Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of SPC1001 and Monotherapy in Patients With Essential Hypertension

This clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, parallel design, placebo and active drug comparison, and multicenter clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of investigational drugs after 8 weeks of administration.

Subjects who meet the selection and exclusion criteria should take a placebo for 2 weeks during the run-in period and run a lifestyle improvement program in parallel.

However, if you are already taking antihypertensive drugs at the time of screening, you should stop taking your existing antihypertensive drugs for at least 4 weeks from before the run-in period to the time of randomization to avoid affecting the clinical trial results.

Subjects who meet the final selection and exclusion criteria at the end of the run-in period are randomly assigned 1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1 to each administration group, receive a prescription for clinical trial drugs, and administer for 8 weeks in a double-blind manner.

Encourage the subjects to continuously perform the lifestyle improvement program for 8 weeks during the administration of the clinical investigational drug and visit the testing institution at 4 and 8 weeks during the 8-week trial period, excluding randomized visits, to check the efficacy and safety.
