A Study to Investigate the Effect of Baxdrostat on Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Participants With Resistant Hypertension
Recruiting
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and the effect of 2 mg Baxdrostat vs. placebo, administered QD orally, on the reduction of SBP, measured by average 24-hour ABPM in 212 participants with rHTN (defined as seated SBP ≥ 140 mmHg at Screening and mean ambulatory SBP ≥ 130 mmHg at baseline, despite a stable regimen of ≥ 3 antihypertensive agents, one of which is a diuretic).
