New combo pill aims to tame stubborn high blood pressure
NCT ID NCT06671392
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This Phase 3 trial tested whether adding a third drug (DWC202314) to a two-drug combination pill works better for people with essential hypertension that isn't controlled by the two-drug pill alone. 198 participants took either the two-drug or three-drug combination once daily. The study measured changes in sitting systolic blood pressure over time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- combination pill (DWC202405/DWC202313 plus DWC202314)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a more effective once-daily pill for people whose high blood pressure is not well controlled with current treatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is a completed Phase 3 trial, but results are not yet published. The new combination may not prove significantly better than existing options, and side effects are possible.

Inclusion Criteria: * Average systolic blood pressure (MSSBP) and average diastolic blood pressure (MSDBP) measured at the time of screening meet the following criteria (a) If antihypertensive drugs are being administered: 140 mmHg ≤ MSSBP \< 180 mmHg and MSDBP \< 110 mmHg However, the criteria of 130 mmHg ≤ MSSBP \< 180 mmHg and MSDBP \< 110 mmHg are applied to patients with the following diseases. Exclusion Criteria: * If the blood pressure measured at the time of screening and randomization is MSSBP ≥ 180 mmHg or MSDBP ≥ 110 mmHg * Those whose blood pressure differences measured on both arms at the time of screening are MSSBP ≥ 20 mmHg and MSDBP ≥ 10 mmHg
