Study Summary

The main purpose of this study is to assess the serum free cortisol response after ACTH stimulation test at baseline and at Week 8 in participants with uncontrolled hypertension.

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint is individual participant's cortisol levels at each timepoint. Number of participants with normal stimulated serum total cortisol level at baseline are presented here. Characterisation of the serum total cortisol levels before and after ACTH stimulation test. An ACTH stimulation test using 250 μg ACTH was performed at baseline and Week 8 (End of Treatment), with serum cortisol level measured before and after ACTH stimulation test. Normal cortisol levels are defined as at l
