Folic Acid and Intensive Antihypertensive Therapy for Cerebrovascular and Cardiovascular Events Prevention Among Patients With Hypertension and Cerebral Small Vascular Diseases (FAITH)----A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled, Open-label, 2x2 Factorial, Blinded End-point Trial
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Amlodipine folic acid 5.8mg+intensive antihypertensive therapy, Amlodipine folic acid 5.8mg+standard antihypertensive therapy, and 2 other interventions for Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases and Stroke. Not yet recruiting, targeting 15,000 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary objectives of this trial are: 1. Efficacy evaluation of amlodipine folic acid tablets: To assess the effects of amlodipine folic acid tablets 5.8 mg (5 mg amlodipine + 0.8 mg folic acid)versus amlodipine tablets 5 mg in preventing all-cause stroke in cerebral small vascular disease (CSVD) patients with hypertension and elevated homocysteine (Hcy) level. 2. Intensive Antihypertensive Therapy: To assess the effect of intensive antihypertensive therapy (SBP\<130 mmHg) versus standard antihypertensive therapy (SBP 130-\<140 mmHg) in reducing risk of combined cardio-cerebrovascular events in CSVD patients with hypertension and elevated Hcy level, using two basic anti-hypertensive drugs, amlodipine tablets 5 mg or amlodipine folic acid tablets 5.8 mg.

Interventions
Amlodipine folic acid tablet 5.8mg, taken daily, in the morning after waking. To achieve target blood pressure(SBP\<130mmHg), this study will provide, if needed, concurrent antihypertensive medications. Patients will be asked to discontinue all prior concurrent medications. Recommended treatment options are described below: 1. Add candesartan 4mg; 2. Add indapamide 2.5mg; 3. Increase dose of candesartan to 8mg; 4. Increase dose of amlodipine to 7.5mg-10mg.
