January 12, 2017 updated by: Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany

A Study on the Efficacy of Bisoprolol and Its Influence on Selected Biochemical Parameters in Filipino Hypertensive Patients With Diabetes

The aim of this 12-week, multicenter, interventional, prospective, open-label and single-arm study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 5 milligram per day (mg/day) and 10 mg/day bisoprolol in Filipino hypertensive subjects with diabetes as monotherapy or as an add-on therapy.

Study Overview

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
EXPERIMENTAL: Bisoprolol
Drug: Bisoprolol
Bisoprolol will be administered at an initial dose of 5 milligram (mg) once daily for 2 weeks. If the blood pressure would be greater than or equal to 130/80 mmHg after 2 weeks, then dose will be adjusted to 10 mg once daily. Total duration of study treatment will be 12 weeks.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline in Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure (BP) at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
The change in diastolic and systolic BP at Week 12 was calculated as diastolic and systolic BP at Week 12 minus diastolic and systolic BP at baseline, respectively.
Baseline, Week 12
Percentage of Participants With Controlled BP
Time Frame: Week 12
Controlled BP was defined as BP less than 130/80 mmHg.
Week 12
Percentage of Participants With Response to Study Drug
Time Frame: Week 12
Response to study drug was defined as lowering of systolic BP by at least 10 mmHg from baseline.
Week 12
Mean Change From Baseline in Heart Rate at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
The change in heart rate at Week 12 was calculated as the heart rate at Week 12 minus heart rate at baseline.
Baseline, Week 12
Percentage of Participants With Decrease in Heart Rate by at Least 10 Bpm at Week 12
Time Frame: Week 12
Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Increased Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) at Week 12
Time Frame: Week 12
HbA1c represents the percentage of glycosylated hemoglobin. Percentage of participants with increased HbA1c (greater than 0.5% from baseline) at Week 12 was reported.
Week 12
Mean Change From Baseline in HbA1c at Week 12

Percentage of Participants With Increased Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) at Week 12
Time Frame: Week 12
Percentage of participants with increased FBS (greater than 16 milligram per deciliter [mg/dL] from baseline) at Week 12 was reported.
Week 12
Mean Change From Baseline in Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) Level at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
The change in FBS level at Week 12 was calculated as FBS level at Week 12 minus FBS level at baseline.
Baseline, Week 12
Mean Change From Baseline in Total Cholesterol, Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Cholesterol, High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol and Triglyceride Level at Week 12
