Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with mild to moderate hypertension, either not on antihypertensives or on up to two agents, and who meet specific SBP ranges and health criteria.

Probably not a fit

Participants with uncontrolled secondary hypertension, severe kidney impairment, or high potassium may not benefit and could be excluded from the trial.

What this trial studies

This Phase 2 interventional trial is designed to test different single-dose levels of ALN-AGT01 RVR, with and without prior zilebesiran exposure, in adults with mild to moderate hypertension. It has two parts: Part A examines dose ranges in participants on stable or no antihypertensive therapy, and Part B repeats a single-dose evaluation after stopping most prior antihypertensives. The study also includes placebo and zilebesiran as comparators to understand pharmacodynamics, efficacy on blood pressure, and safety. Enrollment is limited to adults within specified blood pressure ranges and without certain kidney or electrolyte conditions. The trial is conducted at sites in California, Florida, and Georgia under Alnylam Pharmaceuticals with Roche collaboration.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience better blood pressure responses with a well-tolerated single-dose regimen.

How similar studies have gone: Previous RNAi-based approaches have shown potential in blood pressure reduction; this study explores a novel combination and patient population.
