TROPHY: Background • Framingham, MRFIT, and other studies indicate that prehypertension is a strong predictor of excessive cardiovascular risk • These data illustrate the need to identify and potentially treat patients with prehypertension • Hypertension (HTN) is a progressive and self-accelerating condition • Vascular abnormalities occur long before the onset of clinical disease Julius S et al. N Engl J Med. 2006;354:1685-97.
TROPHY: Study objectives • TROPHY evaluated 2 years of treatment with candesartan in individuals with prehypertension* • Primary objective: • Determine if the incidence of HTN can be reduced for up to 2 years after discontinuation of active treatment • Secondary objective: • Evaluate the incidence of HTN during 2 years of treatment with candesartan or placebo Julius S et al. N Engl J Med. 2006;354:1685-97. *Average BP 130–139/≤89 mm Hg; or ≤139/85–89 mm Hg

TROPHY: Summary • Efficacy • Candesartan significantly delayed new-onset HTN vs placebo: • Relative risk reduction: 66% (year 2); 16% (year 4) • Absolute reduction of new-onset HTN: 26.8% (year 2); 9.8% (year 4) • New-onset HTN at 2 years: 13.6% vs 40.4% • Safety • Candesartan was safe and well tolerated • Serious AE rates: 3.5% (candesartan) vs 5.9% (placebo) Julius S et al. N Engl J Med. 2006;354:1685-97.
TROPHY: Implications • Vascular abnormalities occur long before the onset of clinical disease • Aggressive BP-lowering with candesartan can reduce the incidence of HTN in prehypertensive patients at risk for CV disease Julius S et al. N Engl J Med. 2006;354:1685-97.
