Systemic hypertension remains one of the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States and throughout the world. Baxdrostat (CIN-107), a new drug developed by Roche is a selective aldosterone synthase inhibitor that is being evaluated as one of the potential treatments for hypertension, especially in patients with drug treatment-resistant hypertension. An increased level of aldosterone is associated with inflammation, systemic hypertension, and organ fibrosis, contributing to adverse cardiovascular events. A phase 2 trial, BrigHTN, showed promising results in demonstrating the efficacy of baxdrostat, where The HALO (efficacy and safety of baxdrostat in patients with uncontrolled hypertension) trial did not demonstrate any blood pressure-lowering benefit of baxdrostat when compared with the placebo. Several additional studies are now underway to evaluate the effectiveness of baxdrostat as an anti-hypertensive agent.
系统性高血压仍然是美国乃至全世界发病和死亡的主要原因之一。巴多司他(CIN-107)是罗氏公司研发的一种新药,是一种选择性醛固酮合酶抑制剂,正作为高血压的潜在治疗方法之一进行评估,尤其是对药物治疗抵抗性高血压患者。醛固酮水平升高与炎症、系统性高血压和器官纤维化有关,会导致不良心血管事件。一项2期试验BrigHTN在证明巴多司他的疗效方面显示出有希望的结果,而HALO(巴多司他在未控制高血压患者中的疗效和安全性)试验与安慰剂相比未显示出巴多司他有任何降压益处。目前正在进行几项额外研究,以评估巴多司他作为抗高血压药物的有效性。
