307B - Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics Study of TOPROL-XL® in Hypertensive Pediatric Subjects

January 14, 2020 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics Study of TOPROL-XL® (Metoprolol Succinate) Extended-release Tablets (Metoprolol CR/XL) in Hypertensive Pediatric Subjects: A Multicenter, Open-Label Extension of Protocol 307A

This was a 52-week, multicenter, open-label study to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of TOPROL-XL (metoprolol succinate) extended-release tablets (metoprolol CR/XL) in hypertensive pediatric subjects. The study population included school age children (age 6 to 12 years < Tanner Stage 3) and adolescents (> 12 years old or > Tanner Stage 3 to 16 years old) of both genders. Because response to some therapies in adult hypertension appears to be different in black and non-black populations, the recruitment will have a mixture of black and non-black subjects. Pharmacokinetic measurements were performed on a subset of patients. Thirty subjects (15 subjects each in the 6 to 12 year age group and the 13 to 16 year age group) had a series of blood samples drawn. All subjects had a trough plasma level taken 24 hours after the last dose of open-label metoprolol CR/XL (Visit 18) with the exception of those subjects who completed Protocol 307B (16 week open-label treatment).

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female between the ages of 6 and 16 years inclusive at the time of screening.
  • Have a negative urine pregnancy test, if female of childbearing potential. Have a signed informed consent by a parent or a legal guardian and an assent form signed by the subject (if applicable).
  • Have hypertension that is either:

    1. Have successfully completed Protocol 307A, or, or
