Brief summary
This study is designed to compare the effects of COREG MR (carvedilol modified release formulation) to atenolol on indices of left ventricular dimensions when added to standardized angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition, and to the effect of ACE inhibition alone. Subjects with LVH (left ventricular hypertrophy) and hypertension will be studied. The primary endpoint will be the change in left ventricular mass index (LVMI) characterized by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) following 12 months of treatment. Secondary endpoints include the change in LV (left ventricular) mass, LV wall thickness, diastolic left ventricular filling parameters, and left ventricular ejection fraction by echocardiographic methods at Treatment Month 12. Composite outcomes and individual event data will also be evaluated by treatment group.

Model-adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure (BP) at Month 12
Systolic and Diastolic BP were measured at Baseline and after 12 months of treatment/Month 12. Change in Baseline was calculated as Month 12 value (or value after 12 months of treatment) minus the Baseline value.
