E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Key Secondary Objective: To demonstrate superiority of an LCZ696 regimen compared to an olmesartan regimen, as measured by change from baseline in mean Central Pulse Pressure (CPP) after 12 weeks of treatment. |
Obiettivo Secondario Principale: dimostrare la superiorità di un regime di trattamento con LCZ696 rispetto ad un regime di trattamento con olmesartan, misurata tramite la variazione rispetto al basale della pressione differenziale centrale (Central Pulse Pressure – CPP) dopo 12 settimane di terapia. |

PHARMACOGENETIC: Vers:original Date:2012/07/02 Title:A randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multicenter, 52-week study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an LCZ696 regimen on arterial stiffness through assessment of central blood pressure in elderly patients with essential hypertension Objectives:n.a.

FARMACOGENETICA: Vers:original Data:2012/07/02 Titolo:Studio multicentrico, randomizzato, in doppio cieco, verso controllo attivo, della durata di 52 settimane per valutare la sicurezza e l’efficacia di un regime di trattamento con LCZ696 sulla rigidità arteriosa tramite la valutazione della pressione arteriosa centrale in pazienti anziani affetti da ipertensione essenziale. Obiettivi:Vi informiamo che, anche se il protocollo non prevede un sottostudio formalmente definito (ovvero strutturato con un protocollo specifico) ma una indagine complementare opzionale, la stessa viene classificata come sottostudio e quindi formalizzata nell’apposita sezione del CTA Form. Di seguito il dettaglio: • Indagine di farmacogenetica, a cui parteciperanno tutti i centri italiani coinvolti nello studio. L’eventuale non accettazione di tale sottostudio da parte del Comitato Etico e/o da parte del paziente non comprometterà in alcun modo la partecipazione allo studio principale.
