Official title
A Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Baxdrostat in Adult Participants With Primary Aldosteronism
Overview
This is a Phase III, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of baxdrostat versus placebo, on the reduction of Seated Blood Pressure (SBP) and achieving normalization of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) in approximately 250 participants ≥ 18 years of age with Primary Aldosteronism (PA), with or without prior treatment with Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists (MRAs) or potassium-sparing diuretics. Baxdrostat (or placebo) will be administered once daily, up-titrated after 2 weeks based on clinical response and tolerability. The study is planned to be conducted globally in approximately 90 study centres and 12 countries.
Interventions
- Drug Baxdrostat
Baxdrostat tablet administered orally, once daily (QD). - Drug Placebo
Placebo tablet matching baxdrostat, administered orally, once daily (QD).
Primary outcome measures
- Change from baseline in seated Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) at Week 8 [Time frame: At week 8]
- Achieving normalization of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) at week 8. [Time frame: At week 8]
Secondary outcome measures (6)
- Percent change from RWD baseline (Week 44) in Direct Renin Concentration (DRC) at Week 52 [Time frame: At week 52]
- Change from Randomised withdrawal (RWD) baseline (Week 44) in seated Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) at Week 52 [Time frame: At week 52]
- Achieving normalization of the Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) at week 8. [Time frame: At week 8]
- Achieving serum potassium ≥ 3.7 mmol/L without potassium supplementation at Week 8 in participants with serum potassium < 3.7 mmol/L or potassium supplementation at baseline [Time frame: At week 8]
- Achieving 24-hour urine aldosterone < 10 μg at Week 8 in participants with 24-hour urine aldosterone ≥ 10 μg at baseline [Time frame: At week 8]
- Percent change from baseline in 24-hour urine albumin at Week 8 [Time frame: At week 8]
