Study Summary

This trial will test if a new drug can lower blood pressure in people who take multiple medications but still have uncontrolled hypertension.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with uncontrolled and resistant high blood pressure, despite taking 2-5 blood pressure medications. Participants must have a history of hypertension for at least 6 months, an office-based blood pressure reading within certain ranges, and a BMI of ≥18 kg/m2.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness of lorundrostat at two different doses compared to a placebo in lowering blood pressure. Lorundrostat is an aldosterone synthase inhibitor. This Phase 3 study involves patients who are already on multiple anti-hypertensive drugs.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects for lorundrostat aren't listed here, common side effects for this type of medication may include dizziness, headache, fatigue, gastrointestinal issues or electrolyte imbalances.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Change from baseline in AOBP SBP at Week 12 in subjects randomized to lorundrostat Dose 1 with escalation to lorundrostat Dose 2
Change from baseline in automated office BP (AOBP) SBP at Week 12 in subjects randomized to lorundrostat
Secondary outcome measures
Change from baseline in AOBP SBP at Week 12 by obesity status in combined lorundrostat dosages
Change from baseline in AOBP SBP at Week 12 in subjects who did not reach SBP control by Week 6 on lorundrostat Dose 1 and were increased to lorundrostat Dose 2 (within-subjects analysis)
Change from baseline in AOBP SBP at Week 12 in subjects with resistant hypertension in combined lorundrostat dosages
