Trial Outcomes & Findings for Vascular Effects of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonism in Kidney Disease (NCT NCT02497300)

NCT ID: NCT02497300

Last Updated: 2022-12-21

Results Overview

The study was not able to meet its recruitment goal, and participant numbers were too low to test the intended primary outcome of "Difference in percent change of ultrasound-guided flow-mediated dilation between 6 weeks of spironolactone vs. 6 weeks of amiloride." The change in 24hr ABPM systolic BP (Baseline - 6 week) is reported here.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 weeks

Population: Some participants had missing or incomplete 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

The study was not able to meet its recruitment goal, and participant numbers were too low to test the intended primary outcome of "Difference in percent change of ultrasound-guided flow-mediated dilation between 6 weeks of spironolactone vs. 6 weeks of amiloride." The change in 24hr ABPM systolic BP (Baseline - 6 week) is reported here.
