Overview

Die Hypertonie zählt nach wie vor zu den häufigsten und folgenschwersten Erkrankungen, die in der hausärztlichen Versorgung behandelt werden. Dennoch gelingt es einem beträchtlichen Teil der Patienten trotz der Einnahme mehrerer Medikamente nicht, eine adäquate Blutdruckeinstellung zu erreichen. Ein Aldosteronüberschuss – sei es in Form eines manifesten primären Aldosteronismus oder im Rahmen einer breiter gefassten, Aldosteron-getriebenen Pathophysiologie – gilt mittlerweile als weitaus häufigerer Faktor bei schwer einstellbarer Hypertonie, als dies früher angenommen wurde; dies stellt eine kritische Lücke sowohl in der klinischen Erkennung als auch in der Behandlung dar.

Aldosteron-Synthase-Inhibitoren (ASI) stellen einen neuartigen mechanistischen Ansatz dar, der direkt auf die Aldosteronproduktion abzielt, indem er CYP11B2 hemmt; damit bieten sie eine pathophysiologisch fundierte Strategie, die sich vom Mineralokortikoid-Rezeptor-Antagonismus unterscheidet. In diesem Fortbildungspodcast für Ärzte beleuchten wir die sich abzeichnenden klinischen Studienergebnisse zu ASI und untersuchen dabei deren Wirksamkeit, Sicherheitsaspekte sowie die Frage, wie diese Wirkstoffe in evidenzbasierte Behandlungsalgorithmen für Patienten mit schwer einstellbarer Hypertonie integriert werden können. Kliniker erhalten dadurch ein klareres Gerüst, um geeignete Kandidaten zu identifizieren und diese neue Wirkstoffklasse in den sich stetig wandelnden Kontext des Hypertonie-Managements einzuordnen.
