Study Arms:
- Benazepril/amlodipine (Type: EXPERIMENTAL): Patients were instructed to take one capsule with water in the morning, except on the morning of their next office visit. On office visit days, study medication was taken after completion of the visit evaluations. Following randomization, all patients were treated at Dose Level 1 for 4 weeks, followed by a forced titration to Dose Level 2 for a subsequent 4 week period. Thereafter, patients were titrated as needed to Dose Level 3 to achieve a target blood pressure of \< 140/\< 90 mm Hg. For patients with diabetes or chronic kidney disease, investigators were encouraged to use a target blood pressure of 130/80 mm Hg.
- Benazepril/hydrochlorothiazide (Type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR): Patients were instructed to take one capsule with water in the morning, except on the morning of their next office visit. On office visit days, study medication was taken after completion of the visit evaluations. Following randomization, all patients were treated at Dose Level 1 for 4 weeks, followed by a forced titration to Dose Level 2 for a subsequent 4 week period. Thereafter, patients were titrated as needed to Dose Level 3 to achieve a target blood pressure of \< 140/\< 90 mm Hg. For patients with diabetes or chronic kidney disease, investigators were encouraged to use a target blood pressure of 130/80 mm Hg.

Based on this trial design, predict the completion outcome and termination type (if applicable).

Answer: outcome: terminate
termination_type: lack of efficacy
