Randomized Evaluation of Patients With Stable Angina Comparing Diagnostic Examinations
Chest PainStable Angina Pectoris3 moreThis randomized, controlled, diagnostic, multicenter trial will compare two diagnostic imaging pathways--coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and single photon emission tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)--to determine the incidence of major adverse coronary events (MACE), defined as myocardial infarction (MI) or cardiac-related death, and cross-over to revascularization. CCTA may be used to direct patients with symptoms of stable angina or angina equivalent to optimal medical therapy (OMT). The use of CCTA as a diagnostic tool for angina symptoms will be associated with no increase in MACE or revascularization, decreased cost, reduced risks (e.g., less radiation exposure), additional insights into alternate explanations of chest pain, and increased cost-effectiveness in comparison with use of SPECT MPI/invasive coronary angiography (ICA).

Effect of Molsidomine on the Endothelial (Internal Layer of Blood Vessels) Dysfunction in Patients...
Stable Angina PectorisAtherosclerosisMolsidomine used as an add-on treatment on standard care therapy should be superior to placebo used also as an add-on treatment on standard care therapy on improving the endothelial function (endothelium score measured by reactive hyperemia - peripheral arterial tonometry [RH-PAT]) after 12 months of treatment in patients with stable angina patients and undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention. The study will be double-blind, parallel-group, randomised, multicentre, sequential, placebo-controlled study. The device used to determine RH-PAT will be EndoPAT. Duration of the treatment = one year.
Research on Nicorandil Treatment of Patients Diagnosed as CHD (Coronary Heart Disease) With Stable...
Stable AnginaCoronary DiseaseThis study of 402 cases of stable angina subjects who were diagnosed as Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is a randomized, blank controlled, multi-center clinical study. Subjects who are taking standard treatment with stable symptoms will receive a 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) (Holter) examination. They will be randomly divided into two groups. The nicorandil group will receive nicorandil 5 milligram (mg) (3 times a day = tid) on top of the standard treatment for 12 weeks, while the control group will stay on standard treatment. Nitrates and beta blockers need to be maintained on a stable dose. Other drugs that do not affect the primary endpoint may be adjusted per investigators decision.

Chronic Stable AnginaA randomized, open-label, single-dose, crossover clinical trial to evaluate the food effect on the pharmacokinetics of Dilatrend SR 64mg capsule after oral administration in healthy male volunteers.
Feasibility Study of Photopheresis Post Angioplasty
Stable Angina PectorisUnstable Angina Pectoris1 moreThe primary objective of the study is to evaluate the difference in 6-month restenosis rates in coronary artery lesions treated by photopheresis in addition to angioplasty with stent placement, as opposed to no photopheresis after angioplasty and stent placement. Restenosis means the closing up again, or narrowing in diameter, of the previously treated artery, which may cause reduced blood flow and the re-occurrence of symptoms. Photopheresis is a therapeutic technique in which a portion of your white blood cells is collected by a blood separation device and exposed to ultraviolet A light, in combination with the drug 8-MOP (8-methoxypsoralen), then returned to you. The secondary objectives are: To compare the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) between the three treatment groups for 6 months post-angioplasty. MACE events include death (cardiac related), myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, repeat angioplasty to the target vessel, hospitalization and clinical symptoms. To evaluate the safety of the treatment by comparing the incidence of acute and subacute thrombosis, bleeding and vascular complications and other non-MACE events every 2 weeks for 6 months post-angioplasty between the three treatment groups.
Comparison of Carvedilol and Atenolol on Anti-anginal and Metabolic Effects in Patients With Stable...
Stable Angina PectorisThere are few data regarding anti-anginal effects between beta-blockers with and without vasodilating property. Beta-blocker without vasodilating property is generally known to have unfavorable effects on glucose and lipid metabolism. Therefore, the investigators compared carvedilol and atenolol on anti-anginal and metabolic effects in patient with stable angina pectoris.
Treadmill Cardiovascular Safety Study of Erenumab (AMG 334)
Stable AnginaA phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with stable angina to evaluate the effect of erenumab (AMG 334) compared to placebo on exercise time during an exercise treadmill test.
