First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Sep 01, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This clinical trial is testing a new medication called HGP2102 for people with essential hypertension, or high blood pressure. The study compares HGP2102 to a control drug to see how well it lowers blood pressure over a full 24-hour period. Participants are adults with high blood pressure who meet specific blood pressure criteria. The goal is to determine if HGP2102 is safe and effective for managing this common condition.
