In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Bisoprolol and Metoprolol for Hypertension. Completed, enrolled 186 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a multicentre, randomized, open-label parallel trial to demonstrate the superiority and/or non-inferiority of bisoprolol on metoprolol succinate sustained-release (SR) tablet in subjects with mild to moderate primary hypertension.

Timeline
Interventions
Subjects will receive bisoprolol fumarate (Concor®) at a dose of 5 milligram (mg) once daily orally as sustained release (SR) tablets for a period of 4 weeks. The dose of bisoprolol will be escalated to 7.5 mg orally once daily for next 4 weeks (Weeks 4 to 8) and to 10 mg orally once daily for the next 4 weeks (Weeks 8 to 12), if clinic systolic blood pressure (SBP) was greater than or equal to (\>=) 140 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was \>=90 mmHg measured every 4 weeks.
Subjects will receive metoprolol succinate (Betaloc SR) at a dose of 47.5 mg once daily orally as SR tablets for a period of 4 weeks. The dose of metoprolol will be escalated to 71.25 mg orally once daily for next 4 weeks (Weeks 4 to 8) and to 95 mg orally once daily for the next 4 weeks (Weeks 8 to 12) if clinic SBP was \>=140 mmHg and/or DBP was \>=90 mmHg measured every 4 weeks.
