Why the study?

Despite trials demonstrating the benefit of low-dose triple single pill combinations for hypertension, no such products are available for prescribers.

Does a low-dose triple single pill combination (telmisartan/amlodipine/indapamide) improve blood pressure control in patients with hypertension?

Comparison

GMRx2 vs placebo and each of the three possible dual combinations

Key result

The GMRx2 clinical development program is conducting two pivotal phase III trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel low-dose triple single pill combination for the treatment of hypertension.

Overview

Ongoing GMRx2 trials may expand options if positive; leaves open confirmation of efficacy versus current hypertension therapies.

Structured PICO

Does a low-dose triple single pill combination (telmisartan/amlodipine/indapamide) improve blood pressure control in patients with hypertension?

P
Population
People with hypertension who are untreated or receiving monotherapy
I
Intervention
GMRx2 (telmisartan/amlodipine/indapamide single pill combination in three strengths: 10/1.25/0.625 mg, 20/2.5/1.25 mg, and 40/5/2.5 mg)
C
Comparator
Placebo, and each of the three possible dual combinations
O
Outcome
Efficacy and safety (blood pressure control)surrogate

A novel low-dose triple single-pill combination of telmisartan, amlodipine, and indapamide is currently in pivotal trials to address the unmet need for early, effective hypertension management.

Limitations

  • Trials are ongoing and final efficacy/safety results are not yet available
  • Market access in Europe may be delayed due to regulatory requirements for additional studies beyond bioequivalence

Cite This Study

Rodgers et al. (2024) studied Hypertension. GMRx2 (telmisartan/amlodipine/indapamide) vs. Dual combinations (telmisartan/amlodipine, telmisartan/indapamide, amlodipine/indapamide) or Placebo was evaluated on Difference in change in home mean SBP from randomization to week 12 (ACT) or week 4 (PCT). The GMRx2 clinical development program is conducting two pivotal phase III trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel low-dose triple single pill combination for the treatment of hypertension.
