SPYRAL HTN-ON MED Study of Renal Denervation With the Symplicity Spyral™ Multi-electrode Renal Denervation System

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that renal denervation decreases blood pressure and is safe when studied in the presence of up to three standard antihypertensive medications.

Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.
