Study Summary

The main objective will be to evaluate the dose-response of ACT-132577 (aprocitentan) on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in participants with grade 1 or 2 essential hypertension. Secondary objectives will be to evaluate the dose-response of ACT-132577 on: systolic blood pressure (SBP); control and response rate of blood pressure; 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a once daily oral regimen of 4 doses of ACT-132577.

Primary Outcome

Participants had their blood pressure measured at the study site using the BpTRU® device. The BpTRU® is an automatic unattended office blood pressure measurement device. Six measurements, at rest, per participant per visit were performed. The mean of the last 5 measurements was used for the analysis. The absolute change in mean trough sitting diastolic blood pressure (SiDBP) measured by from baseline (i.e., at randomization) to week 8 (Day 56). A negative change indicates a decrease in the dias
