NCT06713785

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to assess precision dosing of amlodipine to deliver reductions in blood pressure in patients with primary hypertension and inadequate BP control by up-titration of amlodipine in 1mg increments

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The difference in daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure between baseline ABPM and post-titration ABPM on a personalized dose of amlodipine.

    pressure between baseline ABPM and post-titration ABPM on a personalized dose of amlodipine.

    End of study 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Other clinically significant blood pressure measures which related to difference in measured blood pressure between baseline and EOS, especially AOBP clinic BP readings and home BP readings

    End of study 1 year

  • Feasibility of collecting data using a digital diary

    End of study 1 year

  • Collect patient reported outcome data including satisfaction with medication regime using digital diary

    Collect patient reported outcome data including satisfaction with medication regime using digital diary

  • Patient feedback on the use of digital diary

    End of study 1 year

  • Insight into number of patients achieving target BP of <135 and 85 at EOS

    End of study 1 year

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • \- Age ≥18 years to 75 years
  • Able to give consent
  • Possession of a smart phone
  • Confirmed diagnosis of hypertension by NICE/BIHS criteria on either 24h ABPM or repeated home measures of blood pressure, at any time.
  • Previous experience of amlodipine and unwanted effects of the drug
  • Willing to be re-challenged with amlodipine (if off treatment) or to try a higher dose than the 5mg currently treated with.
  • Sub-optimal blood pressure control defined as daytime ABPM average systolic blood pressure of 135mmHg or greater, and/or daytime ABPM average diastolic blood pressure of 85mmHg or greater.
  • Stable antihypertensive medication (ie. no dose adjustments, new Rx or stopped Rx in last 4 weeks for CCB, 8 weeks for diuretics, ACEi, ARB).
  • Patients may be taking other blood pressure lowering medication, but these must be kept stable during assessment of eligibility and for the duration of the trial (except where essential to maintain patient safety).

You may not qualify if:

  • \- Unable to consent.
  • Severe adverse reaction to amlodipine making re-challenge or dose increase unwise.
  • Myocardial infarction, Acute Coronary Syndrome, stroke or Transient Ischaemic Attack in the 6 months prior to screening.
  • Heart failure classed as NYHA class III or IV.
  • Renal impairment with eGFR \< 30ml/minute.
  • Participation in another clinical trial, where the patient has received IMP in the last 3 months, except for MRC Aim-Hy with established medications and where patients can be screened after 6 weeks from final visit.
  • Pregnant or lactating or female of childbearing potential not using adequate contraception
