Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (23)

• AUC(0-24): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to Time 24 Hours of TAK-536 (Azilsartan)

  AUC(0-24) is a measure of total plasma exposure to the drug from time 0 to 24 hours post-dose, calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule.

  Pre-dose and at multiple time points (up to 24 hours) post-dose

• Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration of TAK-536 (Azilsartan)

  Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration (actual measurement value) of a drug after administration, obtained directly from the plasma concentration-time curve.

• Number of Participants Who Experienced Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs

  An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (example, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. Treatment emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; or congenital anomaly; or a medically important event.

  Up to 15 Days

Sitting diastolic blood pressure \[DBP\] or systolic blood pressure \[SBP\] is to be in at least the 95th percentile if essential hypertension is present without concurrent hypertensive organ damage and at least the 90th percentile if secondary hypertension is present with concurrent chronic renal disease, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, or hypertensive organ damage).
• The participant is male or female and aged 6 to less than 16 years at the time of consent.
• The participant weighs at least 20 kg during the observation period.
• The participant is capable of taking the tablets provided as study drug.

For participants receiving immunosuppressive therapy, the dose should have been stable at least 30 days before study drug administration.
• A female participant of childbearing potential who is sexually active with a nonsterilized male partner agrees to use routinely adequate contraception from signing of informed consent to within 1 month after the completion of the study and have a negative pregnancy test result during the observation period.

• The participant is diagnosed with malignant hypertension or rapidly progressive hypertension.
• The participant has severe renal dysfunction (eGFR \<30 mL/min/1.73 m\^2), dialysis treatment, renovascular disease affecting both kidneys or a solitary kidney, severe nephrotic syndrome not in remission, or serum albumin \<2.5 g/dL.
• The participant has a history or clinical manifestations of serious cardiovascular, hepatobiliary, gastrointestinal, endocrine (e.g., hyperthyroidism and Cushing's syndrome), hematologic, immunologic, genitourinary, or psychiatric disease; cancer; and/or any conditions that would interfere with the health status of the participant through study participation or would jeopardize study integrity in the opinion of the investigator or subinvestigator.
• The participant has left ventricular outflow tract obstruction affecting hemodynamics due to aortic stenosis, aortic valve disease, or the like or is scheduled to have surgery affecting blood pressure (e.g., repair of arterial anomalies) during the study.
• The participant underwent a surgical procedure with major bleeding within 6 months before the start of the observation period.
• The participant has past or present clinically significant abnormalities on the 12-lead electrocardiogram and is ineligible for the study in the opinion of the investigator or subinvestigator.

• The participant has hyperkalemia exceeding the upper limit of standard value during the observation period.
• The participant has a history of hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus infection at the start of the observation period.
