Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of cholecalciferol supplementation on blood pressure control and clinical and subclinical organ damage in patients with essential hypertension, stable drug therapy, and documented vitamin D deficiency;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the influence of vitamin D receptor (VDR) allelic variants on pharmacological response to oral cholecalciferol therapy;Primary end point(s): - Comparative evaluation between the two groups of overall drugs consumption for maintenance of blood pressure control during the study - A composite endopoint linked to the evaluation of organ damage(considered reached after achieving at least one secondary endpoint);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Twelve-months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Left ventricular massreduction =7 g/m2.7 - Pulse wave velocity reduction = 0.9 m/s - Albuminuria reduction = 45 mg/24h - Reduction in circulating levels of atrial natriuretic peptide =600 fmol/ml;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Twelve months
