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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Reduction In Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) After 18 Weeks of Treatment From BaselineBaseline, Week 18Baseline was defined as the latest SBP under monotherapy.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) After 18 Weeks of TreatmentBaseline, Week 18Baseline was defined as the latest DBP before study treatment administration.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects With Controlled Blood PressureBaseline up to Week 18
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Heart Rate (HR) After 18 Weeks of TreatmentBaseline, Week 18Baseline was defined as the latest HR before study treatment administration
SecondaryNumber of Subjects With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, AEs Leading to Discontinuation and AEs Leading to DeathBaseline up to Day 127 (end of trial)
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment emergent AEs was AEs that started or worsened in severity on or after the date of first dose of IMP until the end of the study. AEs leading to death and discontinued were also presented.
