Study Background ARBs are effective for the treatment of not only hypertension but also stroke, MI, HF, diabetic nephropathy, etc High-dose ARB is more effective than low-dose ARB in the prevention of CVD in patients with diabetic nephropathy or HF. However, it remains to be determined which therapeutic strategy is more effective, high-dose ARB or ARB plus CCB. Ogawa H, et al. Hypertens Res. 2009; 32: 575-580

Statistical analysis ITT principle Primary endpoint: Log-rank test stratified by gender, age, and risk factors (baseline CV disease and type2 DM) HR and 95%CI were calculated by stratified Cox proportional hazards model. Subgroup analysis (predefined)Interaction-P between CV disease (Cerebrovascular disease, Cardiac disease, Vascular disease, Renal dysfunction) andonly type2 DM was estimated. Ogawa H, et al.

Summary • In the OSCAR study, BP was significantly lower in the ARB plus CCB group than in the high-dose ARB group. • There were no significant differences in primary endpoint rate between the high-dose ARB and the ARB plus CCB groups. • In subgroup of patients with history of CV disease, primary composite endpoint was significantly higher in the high-dose ARB group than ARB plus CCB group (P=0.0261). • Conversely, in the subgroup of patients with T2DM but with no other comorbid conditions, the rate of composite primary endpoint was lower in the high-dose ARB group than in the ARB plus CCB group (P=0.1445). • There was a significant treatment-by-subgroup interaction for the primary endpoints for the subgroup between cardiovascular disease and only the presence of diabetes (P = 0.0241).
Conclusion • The OSCAR study, first large clinical trial to investigate the efficacy of high-dose ARB vs. ARB plus CCB in high-risk elderly hypertensive patients, did not show any differences in reducing CV events/non CV death. • ARB plus CCB was superior in reducing CV events/non CV death in subgroup of patients with history of CV disease. • High-dose ARB seemed to prevent CV events/non CVdeath in patients with diabetes alone in spite of the weakness in antihypertensive effect. Further study is needed.
