Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of azilsartan medoxomil, once daily (QD), compared to placebo and olmesartan in participants with essential hypertension.
Detailed description
Hypertension affects approximately 50 million individuals in the United States. As the population ages, the prevalence of hypertension will continue to increase if broad and effective preventive measures are not implemented. According to the World Health Organization, hypertension is the most common attributable cause of preventable death in developed nations, as uncontrolled hypertension greatly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and renal failure. Despite the availability of antihypertensive treatments, hypertension remains inadequately controlled; only about one-third of patients continue to maintain control successfully. TAK-491 (azilsartan medoxomil) is an angiotensin II receptor blocker and this study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral azilsartan medoxomil compared to placebo and olmesartan in subjects with essential hypertension. Individuals who want to participate in this study will be required to provide written informed consent. Study participation is anticipated to be about 11 weeks. Multiple procedures will occur at each visit which may include fasting, blood collection, urine collection, vital signs including sitting blood pressure and pulse, body height and weight, physical examinations and electrocardiograms. Outside of the study center, participants will be required to wear an ambulatory blood pressure monitoring device at 24 hour intervals.
Interventions
Azilsartan medoxomil 20 mg, tablets, azilsartan medoxomil 40 mg placebo-matching tablets, azilsartan medoxomil 80 mg placebo-matching tablets and olmesartan 40 mg placebo-matching tablets, orally, for up to 6 weeks.
Olmesartan 40 mg, tablets, azilsartan medoxomil 20 mg placebo-matching tablets, azilsartan medoxomil 40 mg placebo-matching tablets and azilsartan medoxomil 80 mg placebo-matching tablets, orally, once daily for up to 6 weeks.
Azilsartan medoxomil 20 mg placebo-matching tablets, azilsartan medoxomil 40 mg placebo-matching tablets, azilsartan medoxomil 80 mg placebo-matching tablets, and olmesartan 40 mg placebo- matching tablets, orally, once daily for up to 6 weeks.

Change From Baseline in the Trough (22-24-hr) Mean Systolic Blood Pressure Measured by Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring.
The change in trough mean systolic blood pressure measured at week 6 relative to baseline. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring measures blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night. The trough mean is the average of all measurements recorded from 22 to 24 hours after dosing.
Time frame: Baseline and Week 6.
Population: Full analysis set with last observation carried forward.

Percentage of Participants Who Achieve a Clinic Diastolic Blood Pressure Response, Defined as < 90 mm Hg and/or Reduction From Baseline ≥ 10 mm Hg
Percentage of participants who achieve a clinic diastolic blood pressure response measured at week 6, defined as less than 90 mm Hg and/or reduction from baseline of greater than or equal to 10 mm Hg. Diastolic blood pressure is the arithmetic mean of the 3 trough sitting diastolic blood pressure measurements.
Time frame: Baseline and Week 6.
