Irbesartan Effects on Endothelial Dysfunction in Hypertensive Type II Diabetic Patients Comparing Atenolol (IREDIS)

October 24, 2007 updated by: Sanofi
To show that Irbesartan improves endothelial dysfunction and the procoagulant state which are thought to be the possible mechanisms, inducing a generalized vasculopathy associated with microalbuminuria and vascular events in type II diabetic hypertensive patients

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Evaluation of the effect of irbesartan on nitric oxide (NO), which has key role in the endothelial dysfunction and the development of pressure vasomotor response, compared to standard therapy (atenolol)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Evaluation of the effect of irbesartan on chronic inflammatory process and tendency for procoagulation, associated with endothelial dysfunction, compared to atenolol.
