What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing a new medication called CIN-107 to see if it can help lower blood pressure in patients whose high blood pressure isn't controlled by current treatments and who also have kidney disease. The medication likely works by helping blood flow more easily or reducing body fluid.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial requires that you continue taking an ACE inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker at the maximum tolerated dose. However, you must be willing to stop taking a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist or a potassium-sparing diuretic if you are currently using them.

Is CIN-107 safe for humans?

There is no specific safety data available for CIN-107, but similar treatments like candesartan cilexetil, used for high blood pressure, have been shown to be safe and well-tolerated in humans. ^{1 2 3 4 5}

How does the drug CIN-107 differ from other treatments for high blood pressure in chronic kidney disease?

CIN-107 is unique because it is being specifically studied for its effects on high blood pressure in patients with chronic kidney disease, whereas other treatments like cilnidipine, a calcium channel blocker, are known for their reno-protective actions and blood pressure reduction but are not specifically tailored for this condition. Additionally, CIN-107's mechanism of action or specific benefits compared to existing treatments are not detailed in the provided research, making it a novel option under investigation. ^{1 4 6 7 8}

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for adults with uncontrolled high blood pressure and mild-to-severe chronic kidney disease who are already taking the maximum tolerated dose of ACEi or ARB medications. People with type 1 diabetes, recent major heart issues, certain unstable conditions, extreme lab values, a BMI over 50, severe renal artery stenosis, known allergies to CIN-107 or similar drugs, recent immunotherapy for CKD, positive HIV/hepatitis tests or excessive alcohol intake cannot participate.

Inclusion Criteria

Your average seated blood pressure is higher than 140 mmHg.

You have high levels of protein in your urine.

I am on the highest dose I can handle of ACEi or ARB medication.

Exclusion Criteria

Your blood pressure was really high when measured while sitting down.

You are allergic to CIN-107 or similar drugs.

You have HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C.

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

• CIN-107
• Placebo

Trial Overview The study is testing the effectiveness and safety of a medication called CIN-107 in treating high blood pressure among patients with chronic kidney disease. Participants will either receive CIN-107 or a placebo (a substance with no therapeutic effect) to compare outcomes between the two groups.

How Is the Trial Designed?

Group I: Low dose CIN-107 Experimental Treatment 1 Intervention

Patients will take oral tablets of CIN-107 for 26 weeks. The dose strength may be titrated within 6 weeks.

Group II: High dose CIN-107 Experimental Treatment 1 Intervention

Patients will take oral tablets of CIN-107 for 26 weeks. The dose strength may be titrated within 6 weeks.

Group III: Placebo Placebo Group 1 Intervention

Patients will take oral tablets of Placebo for 26 weeks. The dose strength may be titrated within 6 weeks.
