Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The main objective of this trial is to investigate the influence of metoprolol on exercise induced catecholamine response. It is also a main objective to investigate the possible influence of certain single nukleotide polymorphisms in candidate genes on this alteration in catecholamin response due to metoprolol treatment. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are alterations in blood pressure and heart rate response. ;Primary end point(s): Alteration of exercise induced catecholamine response (epinephrine, norepinephrine) due to treatment with metroprolsuccinate.
