Run by National Medical Research Center for Therapy and Preventive Medicine · NCT07683585 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial tests two blood pressure treatment combos after a stent procedure in people with hypertension and coronary disease to see which regimen better controls blood pressure and improves symptoms.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 50–70 with hypertension and coronary artery disease who had elective PCI with stenting and require dual antihypertensive therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients who do not respond to dual therapy or who experience adverse reactions or contraindications to ARB, thiazide diuretic, or amlodipine may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This prospective randomized, open-label study compares two dual antihypertensive regimens in adults with hypertension and coronary artery disease who recently underwent elective PCI with coronary stenting. Participants are randomized to receive either an ARB plus a thiazide diuretic or an ARB plus a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, and are followed after discharge at 2, 4, and 12 weeks via in-person or telemedicine visits. Primary endpoint is the percentage reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, with secondary endpoints including angina frequency, exercise capacity, quality of life, need for treatment intensification, and healthcare utilization. Safety and tolerability are monitored through the follow-up period. The study uses standard post-PCI care alongside dual antihypertensive therapy to assess comparative effectiveness.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could clarify which dual regimen provides better blood pressure control and symptom relief after PCI, potentially guiding more effective outpatient management.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies have explored dual regimens post-PCI but this direct ARB + thiazide versus ARB + amlodipine comparison in this specific post-PCI population is relatively novel.
