NCT02088450
The Syst-Eur Trial is a concerted action of the European Community's Medical and Health Research Programme. The trial is carried out in consultation with the World Health Organization, the International Society of Hypertension, the European Society of Hypertension and the World Hypertension League. Syst-Eur is a multicentre trial designed by the European Working Party on High Blood Pressure in the Elderly (EWPHE), to test the hypothesis that antihypertensive treatment of elderly patients with isolated systolic hypertension results in a significant change in stroke morbidity and mortality. Secondary endpoints include cardiovascular events, such as myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure. To be eligible patients must be at least 60 years old and have a systolic blood pressure averaging 160-219 mmHg with a diastolic pressure less than 95 mmHg. Patients must give their informed consent and be free of major cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular diseases at entry. The patients are randomized to active treatment or placebo. Active treatment consists of nitrendipine (10-40 mg/day), combined with enalapril (5-20 mg/day) and hydrochlorothiazide (12.5-25 mg/day), as necessary. The patients of the control group receive matching placebos. The drugs (or matching placebos) are stepwise titrated and combined in order to reduce systolic blood pressure by 20 mmHg at least to a level below 150 mmHg. Morbidity and mortality are monitored to enable an intention-to-treat and per-protocol comparison of the outcome in the 2 treatment groups.
NCT02893995
This is an open-label, multicenter, parallel, randomized (1:1 Slow Dose Titration Group; Rapid Dose Titration Group), two-group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of slow and rapid dose titration regimens of subcutaneous Remodulin infusion in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The study will include about 50 subjects at up to 10 clinical trial centers in China. The treatment phase of the study will last approximately 16 weeks. Subjects who complete all required assessments will also be eligible to enter a long-term open-label, extension study (CVT-CV-004).
