  Purpose

The investigators want to find out whether a recently introduced combination of two blood pressure lowering agents (olmesartan and amlodipine) has a different blood pressure lowering effect than a single active substance. In addition the investigators want to find out whether there is a difference in the changes in blood pressure over the course of a day depending on the time when the medications are taken (in the morning or at night). Male and female patients over 18 years of age may participate.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Change in ABPM (ambulatory blood pressure measurement) mean daytime systolic values and change in systolic OBPM (office blood pressure measurement). [ Time Frame: after six and after 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    After 6 weeks therapy with a fixed combination of olmesartan and amlodipine compared to monotherapy with candesartan

  • change in systolic OBPM [ Time Frame: after 6 and after 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    After 6 weeks therapy with a fixed combination of olmesartan and amlodipine compared to monotherapy with candesartan: change in systolic OPM.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • change in diastolic OBPM [ Time Frame: after six and after 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    After 6 weeks therapy with a fixed combination of olmesartan and amlodipine compared to monotherapy with candesartan

  • Change in systolic and diastolic ABPM night mean values [ Time Frame: after 6 weeks therapy with fixed combination of olmesartan and amlodipine ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    first ABPM to be performed after 2 weeks wash-out followed by six weeks monotherapy with candesartan. Second ABPM to be performed after six weeks therapy with the fixed combination, given in the morning.

  • change in 24 hr mean values and diastolic day mean value [ Time Frame: after six and after 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Distribution of patients over the four dipper types [ Time Frame: after six and after 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Number of patients achieving target values for OBPM and ABPM [ Time Frame: after six and after 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability [ Time Frame: From screening visit to end of follow-up, up to 20 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 81

Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Olmesartan/Amlodipin fixed combination Drug: Candesartan cilexetil
candesartan 16 mg tablets p. o. for 14 days (morning), then candesartan 32 mg tablets for 28 day (morning)s,
Drug: Olmesartan/Amlodipin
olmesartan/amlodipine 40/5 mg tablets for 14 days (morning), then olmesartan/amlodipine 40/10 mg tablets for 28 days (morning), then olmesartan/amlodipine 40/10 mg tablets for 42 days (evening)
Other Name: Sevikar(r)

Detailed Description:

Investigation of changes in blood pressure after six weeks therapy with a fixed combination of 40 mg olmesartan and 10 mg amlodipine compared to a monotherapy with 32 mg candesartan. Investigation of changes in dipping-profile after a further six weeks of therapy with the fixed combination when time of intake is switched from morning to evening.
