In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This is a single-center, open-label, randomized clinical trial conducted at the Instituto Dante Pazzanese de Cardiologia, São Paulo, Brazil. The study evaluates a simplified treatment strategy for patients with apparent resistant hypertension, comparing fixed triple combination therapy (perindopril, indapamide, and amlodipine) with usual care using multiple separate antihypertensive drugs. The primary objective is to compare 24-hour blood pressure control as measured by ABPM at 12 weeks between the two treatment strategies. Enrollment began on July 15, 2023, and this study was registered retrospectively.
