Renal Denervation Using the SYMPLICITY Renal Denervation System in Patients With Uncontrolled Hypertension - SYMPLICITY HTN-4

An international, multi-center, prospective, blinded, randomized, controlled trial. The
objective is to demonstrate that catheter-based renal denervation is an effective and safe
treatment for uncontrolled hypertension.

After the 6 month follow-up required testing has been completed, control group subjects
would be unblinded to their randomization group and would have an option, at the discretion
of the Investigator and with written concurrence of the medical monitor, to be treated with
renal denervation procedure. However, after enrollment closure, subjects previously
randomized were no longer allowed to cross-over.
