Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of azilsartan medoxomil in individuals with essential hypertension.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Azilsartan medoxomil with or without add-on chlorthalidone
  • Drug: Azilsartan medoxomil with or without add-on hydrochlorothiazide
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Hypertension affects approximately 50 million individuals in the United States. As the population ages, the prevalence of hypertension will continue to increase if broad and effective preventive measures are not implemented. According to the World Health Organization, hypertension is the most common attributable cause of preventable death in developed nations, as uncontrolled hypertension greatly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and renal failure. Despite the availability of antihypertensive treatments, hypertension remains inadequately controlled; only about one-third of patients continue to maintain control successfully.

Takeda Global Research and Development is developing TAK-491 (azilsartan medoxomil) for the treatment of essential hypertension. This study is being conducted to demonstrate the long-term safety and tolerability of azilsartan medoxomil in individuals with essential hypertension.

Study participation is anticipated to be approximately 1 year and 1.5 months, and participants will be required to return to the clinic for 10 study visits.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Participants Reporting One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events From Day 1 Through End of the Study - Cohort 1. [56 weeks.]

      Treatment-emergent adverse events are defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product reported from first dose of study drug through 14 days after the last dose of study drug, or if a serious adverse event, within 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

    2. Number of Participants Reporting One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events From Day 1 Through End of the Study - Cohort 2. [56 weeks.]

    Adverse Events

    Time Frame Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) defined as any AEs, regardless of relationship to study drug, that occur after the first dose of study drug and within 14 days after last dose, or if an SAE, within 30 days after the last dose of study drug.
