Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study assessed the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of LCZ696 in severe hypertensive Japanese patients

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Summaries for treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events and death were provided by the following actual treatment regimen (actual treatment patients received) in addition to all patients: LCZ696 200mg, 400mg, 400mg+other hypertensive medications.

Summaries for others than above were provided by the following treatment regimen (determined by the maximal treatment patients received) in addition to all patients: LCZ696 200mg, 400mg, 400mg+other hypertensive medications.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

LCZ696 200 mg

All participants were started on LCZ696 200 mg once daily on day 1. Participants who achieved mean sitting diastolic blood pressure (msDBP) of \< 100 mmHg and mean sitting systolic blood pressure (msSBP) of \< 160 mmHg at week 2 or a msDBP \< 90 mmHg and msSBP \< 140 mmHg at or after week 4 and for the duration of the study continued at 200 mg LCZ696 once daily.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

LCZ696

Intervention Type DRUG

LCZ696 200 mg tablet once daily

LCZ696 400 mg

All participants were started on LCZ696 200 mg once daily on day 1. For participants who did not achieve mean sitting diastolic blood pressure (msDBP) of \< 100 mmHg and mean sitting systolic blood pressure (msSBP) of \< 160 mmHg at week 2 or a msDBP \< 90 mmHg and msSBP \< 140 mmHg at or after week 4, and did not have any signs of safety concerns, the LCZ696 dose was increased to 400 mg once daily.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

LCZ696

Intervention Type DRUG

2 tablets of LCZ696 200 mg once daily titrated up from 1 tablet of 200 mg once daily

LCZ696 400 mg plus other hypertension (HTN) medications

All participants were started on LCZ696 200 mg once daily on day 1. For participants who received LCZ696 400 mg and did not achieve msDBP \< 90 mmHg and msSBP \< 140 mmHg at or after week 4 and had no signs of safety concerns, another class of antihypertensive drugs (other than Angiotensin II receptor blockers or Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor (ACEi) could be added, or the dose of concomitant antihypertensive drugs could be increased as per the package insert. Participants who received LCZ696 400 mg once daily did not change their dose for the remainder of the study.
