Groups2
Group 2 names the comparator: placebo.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Candesartan | Participants receiving candesartan given orally once a day in a stepwise manner. Participants were initiated on 8 mg candesartan. The dose was increased in 2 week increments to 16 mg and 32 mg, as tolerated. The highest achievable dose was the Maximal Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the participant received this dose for the remaining duration of the study (12 months total). | 0 | 38 | OG000 |
| Group 2 | Placebo | Participants receiving a placebo to match candesartan once a day orally for 12 months. | 1 | 39 | OG001 |
