Statin plus amlodipine for primary aldosteronism
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining a statin (usually for cholesterol) with amlodipine (a blood pressure medication) can better treat primary aldosteronism, a hormonal condition that causes high blood pressure. If you have this condition, this study may offer a new way to manage it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have primary aldosteronism (a condition that makes too much of the hormone aldosterone, raising your blood pressure).
- You cannot be allergic to amlodipine or any statin medicine (like atorvastatin or simvastatin).
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You should not have severe liver or kidney problems.
- You should not have a serious mental illness.

This trial studies whether blocking part of the adrenal blood supply (“adrenal artery ablation”) along with spironolactone can improve hormone-driven high blood pressure caused by primary aldosteronism. It may help people who have confirmed adrenal overactivity and do not want surgery.
This trial looks at whether adding spironolactone to your current blood pressure medicines works better for people with primary aldosteronism (a condition where your adrenal glands make too much aldosterone, raising blood pressure). You may qualify if you have this form of high blood pressure but have declined surgery or don't have an adenoma.
This trial tests a new drug called HRS-1780 for people with primary aldosteronism, a condition that causes high blood pressure. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective in lowering blood pressure and managing the condition.
This trial studies people with high blood pressure caused by a hormone problem called primary aldosteronism. If you qualify, the study may help doctors learn better ways to identify and manage this specific cause of blood pressure elevation.
This trial tests whether a simple steroid-based test can help identify a specific type of high blood pressure called primary aldosteronism. If you have high blood pressure that needs medication, this study may help find a treatable cause.
This trial tests a drug called finerenone for people with a specific cause of high blood pressure (primary aldosteronism). It aims to see if finerenone can help lower blood pressure and improve hormone levels better than current care.
