Measure
Olmesartan+Hydrochlorothiazide,if Needed+Amlodipine, if Needed
Olemesartan 20 mg to start. Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg and then 25 mg was added, if necessary. If blood pressure goal was still not achieved, amlodipine 5 mg and then 10 mg were added, if needed. Thus, the maximum combination was olmesartan 20mg + hydrochlorothiazide 25mg + amlodipine 10mg.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to ≤20 weeks

Population: 691 = the full analysis set (FAS). FAS consists of all participants who received trial medication and who had data from at least one post-baseline visit with regard to the primary efficacy parameter, i.e., both the systolic and the diastolic blood pressure (BP) had to be measured. N is reduced for each treatment as subjects attain BP goals.

For non-diabetic participants the target seated blood pressure goals were: Systolic - ≤130 mm Hg; Diastolic - ≤85 mm Hg. For diabetic participants the target seated blood pressure goals were: Systolic - \<130 mm Hg; Diastolic - \<80 mm Hg.

n=691 Participants
Olmesartan (OLM) 20 mg to start for 4 weeks. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5 mg is added, if necessary, for 4 additional weeks. Hydrochlorothiazide is doubled (25 mg), if necessary, for 4 additional weeks. If blood pressure goals were still not achieved, amlodipine (AML) 5 mg was added to the olmesartan and hydroclorothiazide for an additional 4 weeks. Finally, the amplodine was doubled (10 mg), if needed, for the final 4 weeks of treatment. Thus, the maximum combination was olmesartan 20mg + hydrochlorothiazide 25mg + amlodipine 10mg. The subject's participation in the study was concluded as soon as blood pressure goals were met.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to ≤20 weeks

Population: 691 = the full analysis set (FAS). FAS consists of all participants who received trial medication and who had data from at least one post-baseline visit with regard to the primary efficacy parameter, i.e., both the systolic and the diastolic blood pressure (BP) had to be measured. N is reduced for each treatment as subjects attain BP goals.

Normalized blood pressure is defined as a mean sitting systolic blood (sBP) pressure at trough of \<140 mmHg and mean sitting diastolic blood pressure (dBP)of \<90 mmHg for non-diabetic patients or a mean sitting sBP at trough of \<130 mmHg and mean sitting dBP \<80 mmHg for diabetic patients.
