Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Efficacy parameters Primary efficacy parameter Compare the mean change in trough SeDBP from baseline to Visit 6 between two groups (BP values measured at Visit 4 is taken as baseline value) Safety parameters Incidence of adverse events, clinically relevant laboratory abnormalities, abnormal physical examination findings and ECG findings experienced before and after treatment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Efficacy parameters Secondary efficacy parameters -Compare the mean change in trough SeSBP from Visit 4 to Visit 6 between two groups; -Compare the mean change in trough SeDBP and trough SeSBP from Visit 4 to Visit 5 between two groups; -Evaluate the percentage of responders in the two groups at Visit 5 and Visit 6. Responder is defined as: -whose BP decreases to SeDBP10 mmHg cumulatively from Visit 4 to the time of evaluation, or -whose mean decrease of trough SeSBP is>20 mmHg cumulatively from Visit 4 to the time of evaluation. | — |
