  2. Disclosure Information Hisao Ogawa, MD, PhD Effect of High-dose Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB) Monotherapy versus ARB plus Calcium Channel Blocker Combination on Cardiovascular Events in Japanese Elderly High-risk Hypertensive Patients Financial Disclosures: Grant support for OSCAR from Japan Heart Foundation (Japan) Grant support from Astellas, AstraZeneca, Bayer, Boehringer Ingelheim, Daiichi-Sankyo, Eisai, Kowa, Kyowa Hakko Kirin, MSD, Novartis, Pfizer, Sanofi-Aventis, Schering-Plough, and Takeda, for the past 5 years. No other potential conflict of interest relevant to this study was reported.

  3. 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

  4. OSCAR Study OSCAR Study compared high-dose ARB vs. ARB plus CCB in the prevention of cardiovascular events in high-risk Japanese elderly hypertensive patients Multicenter, active-controlled, two-arm, parallel group comparison using PROBE method Enrolment from June 2005 to May 2007 with 3yrs. follow-up Conducted at 134 institutions in Japan Ogawa H, et al.

Study Design High-dose ARB group Other drugs** Registration/ randomization Olmesartan (40 mg) Screening Step 1 Olmesartan (20 mg) 3 years Step 2 Run-in treatment Olmesartan (20 mg) Calcium channel blocker* Other drugs** ARB plus CCB group * Azelnidipine or Amlodipine. **Other than ARBs, ACEIs, and CCBs.

Inclusion Criteria Outpatients aged 65-84 years Olmesartan 20 mg/day monotherapy with SBP ≥140 mmHg and/or DBP ≥90 mmHg At least one of the following CV risk factors: Cerebrovascular disease Cardiac disease Vascular disease Renal dysfuntion Type 2 DM Ogawa H, et al. Hypertens Res. 2009; 32: 575-580

  7. Primary Endpoints Composite of : Fatal and nonfatal CV events Cerebrovascular disease Coronary artery disease HF Other arteriosclerotic diseases Diabetic microvascular diseases Renal dysfunction Non-CV death Ogawa H, et al. Hypertens Res. 2009; 32: 575-580

  8. Secondary Endpoints Incidence of each CV event Blood pressure (SBP, DBP) change Serious AEs other than primary endpoints Ogawa H, et al. Hypertens Res. 2009; 32: 575-580

  9. 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 Treatment and Pts with CV disease (Cerebrovascular disease, Cardiac disease, Vascular disease, Renal dysfunction) and Pts without CV disease (only type2 DM) was estimated.

  17. 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 CV disease, primary endpoint rate was significantly higher in the high-dose ARB group than ARB plus CCB group (P=0.0261). • Conversely, in the subgroup of patients without CV disease (only with T2DM), the rate of composite primary endpoint tended to be 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 with and without CV disease (only T2DM) (P = 0.0241).

  18. Conclusion • The OSCAR study is the first large clinical trial to investigate the effect of high-dose ARB vs. ARB plus CCB in high-risk elderly hypertensive patients. • We did not observe any differences in reducing CV events/non CV death between the groups. • The OSCAR study suggest that the relative effect of the two therapies depends on the presence of CV disease or T2DM.
