Clinical effectiveness of amlodipine/indapamide/perindopril fixed-dose combination in patients with metabolic disorders: results of post hoc analyzes of the TRICOLOR study

Aim. To describe antihypertensive effectiveness of triple fixed-dose combination of am lo dipine/indapamide/perindopril and assess predictors of its clinical effectiveness in pati ents depending on body mass index (BMI) and presence of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Material and methods . This observational prospective study TRICOLOR (NCT03722524) (n=1247) demonstrated high antihypertensive effectiveness and good tolerability of amlodipine/indapamide/perindopril fixed-dose combination. Subgroup analyzes based on BMI included data from 1144 patients. In a second subgroup analysis, 1128 patients were stratified according to concomitant T2D. Results. In patients with overweight/obesity and diabetes, good antihypertensive effectiveness of amlodipine/indapamide/perindopril was observed, comparable in blood pressure (BP) reduction with the comparison groups (patients with normal BMI and patients without diabetes). At the same time, patients with normal BMI, compared with patients with overweight and obesity, had significantly lower systolic BP (SBP) (after 4 and 12 weeks) and diastolic BP (DBP) (after 2 and 12 weeks). In the subgroups, depending on the diabetes status, there were no significant differences in the decrease in SBP and DBP levels at all follow-up points. By the 12th week, BP decrease in the group of patients with normal BMI was 32,9 (10,5)/15,3 (8,6) mm Hg, in the group with overweight — 33,2 (11,3)/14,2 (8,5) mm Hg, in the obesity group — 33,9 (12,3)/14,1 (8,8) mm Hg (p>0,05 for intergroup comparison).
