Effectiveness and Tolerability of Long-Acting Nifedipine Gastrointestinal Therapeutic System in Chronic Kidney Disease With Uncontrolled Hypertension Patients, a Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study (ADRENAL)

July 6, 2021 updated by: Bayer

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension are two closely related common chronic diseases that have serious implications to human health. Hypertension is a major cause for progression of renal disease and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Control of Blood Pressure (BP) to target is now considered to be the main goal in the treatment of patients with CKD.

In clinical practice, it is difficult for CKD patients with hypertension to achieve systolic BP (SBP) or diastolic BP (DBP) goal; oftentimes, calcium channel blocker (CCB) class of drugs, for example, nifedipine gastrointestinal therapeutic system (GITS), is used in such patients. Previous data have demonstrated nifedipine to be having a significant dose-response relationship; that is, nifedipine 60 mg provided better BP reduction than 30 mg. However, there are limited studies that have evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of nifedipine GITS 60 mg in Chinese CKD patients with hypertension. Hereby, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of nifedipine GITS 60 mg treatment in a large cohort of CKD patients with uncontrolled hypertension.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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.

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 to 70 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients who are prescribed 60-mg nifedipine GITS (once per day) and meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled into the study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male and female patients aged 18-70 years
  • Patients diagnosed with CKD (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) >15 mL/min/1.73 m*2) and hypertension without dialysis/replacement therapy
  • Patients with uncontrolled hypertension (office SBP ≥140 mmHg and DBP ≥ 80 mmHg) who have received Renin-Angiotensin System Inhibitors (RASI) treatment or have not received RASI treatment because of any contraindications
  • Patients who haven't received nifedipine GITS 60 mg (once per day) previously
  • Patients for whom the decision to initiate treatment with nifedipine GITS 60 mg was made as per the investigator's routine treatment practice
  • Signed informed consent
  • No participation in an investigational program with interventions outside of routine clinical practice

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have a contraindication to nifedipine GITS according to the approved prescribing information
  • Patients participating in an investigational program with interventions outside of routine clinical practice

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
Change in office systolic blood pressure from baseline to week 12
Time Frame: At week 12
Change in office systolic blood pressure from baseline to week 12
At 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

Change in office diastolic blood pressure from baseline to week 12
Time Frame: At week 12
Change in office diastolic blood pressure from baseline to week 12
At week 12
