  5. BACKGROUND

  6. ACCOMPLISH: A Novel Hypertension Trial Traditional approach to hypertension management: Initiate monotherapy then sequentially add medications to achieve target BP ACCOMPLISH: Initiate single tablet combination therapy in high-risk hypertension Specific combinations may confer target organ protection in addition to their BP-lowering effects

  7. ACCOMPLISH Hypothesis ACCOMPLISH will test a new strategy for the treatment of hypertension – the first outcomes trial to compare initial therapy with two different combinations The combination of benazepril and amlodipine will reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with high-risk hypertension by 15% when compared to the combination of benazepril and HCTZ

  8. Primary Endpoint Cardiovascular Mortality and Morbidity, defined as: Cardiovascular death Non-fatal myocardial infarction Non-fatal stroke Hospitalization for unstable angina Coronary revascularization procedure (PCI or CABG) Resuscitated sudden death Primary Endpoint Jamerson KA et al. Am J Hypertens. 2003;16(part2)193A.

  9. Targeted Population for Recruitment into the ACCOMPLISH Study Men or women age ≥ 55 years SBP ≥ 160 mmHg or currently on antihypertensive therapy Evidence of cardiovascular or renal disease or target organ damage

  10. ACCOMPLISH Patients Were Receiving Significant Medical Management at Baseline 78% of patients on ACEI or ARB 67% of patients on lipid-lowering agents 63% of patients on anti-platelet therapy Mean LDL 101.6 mg/dl

  11. Baseline Traits of the ACCOMPLISH Cohort 50% of patients were obese 60% of patients had Diabetes Mellitus 97% of patients were treated previously for hypertension 74% of patients were treated with ≥ 2 antihypertensive agents Only 37.5% of patients were controlled to <140/90 mmHg

  12. ACCOMPLISH: Design Free add-on antihypertensive agents* Amlodipine 10 +benazepril 40 mg Amlodipine 5 mg +benazepril 40 mg Amlodipine 5 mg +benazepril 20 mg Screening Randomization Benazepril 20 mg + HCTZ 12.5 mg Benazepril 40 mg + HCTZ 12.5 mg Benazepril 40 mg + HCTZ 25 mg Titrated to achieve BP<140/90 mmHg; <130/80 mmHg in patients with diabetes or renal insufficiency Free add-on antihypertensive agents* 14 Days Day 1 Month 1 Month 2 Month 3 Year 5 *Beta blockers; alpha blockers; clonidine; (loop diuretics).

  16. Low Pill Burden in ACCOMPLISH ACEI / HCTZ N=5733 CCB / ACEI N=5713 Study Medication Only Study Medication Only Study + 1 Add-on Study + 1 Add-on Study + ≥ 2 Add-on Study + ≥ 2 Add-on Drug Interruption Drug Interruption Includes patients receiving beta blockers, alpha blockers, clonidine, loop diuretics. The number of patients with free add-on antihypertensive agents only include those patients who has reached dose level 3. At 30 month follow-up

  17. DSMB Oct 17 2007 • Pre-specified efficacy boundary was crossed with 60% of the expected trial information • Executive Committee accepted the recommendation • Last patient last visit was Jan 24, 2008 • Total of 1176 unique patients with events • 95.3% of primary events are adjudicated

  18. Kaplan Meier for Primary Endpoint 20% Risk Reduction ACEI / HCTZ 650 CCB / ACEI 526 Cumulative event rate p = 0 .0 0 0 2 Time to 1st CV morbidity/mortality (days) HR (95% CI): 0.80 (0.72, 0.90) INTERIM RESULTS Mar 08

  19. Primary Endpoint and Components Incidence of adjudicated primary endpoints, based upon cut-off analysis date 3/24/2008 (Intent-to-treat population) Risk Ratio(95%) Composite CV mortality/morbidity Cardiovascular mortality Non-fatal MI Non-fatal stroke Hospitalization for unstable angina Coronary revascularization procedure Resuscitated sudden death 0.80 (0.72–0.90) 0.81 (0.62-1.06) 0.81 (0.63-1.05) 0.87 (0.67-1.13) 0.74 (0.49-1.11) 0.85 (0.74-0.99) 1.75 (0.73-4.17) 2.0 0.5 1.0 Favors CCB / ACEI Favors ACEI / HCTZ INTERIM RESULTS Mar 08

  20. Primary and Other Endpoints Incidence of adjudicated primary endpoints, based upon cut-off analysis date 3/24/2008 (Intent-to-treat population) Risk Ratio(95%) Composite CV mortality/morbidity Primary w/o revascularization Hard CV endpoint(CV death, non-fatal MI, non-fatal stroke) All cause mortality 0.80 (0.72–0.90) 0.79 (0.68–0.92) 0.80 (0.68–0.94) 0.90 (0.75–1.08) Favors CCB / ACEI Favors ACEI / HCTZ 2.0 0.5 1.0 INTERIM RESULTS Mar 08

  21. Summary Single tablet combination therapy was initiated in 11,462 high risk hypertensive patients After mean follow-up of 39 months, The combination of ACEI / CCB was superior to ACEI / diuretic CV morbidity / mortality was reduced by 20% (p=0.0002) Hard CV Endpoint (CV death, stroke and MI) was reduced by 20% (p=0.007)

  22. Summary (cont’d) Prior to study entry, 97% of patients were on antihypertensive medication, 74% receiving > 2 therapies After mean follow up of 30 months, Overall BP control rates increased from 37% to 80% Mean SBP decreased from 145 to <130 mmHg 50% of participants required only one tablet

  23. Conclusions ACCOMPLISH achieved exceptional BP control with combination therapy providing a new option for cardiovascular risk reduction to millions of patients with hypertension. The results of ACCOMPLISH provide compelling evidence for initial combination therapy with ACEI / CCB and challenge current diuretic-based guidelines.
