Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Change From Baseline in Mean Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure (msSBP)
Baseline, 10 weeks

Sitting BP measurements were performed at trough (immediately prior to dosing at the clinic). At study entry, BP was measured in both arms. The arm with the higher SBP reading was used for the 4 measurements at screening visit and the same arm was used at all subsequent visits. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Secondary Endpoints
Change From Baseline in Mean 24 Hour Ambulatory Systolic Blood Pressure (maSBP)
Baseline, 10 weeks
Change From Baseline in Mean Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure (msSBP) and Mean Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure (msDBP)
Baseline, 4 weeks, 14 weeks
Change in Baseline in Mean 24 Hour Ambulatory Diastolic Blood Pressure (maDBP)

LCZ696EXPERIMENTALParticipants were treated with one LCZ696 100 mg tablet and one placebo of LCZ696 every day (qd) for 4 weeks along with placebo of Olmesartan 10 mg capsule qd. Participants were then up-titrated to LCZ 200 mg tablet and one placebo of LCZ696 qd for 6 weeks along with placebo of Olmesartan 20 mg capsule qd. Participants, who did not achieve their goal BP, were uptitrated to 2 LCZ696 200 mg tablets (LCZ696 400 mg) qd for 4 weeks along with placebo of Olmesartan 40 mg capsule qd.
