Study for weight-related hormone signals in people with high blood pressure
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This early-phase study looks at how the body’s “fight-or-flight” signals may be involved in weight gain (obesity) and high blood pressure. It may help researchers understand the biology and guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re between 18 and 65 years old
- You have high blood pressure (at least two readings over 130/85, or you take BP medicine)
- You have obesity, meaning your BMI is 30 or higher
- You can safely participate and sign the informed consent form

Other trials that look related to this one.
This Phase 1 study tests how a medication that affects the body’s angiotensin system (angiotensin-(1-7)) changes metabolism in adults with obesity, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure. It may help researchers understand whether this approach can improve blood sugar/insulin function and related body changes.
This Phase 1 study looks at a treatment aimed at reducing “inflammation patterns” that are common in obesity and insulin resistance. If you meet specific health and lab criteria, you may be asked to visit a research lab and provide blood samples to see how the treatment affects your body.
This early-stage study tests a new way to help control high blood pressure that is linked to obesity. It may help people whose blood pressure is high based on a 24-hour blood pressure monitor.
This early-stage trial tests a new oral medication (HS-10522) to see if it is safe and how the body handles it. It includes both healthy people and those with mild high blood pressure, and may help lower blood pressure in the future.
This study tests whether a natural protein called angiotensin-(1-7) can improve heart health in people with obesity and high blood pressure. It may help researchers find new ways to treat these conditions together.
This study looks at new ways to measure heart structure and heart pumping function in people with high blood pressure. The results may help doctors better understand heart changes over time and improve care.
