Efficacy and Safety Profile of a Triple Single-Pill Combination of Valsartan/Amlodipine/Chlorthalidone in Patients with Uncontrolled Hypertension.

PURPOSE: This randomized, double-blind, multicenter Phase III study evaluated the efficacy and safety profile of a single-pill triple combination of valsartan/amlodipine/chlorthalidone (KDF1901, Valdipine Plus) compared with a dual combination of valsartan/amlodipine (KDF1901-R) in patients with essential hypertension. METHODS: Patients (n = 294) with inadequately controlled hypertension after a 4-week run-in phase with valsartan/amlodipine (80/5 mg) were randomized to receive KDF1901 (valsartan/amlodipine/chlorthalidone 160/10/25 mg, n = 147) or KDF1901-R (valsartan/amlodipine 160/10 mg, n = 147) for 8 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was the change in mean sitting systolic blood pressure (MSSBP) from baseline to week 8. Secondary endpoints included changes in mean sitting diastolic blood pressure (MSDBP), BP normalization rates, and response rates. Safety profile outcomes assessed treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), laboratory parameters, and serious adverse events. FINDINGS: At week 8, the KDF1901 group exhibited a significantly greater reduction in MSSBP (-22.8 &#xb1; 1.0 mmHg) compared with the dual therapy group (-16.7 &#xb1; 1.0 mmHg, P < 0.0001). Similarly, the mean MSDBP reduction was significantly greater with KDF1901 (P = 0.0006). BP normalization rates (75.9% vs 54.5%, P < .0001) and response rates (73.8% vs 51.7%, P < 0.0001) were significantly higher in the triple combination group. Overall, the incidence of TEAEs was similar between groups (24.7% vs 21.5%, P = 0.5783), with mild cases of dizziness were most commonly reported. Exploratory ad hoc analyses showed statistically greater changes in sodium, potassium, and uric acid levels with triple therapy, but clinically meaningful extreme electrolyte abnormalities were rare in both groups, and the overall laboratory profile remained acceptable. IMPLICATIONS: This trial reported that the single-pill triple combination KDF1901 significantly improved BP control compared with dual therapy without compromising tolerability. GOV IDENTIFIER: NCT07116863.

Nebivolol treatment improves hypertension-induced endothelial cell dysfunction by reducing TGF-&#x3b2;1-dependent senescence and normalizing mitochondrial indices.

OBJECTIVES: Serum from patients with hypertension (HT) causes endothelial cell (EC) damage, leading to senescence and dysfunctional phenotype. This study investigated whether serum from patients treated with the antihypertensive drugs could normalize EC activity. METHODS: This study involved 71 patients with newly diagnosed HT, who were randomly assigned to one of three groups based on the antihypertensive treatment: amlodipine, nebivolol, or perindopril. Serum samples collected before and 6&#x200a;weeks after treatment were applied to ECs in vitro to assess their angiogenic activity, cellular senescence, mitochondrial metabolism, and oxidative stress. RESULTS: Results showed that exposure of ECs to serum from patients treated for 6&#x200a;weeks significantly altered EC function, with varying effects among the drugs. Serum from nebivolol-treated patients produced the most consistent benefits, reducing EC proliferation and HIF-1&#x3b1; expression, likely due to lower levels of angiogenic factors such as angiopoietin-1, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Additionally, this serum contained reduced levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (E-selectin, P-selectin, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and tumor necrosis factor &#x3b1; (TNF&#x3b1;)) and lower TGF-&#x3b2;1, which are linked to HT-related EC senescence. Nebivolol treatment decreased senescence biomarkers such as SA-&#x3b2;-Gal, 53BP1, and p16, with SA-&#x3b2;-Gal reduction comparable to that of TGF-&#x3b2;1 neutralizing antibodies. Oxidative stress was reduced, indicated by lower oxidized DNA product levels. CONCLUSIONS: Nebivolol was the most effective at reducing the factors, associated with HT induced cellular senescence of endothelium, through reducing TGF-&#x3b2;1.
