Hypertension | Drug: Azilsartan Medoxomil |
The drug being tested in this study is called azilsartan medoxomil (Edarbi®). Azilsartan medoxomil is being tested to treat people who have hypertension. This study looks at the clinic systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP) in obese participants who were prescribed azilsartan medoxomil by physicians.
The study enrolled 1945 patients. All participants were asked to take azilsartan medoxomil as prescribed by their physician according to local SmPC.
This multi-center trial was conducted in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan. The overall duration of study for observation was approximately 6 months. Participants made multiple visits to the clinics as assigned by each physician according to their routine practice, in every 3 months.

- Change From Baseline in Clinic Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) at Month 6 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Month 6 ]The change in clinic sitting SBP measured at Month 6 relative to baseline.
- Change From Baseline in Clinic Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) at Month 6 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Month 6 ]The change in clinic sitting DBP measured at Month 6 relative to baseline.
- Percentage of Participants With Response at Month 6 [ Time Frame: Month 6 ]Response was defined as a decrease of SBP ≥20 mm Hg or a decrease of DBP ≥10 mm Hg.
- Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Target Blood Pressure (BP) SBP<140 mm Hg and DBP<90 mm Hg [ Time Frame: Month 6 ]
- Change From Baseline in Clinic Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) in Subgroups of Participants at Month 6 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Month 6 ]The change in clinic sitting SBP measured at Month 6 relative to baseline. Subgroups included overweight, obesity I (basic metabolic rate [BMI] 30-34.9), class II (BMI 35-39.9) and class III (BMI ≥ 40), impaired glucose tolerance, normal glucose metabolism, diabetes mellitus (Yes/No), metabolic syndrome, neither diabetes mellitus (DM) nor metabolic syndrome.
- Change From Baseline in Clinic Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) in Subgroups of Participants at Month 6 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Month 6 ]The change in clinic sitting DBP measured at Month 6 relative to baseline. Subgroups included overweight, obesity I (basic metabolic rate [BMI] 30-34.9), class II (BMI 35-39.9) and class III (BMI ≥ 40), impaired glucose tolerance, normal glucose metabolism, diabetes mellitus (Yes/No), metabolic syndrome, neither diabetes mellitus nor metabolic syndrome.
- Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Target Blood Pressure (BP) in Subgroups of Participants at Month 6 [ Time Frame: Month 6 ]Target BP was SBP<140 mm Hg and DBP<90 mm Hg. Subgroups included BMI, overweight, Obesity I (BMI 30-34.9), class II (BMI 35-39.9) and class III (BMI ≥ 40), impaired glucose tolerance (Yes/No), metabolic syndrome (Yes/No) and diabetes mellitus (Yes/No).
