Strict blood pressure (BP) control as well as medication with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors is essential to reduce and prevent the progression of albuminuria. However, effective BP control is particularly difficult to achieve in patients with diabetes mellitus and target BP levels are seldom achieved with standard doses of RAS inhibitors. Although calcium channel blockers are frequently used in combination with RAS inhibitors, the GUARD study demonstrated that benazepril combined with hydrochlorothiazide is superior to benazepril combined with amlodipine in reducing urinary excretion of albumin. However, combined treatment with a RAS inhibitor and a diuretic often fails to achieve target BP levels and enough reduction of urinary albumin. Thus, the present study is designed to investigate whether up-titrating the dose of telmisartan would be superior to adding amlodipine with respect to urinary albumin excretion for the same degree of BP reduction in diabetic patients with albuminuria being treated with a standard dose of telmisartan plus trichlormethiazide.

ESTIMATE-A is a 6-months, prospective, randomized, open, blinded-endpoint (PROBE) study. Type 2 diabetic patients with hypertension and albminuria are recruited and antihypertensive medications are either started on or switched to telmisartan (40mg/day) + trichlormethiazide (1mg/day). After a 3-month run-in period, baseline evaluations are performed and patients with BP >=130/80mmHg and urinary excretion of albumin >=30mg/g creatinine are enrolled. Then, patients are assigned to receive telmisartan (40mg/day) + amlodipine (5mg/day) + trichlormethiazide (1mg/day) for 6 months. In cases that the target blood pressure level (<130/80mmHg) is not achieved, increasing doses of an alpha-blocker are prescribed to achieve the target level. Primary and secondary endpoints are evaluated at 3 and 6 months.
After a 3-month run-in period, baseline evaluations are performed and patients with BP >=130/80mmHg and urinary excretion of albumin >=30mg/g creatinine are enrolled. Then, patients are assigned to receive telmisartan (80mg/day) + trichlormethiazide (1mg/day) for 6 months. In cases that the target blood pressure level (<130/80mmHg) is not achieved, increasing doses of an alpha-blocker are prescribed to achieve the target level. Primary and secondary endpoints are evaluated at 3 and 6 months.

Type 2 diabetic patients with essential hypertension and albuminuria are recruited and are either started on or switched to telmisartan (40mg/day) + trichlormethiazide (1mg/day) for 3 months (run-in -period). Patients aged 20 years or older with BP >=130/80 mmHg and urinary excretion of albumin >=30mg/g creatinine at the end of run-in-period are finally enrolled.
Previous acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction, or stroke <6 months before informed consent; serum creatinine >1.5mg/dL (male) and >1.2mg/dL (female); serum potassium >=5.5mEq/L; office BP >=180/110mmHg; uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (HbA1c >=9.0%).
