Serum Insulin Level

    baseline and 24 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Direct renin inhibitor

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Drug: Aliskiren

Angiotensin receptor blockers

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Drug: any angiotensin receptor blockers

Interventions

The patient will start taking one a daily 150 mg/day of aliskiren. In case blood pressure doesn't reach the target (SBP/DBP \< 130/80 mmHg), higher dose of aliskiren will be given.In case the blood pressure doesn't achieve the target, another anti-hypertensive drug other than RAS inhibitors (ARB or ACE-inhibitor) or potassium-retaining diuretics will be added from the minimum effective dose.

Direct renin inhibitor

The patient will start taking one a standard dose of an ARB in Japan. In case blood pressure doesn't reach the target (SBP/DBP \< 130/80 mmHg), higher dose of the ARB will be given. In case the blood pressure doesn't achieve the target, another anti-hypertensive drug other than RAS inhibitors (DRI, another ARB or ACE-inhibitor) or potassium-retaining diuretics will be added from the minimum effective dose.

Angiotensin receptor blockers

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Segment: outpatients
  • Hypertension: taking an anti-hypertensive treatment or indicating mean sitting SBP/DBP more than130/80 mmHg
  • Type 2 diabetes: diagnosed by ADA criteria or under an anti-diabetic drug treatment
  • Microalbuminuria: 10 \< and \< 300 mg/gCr

  • Type 1 diabetes
  • Patients whose investigator regards as difficult to comply with study protocol in reference to the package insert of aliskiren
  • Patients who have history of operation in gastrointestinal tract surgery, and anamnestic or concurrent gastrointestinal disorders, which may interfere with drug absorption
  • Serum potassium \> 5.6 mEq/L (hyperkalemia)
  • Urinary microalbumin \< 10 or \> 300 mg/gCr
  • Patients who participated in another clinical study within three months
