A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Baxdrostat in Participants With Uncontrolled Hypertension on Two or More Medications Including Participants With Resistant Hypertension (BaxAsia)

April 20, 2026 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Double-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Multicentre Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Baxdrostat in Participants With Uncontrolled Hypertension on Two or More Medications Including Participants With Resistant Hypertension

The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy and safety of baxdrostat in participants with uHTN or rHTN. The main objective is to compare the difference in SBP change from baseline at Week 12 of treatment between participants receiving 2 mg baxdrostat or 1 mg baxdrostat tablets and participants receiving placebo tablets.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase III, multicentre, randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effect of 1 or 2 mg baxdrostat versus placebo, administered QD orally, on the reduction of SBP in approximately 300 participants aged ≥ 18 years with HTN (≥ 140 mmHg at Screening; ≥ 135 mmHg at randomisation) despite a stable regimen of 2 antihypertensive agents at baseline, one of which is a diuretic (uHTN); or ≥ 3 antihypertensive agents at baseline, one of which is a diuretic (rHTN).
