A Multi-Center, Prospective, Observational Study to Evaluate the Therapeutic Effectiveness and Safety of an Olmesartan/Amlodipine Plus Rosuvastatin Combination Treatment in Patients with Concomitant Hypertension and Dyslipidemia.

This study assessed the therapeutic effectiveness of a single-pill combination (SPC) of olmesartan/amlodipine plus rosuvastatin for blood pressure (BP) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia. Adult patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia who were decided to be treated with the study drug were eligible. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients who achieved BP, LDL-C and both BP and LDL-C treatment goals at weeks 24-48. Secondary endpoints were assessed at weeks 24-48 and included changes in BP and LDL-C levels from baseline; the proportion of patients who achieved treatment goals who were initially classified as uncontrolled at baseline; changes and percent changes in lipid parameters; changes in both BP and LDL-C levels among patients who reached treatment goals who were followed for more than 24 weeks; and the overall safety profile. A total of 5476 patients were enrolled, and 4411 patients comprised the effectiveness evaluation set. The proportions of patients who reached the treatment goals for BP, LDL-C levels, and both BP and LDL-C levels were 67.93% [95% confidence interval (CI) 66.52-69.32], 80.19% [95% CI 78.85-81.49], and 58.07% [95% CI 56.43-59.7], respectively. Secondary endpoints showed statistically significant changes. Overall, the treatment was well tolerated. The treatment of patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia with the olmesartan/amlodipine plus rosuvastatin SPC was associated with significant decreases in SBP/DBP and LDL-C levels, and a high proportion of patients achieved the BP and LDL-C treatment goals. The finding of this study is worthwhile in that this study evaluated the effectiveness and safety in a broad patient population representative of those seen in everyday clinical practice.
