Overview

The Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT) trial compared major outcomes in high risk hypertensive patients randomized to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or calcium channel blocker vs diuretic.

Design

Randomized, double-blind, multi-center clinical trial

Endpoint

Determine whether occurrence of fatal CHD or nonfatal MI is lower for high-risk hypertensive patients treated with newer agents (CCB, ACEI, alpha-blocker) compared with a diuretic

Population

42,418 high-risk hypertensive patients ≥ 55 years

Results

The alpha blocker arm (doxazosin) was dropped early due to futility.
