Abstract

MPC-1304 ((±)-methyl 2-oxopropyl 1,4-dihydro 2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-nitrophenyl)-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate, CAS 86780-90-7), a new calcium antagonist, was orally administered to 10 outpatients with mild essential hypertension. It was observed that MPC-1304 inhibited elevations of blood pressure both at rest and under exercise loading without any adverse hemodynamie effects. The findings obtained indicated that MPC-1304 would be clinically useful in the treatment of hypertensive patients undergoing therapy while continuing normal everyday activities including physical exertion.
