Registered outcomes7

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Mean Trough Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure (SiDBP)Baseline and Week 8
Sitting diastolic blood pressure was measured by automated sphygmomanometer pre-dose on Day 1 (baseline) and at 24 ± 2 hours after the last study drug administration at Week 8. The difference between the baseline and Week 8 assessments was calculated and summarized by treatment arm.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Who Experience ≥1 Adverse Event (AE)up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to 10 weeks)
An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the product, was also an AE. The percentage of participants who experienced at least 1 AE during the 10-week treatment and follow-up period were summarized by study drug received.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Who Experience ≥1 Drug-related AEup to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to 10 weeks)
An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the product, was also an AE. Percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 AE that was reported as possibly, probably, or definitely related to the study drug by the investigator during the 10-week treatment and follow-up period were summarized by study drug received.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Who Experience ≥1 Serious Adverse Event (SAE)up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to 10 weeks)
An SAE is any AE occurring at any dose or during any use of Sponsor's product that does the following: results in death; is life threatening; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; is a cancer; is associated with an overdose; is another important medical event. The percentage of participants who experienced at least 1 SAE during the 10-week treatment and follow-up period were summarized by study drug received.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Who Experience ≥1 Drug-related SAEup to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to 10 weeks)
An SAE is any AE occurring at any dose or during any use of Sponsor's product that does the following: results in death; is life threatening; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; is a cancer; is associated with an overdose; is another important medical event. Percentage of participants that experienced at least 1 SAE that was reported as possibly, probably, or definitely related to the study drug by the investigator during the 10-week treatment and follow-up period were summarized by study drug received
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Who Had Study Drug Stopped Due to an AEup to 8 weeks
An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the product, was also an AE. The percentage of participants who had study drug stopped during the 8-week treatment period due to an AE regardless of whether or not they completed the study was summarized by treatment arm
SecondaryChange in Mean Trough Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure (SiSBP)Baseline and Week 8
Sitting systolic blood pressure was measured by automated sphygmomanometer pre-dose on Day 1 (baseline) and at 24 ± 2 hours after the last study drug administration at Week 8. The difference between the baseline and Week 8 assessments was calculated and summarized by treatment arm.
