ImportanceAngiotensinogen is the most upstream precursor of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, a key pathway in blood pressure (BP) regulation. Zilebesiran, an investigational RNA interference therapeutic, targets hepatic angiotensinogen synthesis.ObjectiveTo evaluate antihypertensive efficacy and safety of different zilebesiran dosing regimens ...

Less than half of the subjects with hypertension have been diagnosed and treated, with only 21% having their blood pressure under control. Many of the subjects find it difficult to adhere to daily antihypertensives. Zilebesiran reduces hepatic angiotensinogen messenger RNA levels to inhibit the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and is being ...

Safety and Efficacy of Novel RNA Interference Therapeutic Agent Zilebesiran in People With Hypertension: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and renal diseases. Despite the availability of a wide variety of anti-hypertensive agents, a large number of patients on anti-hypertensive therapy have uncontrolled hypertension. Several factors, such as incorrect dosage and treatment non-adherence due to side effects, polypharmacy, and complex ...

Hypertension Cure Research progress: The use of Zilebesiran in Hypertension
Chronic hypertension is a lifelong condition, and the patients need lifelong treatment with oral anti-hypertensive medications to say healthy and to prevent the development of serious complications. Demands for changing this situation of lifelong dependence on daily medications have been increasing.
