NCT ID NCT04840342

Summary

This study is testing whether a medication chosen based on a specific gene works better than a standard blood pressure drug for Black patients with high blood pressure. About 300 participants with a particular genetic marker will take either the gene-targeted drug or the standard medication for 12 weeks. Researchers will measure which drug does a better job of lowering blood pressure around the clock and protecting the kidneys.
