The Blood Pressure and Metabolic Effects of Nebivolol in Hypertensive Patients With Impaired Glucose Tolerance or Impaired Fasting Glucose

A Phase 4 interventional study of Nebivolol with concomitant losartan or lisinopril and HCTZ with concomitant losartan or lisinopril in Hypertension, sponsored by Forest Laboratories. Completed at 88 sites in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 80 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-02-26.

Study summary

This study is being done to see if the blood pressure and metabolic effects of an approved drug nebivolol is comparable to that of another approved drug hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) and placebo in hypertensive patients.

Read the detailed description

This study is double blind (neither you nor the physician will know when you are receiving placebo, which is an inactive compound such as a sugar pill, or active study drugs nebivolol or hydrochlorothiazide).

All participants will also receive lisinopril, an angiotensin converting enzyme, or losartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker. All medications are approved and marketed for the treatment of hypertension.This study is being conducted in about 500 patients at approximately 80 research centers in the United States.

The study consists of approximately 9 study visits over a period of 5 months. During these visits, patients will undergo routine health exams and some special laboratory tests such as an oral glucose tolerance test.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female, ambulatory outpatients 18-80 years old at screening.
  • Have a history of hypertension and taking up to 2 medications for high blood pressure.
  • Qualifying laboratory results confirming impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance
  • Vision and hearing (hearing aid permissible) sufficient for compliance with questionnaire completion

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have respiratory, liver or cardiovascular disease
  • Presence of coronary artery disease requiring treatment with a beat blocker, calcium channel blocker or nitrates
  • Use of niacin or antidiabetic drugs (oral or injectable) within 6 months before study entry
  • Have a history of to nebivolol, other beta-blockers, hydrochlorothiazide, or other sulfonamide-derived drugs.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from May 2008 to primary completion in Jul 2010, 25 months.

Results were first posted in Feb 2020, 9 years 7 months after primary completion.

Of 35 industry-sponsored phase 4 interventional studies under Hypertension, half reached primary completion within 22 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 16 and three quarters within 31. This study's 25 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 161 studies reached it within 31 months; a quarter within 16 and three quarters within 52.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Feb 26, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
