Brief Summary

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

Hypertension (HTN) is a leading cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite existing therapies, patients with HTN still face substantial risks, due to pre-existing and ongoing end-organ damage due, in part, to inadequate blood pressure (BP) control. SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are recommended for both type-2 diabetes and heart failure to reduce morbidity and mortality. SGLT2i reduce BP and might also improve outcomes for HTN by reducing end-organ damage through diverse other actions. However, confirmation that SGLT2i are clinically useful for the management of HTN is required to change guidelines and clinical practice.
