Protecting Renal Function in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients with Isolated Nighttime Hypertension

Participants will receive Almar 10 mg orally once daily between 8:00 PM and midnight. At the subsequent visit, if nocturnal blood pressure remains above the target of \<120/70 mmHg, Amlodipine Besylate will be added at a dose of 2.5 mg to 5 mg orally once daily. Should nocturnal blood pressure still not achieve the target at the following visit, Clonidine Hydrochloride 75 µg will be added to the regimen. The target for nocturnal blood pressure control is set at \<120/70 mmHg. For participants whose clinic blood pressure exceeds 140/90 mmHg, an unscheduled visit will be arranged within one month. If elevated clinic blood pressure persists during this visit, a 24-hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) will be conducted. If the ABPM results indicate daytime blood pressure ≥135/85 mmHg, open-label add-on antihypertensive therapy will be initiated, prioritizing the use of antihypertensive medications outside of the study drugs to achieve blood pressure control.

Participants are treated with corresponding placebo
