Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
\<Run-in period\> Use of any antihypertensives, including azilsartan and amlodipine, is prohibited during the run-in period.
\<Treatment period\> Subjects who are considered eligible for participation in the study based on the results of eligibility assessment during the run-in period will be randomized to the azilsartan 20 mg or amlodipine 5 mg group at a ratio of 1:1 according to the following stratification factors; the type of awake-sleep blood pressure variation determined based on the data from ABPM at the start of run-in, complication status (chronic kidney diseases \[CKD\], type 2 diabetes), age, and sex.
Subjects will start treatment with either antihypertensive after examination for the start of treatment (Week 0) and visit the study site every 2 weeks, 5 visits in total, until the end of treatment (Week 8).
Subjects will orally take azilsartan 20 mg or amlodipine 5 mg, according to their group allocation, once daily before or after breakfast in the morning.
