Effect of Ambulatory BP Monitoring on the CliniCal coUrse and RenAl ouTcomE of CKD (ACCURATE)

June 3, 2019 updated by: Kook-Hwan Oh, Seoul National University Hospital

Effect of Ambulatory BP Monitoring on the CliniCal coUrse and RenAl ouTcomE of Chronic Kidney Disease

Control of blood pressure (BP) is the first thing to do in the management of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although guidelines suggest the optimal blood pressure level, it is hard to assess BP correctly during the office visit. Often there is a discrepancy between office BP and out-of-office BP, including home BP and ambulatory BP. Recent study reported that as many as 34% of Korean CKD patients had masked hypertension, which means high BP by ambulatory BP monitoring but normal BP by conventional office BP measurement.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of ambulatory BP-guided BP management on the clinical outcome of CKD, compared to the conventional management using office BP.

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

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.

Detailed Description

We hypothesized that management of blood pressure using ambulatory BP monitoring would obtain more optimal BP control and thereby would influence positively on renal progression and CV outcomes.

In detail, when the eligibility criteria is met, all the subjects will undergo both ambulatory BP and office BP measurement at baseline.

After randomization, ARB (fimasartan) will be administered to drug-naive subjects or will replace the other RAS blockers in subjects with current uses. Dosing of fimasartan will be adjusted or additional drugs of other classes will be added sequentially over 3 months (titration phase).

At 3 months, ABPM will be performed in ABPM group to evaluate the adequacy of blood pressure control and dosing will be adjusted according to the ABPM results (target BP: daytime BP < 135/85 mm Hg). This adjustment will be assessed at 6 months by ABPM once again.

For subjects in office BP group, conventional care will be provided according to current guidelines (target BP < 140/90 mm Hg).

At 18 months, ABPM will be performed in all the subjects and outcome measures will be assessed.

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.
