Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in mean sitting diastolic blood pressure at week 6

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in mean sitting systolic blood pressure at week 6

  2. Change from week 2 in mean sitting diastolic and systolic blood pressure at week 6

  3. Diastolic response rate at week 6. Patients were considered responders if they had a mean sitting diastolic blood pressure of < 90 mmHg or a >= 10 mm Hg decrease compared to baseline.

  4. Change from baseline in 24 hour diastolic and systolic blood pressure at week 6

  5. Change from baseline in 24 hour diastolic and systolic blood pressure at peak which is defined as the lowest hourly blood pressure mean and the average of the hourly means from 4 to 6 hours post dose at week 6
