Study summary

Evaluation of the clinical outcomes of Benidipine initiated by physician's preference in patients with hypertension and/or angina pectoris (chronic coronary syndrome) presenting to cardiology outpatient clinics in Türkiye.

This is a prospective, multicenter, observational registry and is strictly non-interventional. The decision to prescribe Benidipine is made by the treating physician as part of routine medical care, independent of and prior to study enrollment. No study-specific interventions, treatment assignments, or additional diagnostic procedures are mandated by the protocol. The study solely observes and records real-world clinical outcomes without any investigator interference in the standard management of the patient.

Read the detailed description
  • Benidipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker used in the treatment of hypertension and angina pectoris. There are currently no large-scale observational studies in these patient groups in Türkiye.
  • There is no record of benidipine in clinicaltrials.gov, which is an important database especially for the registration of drug and interventional studies.
  • Therefore, it will be extremely important to include this study in clinicaltrials.gov and to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Benidipine in patients with hypertensive and/or angina pectoris in 7 geographical regions of Türkiye.
  • The study does not involve any assignment of a therapeutic agent or a medical strategy to a participant that deviates from routine clinical practice. The decision to prescribe Benidipine is made by the treating physician prior to, and independently of, the decision to include the patient in the registry.
  • All diagnostic and therapeutic procedures follow the current institutional standards and clinical guidelines. No additional diagnostic or monitoring procedures are mandated by the protocol; all data collected are those generated during the course of routine medical follow-up.
  • The investigator does not influence the choice of treatment, the dosage, or the duration of the therapy. The registry serves solely to observe and record the outcomes of real-world clinical decisions and the natural course of the treatment provided as part of standard medical care.

Study population

Patients presenting to cardiology outpatient clinics in Turkey with hypertension and/or angina pectoris (chronic coronary syndrome)

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

  • Those who signed the written form

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with secondary hypertension
  • Emergency hypertensive patients
  • Having to take other medications during the study that may affect blood pressure
  • Allergic to DHP calcium antagonists
  • Evidence of decompensated congestive heart failure, unstable angina or severe arrhythmia
  • Severe renal or hepatic dysfunction

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

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.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Interventions

  • DrugBenidipine Hydrochloride

    Participants receive oral benidipine hydrochloride (4 mg or 8 mg tablets) once daily for a duration of 12 weeks, with dosage adjustments permitted based on clinical investigator judgment to achieve blood pressure targets in a real-world observational setting.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Systolic Blood Pressure at Month 3

    Change in systolic blood pressure (SBP), measured in mmHg, from baseline to Month 3. The change is calculated as the SBP value at Month 3 minus the baseline SBP value (Month 3 SBP - Baseline SBP). Positive values indicate an increase in systolic blood pressure, whereas negative values indicate a decrease in systolic blood pressure.

    Time frame: Baseline and Month 3

  2. Change From Baseline in Diastolic Blood Pressure at Month 3

    Change in diastolic blood pressure (DBP), measured in mmHg, from baseline to Month 3. The change is calculated as the DBP value at Month 3 minus the baseline DBP value (Month 3 DBP - Baseline DBP). Positive values indicate an increase in diastolic blood pressure, whereas negative values indicate a decrease in diastolic blood pressure.

    Time frame: Baseline and Month 3

  3. Change From Baseline in Seattle Angina Questionnaire Score at Month 3

    The Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) is a disease-specific questionnaire used to assess health status in patients with coronary artery disease. The SAQ score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better angina-related health status. Change from baseline to Month 3 is calculated as the Month 3 score minus the baseline score. Positive values indicate an increase in the SAQ score, whereas negative values indicate a decrease in the SAQ score.

    Time frame: Baseline and Month 3

Secondary outcomes

  1. Treatment Persistence and Patient Compliance at Month 3

    Evaluation of the percentage of participants who continued their prescribed Benidipine treatment without interruption and adhered to the clinical follow-up protocol over a 3-month period. Persistence is defined as the continued use of the medication from baseline to the final visit.

    Time frame: Baseline and Month 3

Results

Posted Nov 4, 2026
Limitations and caveats
Unlike a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), this was an observational study. The study utilized physician preference for treatment assignment. The outcome data time frame was 3 months. Both the physicians and the patients knew they were using Benidipine (Open-Label).

Participant flow

The study utilized a prospective, observational, "real-life" recruitment strategy to capture a representative sample of the Turkish cardiovascular patient population. Total Recruitment Goal: 1659 patients. Data were gathered from 45 centers across all seven geographical regions of Turkey, ensuring geographical and lifestyle diversity.

Ran from Mar 2025 to primary completion in Jan 2026, 10 months.

Results were first posted in Nov 2026, 10 months after primary completion.

Of 345 non-industry observational studies under Hypertension, half reached primary completion within 44 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 17 and three quarters within 111. This study's 10 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 426 studies reached it within 38 months; a quarter within 17 and three quarters within 96.

Completion moved once since we started tracking on Sep 25, 2026: Jun 2026 → Jan 2026, on Nov 4, 2026.

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.
