This study is conducted to investigate the effect of the oral renin inhibitor SPP635 on blood pressure in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.
Renin-Angiotensin system blockade is a well established target for treatment of high blood pressure. Blocking the system at the initial step, however, is a rather new concept that could only be implemented very recently through the availability of novel, oral, renin inhibitors. This study investigates the safety and efficacy of a novel oral renin inhibitor, SPP635.
