About this trial

An estimated 120 million people have high blood pressure (hypertension) in the US, of which approximately 10% have resistant hypertension. This study aims to enroll patients who continue to have hypertension while being treated with at least two medications. The study will follow patients for approximately 3 months and collect real-world information on changes in their health to identify an ideal patient profile that would benefit from 4th-line antihypertensive therapies, including, but not limited to, FDA-approved aprocitentan, renal denervation, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, etc.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Signed and dated informed consent form

Ability to answer survey questions and to report blood pressure reading monthly

Male and female participants; 18 years or older

Treated with at least 2 antihypertensive therapies of different pharmacological classes for at least 4 weeks before the screening visit

Disqualifiers

Confirmed severe hypertension (grade 3) defined as SiSBP greater than or equal to 180 mmHg and/or Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure (SiDBP) greater than or equal to 110 mmHg

Clinically significant unstable cardiac disease at screening or in the past in the opinion of the investigator

Heart failure NYHA functional class III and IV or NT-proBNP > 500 pg/mL

Severe renal insufficiency or eGFR < 15 mL/min/1.73m2

Trial population

The study population will include 100 patients with inadequately controlled blood pressure despite the use of two therapies.
