Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Trough Seated Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) [Change from Baseline to Week 8]
Change from baseline in mean seated trough cuff Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) at Week 8 as measured by an Omron device. The primary efficacy analysis was based on the Intent to Treat (ITT) population using a Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) approach.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Trough Seated Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) [Change from Baseline to Week 8]
Change from baseline in mean seated trough cuff Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) at Week 8 as measured by an Omron device. The secondary efficacy analysis was based on the Intent to Treat (ITT) population using a Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) approach.
