Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1)Change in sitting BP (early morning home BP) between baseline values and values at the end of administration of Esaxerenone. 2)Amount and rate of change in left ventricular mass index (LVMI) between baseline values and values at the end of administration of Esaxerenone. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1)Change in sitting BP (early morning home BP) between baseline and 12 weeks after the start of Esaxerenone administration. 2)Change in sitting BP (home BP before bedtime) between baseline values and values at the end of administration of Esaxerenone. 3)Proportion of patients achieving the target of sitting BP reduction. 4)Left Ventricular Mass (LVM) and Rate of change in left ventricular mass index (LVMI) between baseline and 12 weeks after the start of Esaxerenone administration. 5)Change in Left Ventricular posterior Wall Thickness (LVPWT), Relative Wall Thickness (RWT), the ratio between the E-wave velocity and A-wave velocity of the pulsed-wave Doppler mitral flow image (E/A), the ratio between E-wave velocity and the average early diastolic velocity of the lateral and septum at the mitral annulus level (E/e'), E-wave height, mitral annulus early diastolic velocity (e'), a', tricuspid regurgitation velocity (TRV), left atrial volume index (LAVI), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVDd), deceleration time (DT), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), vascular function test (baPWV or CAVI), myocardial strain, myocardial strain rate, left ventricular volume, left atrial volume,double product (DP), triple-product (TP), coefficient of variation of R-R Interval (CVR-R), NT-proBNP, CRP, PAC, PRA, and urinary (Na, K, albumin, creatinine, protein) between baseline and 12 weeks after the start of Esaxerenone administration. | — |
