Brief Summary

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

The creole study is a A Multi-centre, multinational, randomised single-blind, parallel group, three-armed superiority trial which is aimed at comparing the efficacy of three "free" combinations of two anti-hypertensive agents on 24 hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure (ASBP) in black African hypertensive patients.

Detailed Description

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

The CREOLE trial will be performed at ten investigational sites in six countries in Sub-Saharan Africa which include Cameroun, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, South Africa and Uganda. Subjects will be randomised to one of three treatments which are Perindopril plus Amlodipine or Perindopril plus Hydrochlorothiazide or Amlodipine plus Hydrochlorothiazide.Patients will commence treatment at a starting dose of Amlodipine plus Hydrochlorothiazide 5/12.5 mg or Amlodipine plus Perindopril 5/4 mg or Perindopril/Hydrochlorothiazide 4/12.5 mg. These doses will increase at the two months visit, to Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide 10/25 mg or AmlodipinePperindopril 10/8mg or Perindopril/Hydrochlorothiazide 8/25 mg.

The patients will have ambulatory blood pressure monitoring at randomization and at six months and office blood pressure measurements at randomization and at two-month, 4-month and six-month visits.The overall aim is to discover the best combination of front-line anti-hypertensive medications for black patients residing in sub-Saharan Africa.
