Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate antihypertensive efficacy of a combination of Azilsartan medoxomil and Amlodipine besylate, in mild-to-moderate essential hypertensive subjects not adequately controlled by Azilsartan medoxomil monotherapy or Amlodipine besylate monotherapy;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of a combination of Azilsartan medoxomil and Amlodipine besylate, in mild-to-moderate essential hypertensive subjects not adequately controlled by Azilsartan medoxomil monotherapy or Amlodipine besylate monotherapy • To determine the dose-response relationship of Azilsartan medoxomil and Amlodipine besylate monotherapy and Azilsartan medoxomil/ Amlodipine besylate combination therapy in subjects with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension.;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is: • Change from baseline in mean sitting systolic BP (msitSBP) after 8 weeks of treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 8 weeks of treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1) Key secondary efficacy endpoint: • Change from baseline in mean sitting diastolic BP (msitDBP) after 8 weeks of treatment 2) Other secondary efficacy endpoints: • Change from baseline in msitSBP after 4 weeks of treatment • Change from baseline in msitDBP after 4 weeks of treatment • Proportion of subjects who achieve below response criteria: a. Clinic msitSBP <140 mmHg (but, subjects having diabetes mellitus or CVD or CKD with albuminuria (or proteinuria) <130 mmHg) and/or reduction of =20 mmHg from baseline after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. b. Clinic msitDBP <90 mmHg (but, subjects having diabetes mellitus or CVD or CKD with albuminuria (or proteinuria) <80 mmHg) and/or reduction of =10 mmHg from baseline after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment c. (a) and (b);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 4 and 8 weeks of treatment.
