Efficacy and Safety of TAK-491 and Chlorthalidone in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Hypertension |
A Phase 3, Double-Blind, Randomized, Efficacy and Safety Study of the TAK 491 Plus Chlorthalidone Fixed-Dose Combination Compared With TAK-491 and Hydrochlorothiazide Coadministration Therapy in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Essential Hypertension |
The purpose of this study is to compare the antihypertensive effect of chlorthalidone vs hydrochlorothiazide when each is used with TAK-491 in subjects with moderate to severe essential hypertension. |
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 agents, hypertension remains inadequately controlled; only about one-third of patients continue to maintain control successfully.
Although most antihypertensive agents are effective at the appropriate dose, the majority have side effects that limit their use. As a class, angiotensin II receptor blockers generally are considered more tolerable than other classes of antihypertensive agents. TAK-491 is an angiotensin II receptor blocker being evaluated by Takeda to treat essential hypertension.
Treatments for essential hypertension commonly include use of a thiazide-type diuretic, either alone or as part of combination treatment. Although chlorthalidone was commonly prescribed in the past, its use has widely been replaced with hydrochlorothiazide, presumably due to a lack of available combination products containing chlorthalidone, the assumption that hydrochlorothiazide and chlorthalidone have similar antihypertensive effects and cardiovascular benefits, and the perception that chlorthalidone use is associated with a greater frequency of hypokalemia. However, the frequency of hypokalemia with chlorthalidone use is relatively low in the dose range of 12.5 to 25 mg and these doses have been shown to be associated with potent blood pressure reduction. Several long-term outcomes trials have shown that blood pressure reductions associated with chlorthalidone treatment reduce risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Most hypertensive patients require two or more agents to achieve target blood pressure and diuretics are commonly used in combination with other antihypertensive agents. This trial is designed to compare chlorthalidone and hydrochlorothiazide when coadministered with TAK-491.
Subjects in this study will receive either chlorthalidone or hydrochlorothiazide in combination with TAK-491. Total commitment time for this study is about 13 weeks. Subjects will be required to wear a blood pressure monitor for three 24 hours periods during the study. |

- Has hypokalemia or hyperkalemia (defined as serum potassium outside of the normal reference range of the central laboratory).
- Has an alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase level of greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal, active liver disease, or jaundice.
- Has any other known serious disease or condition that would compromise safety, might affect life expectancy, or make it difficult to successfully manage and follow the subject according to the protocol.
- Has known hypersensitivity to angiotensin II receptor blockers or thiazide-type diuretics or other sulfonamide-derived compounds.
- Has been randomized in a previous TAK-491 study.
- Is currently participating in another investigational study or has participated in an investigational study within 30 days prior to Randomization.
- Has a history of drug abuse or a history of alcohol abuse within the past 2 years.
