What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change From Baseline in Maximum ST Segment Change Adjusted for Heart Rate (ST-HR) Index

    ST/HR index was measured as the average change in ST segment depression relative to heart rate change over the entire duration of exercise, monitored by ECG during the exercise treadmill tests. Change in maximum ST/HR index between the average of tests 1-3 (pre Ranexa® treatment) performed during baseline period and test 4 (post Ranexa® treatment) during treatment period was reported.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 15

  2. Change From Baseline in Maximum ST Segment Change Adjusted for Heart Rate (ST-HR) Slope

    ST-HR slope is an index of exercise induced ischemia. Linear regression was used to determine the slope of the ST/HR relationship in a participant's ECG response monitored during the exercise treadmill test. The highest ST segment/heart rate slope from among all the ECG leads and the X-axis intercept of the associated line were used to generate the maximum slope. Change in maximum ST-HR slope between the average of tests 1-3 (pre Ranexa® treatment) performed during baseline period and test 4 (post Ranexa® treatment) during treatment period was reported.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 15

  3. Change From Baseline in X-Axis Intercept of ST-HR Slope

    Linear regression was used to determine the slope of the ST/HR relationship in a participant's ECG response monitored during the exercise treadmill test. Change in X- axis intercept of ST-HR slope between the average of tests 1-3 (pre Ranexa® treatment) performed during baseline period and test 4 (post Ranexa® treatment) during treatment period was reported.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 15

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change From Baseline in Total Exercise Duration

    Total exercise duration was defined as the elapsed time between the start of exercise and termination of exercise for severe angina, dyspnea or extreme fatigue assessed during the exercise treadmill test. Change in the duration of exercise between the average of tests 1-3 (pre Ranexa® treatment) performed during baseline period and test 4 (post Ranexa® treatment) during treatment period was reported.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 15

  2. Change From Baseline in Time to Onset of 1 mm ST Segment Depression (Time to Ischemia)

    Exercise-induced ischemia was defined as the new development of horizontal or down sloping ST-segment depression (≥ 1 mm at 60 milliseconds after the J point) vs. baseline tracings. Change in time to onset of 1 mm ST depression between the average of tests 1-3 (pre Ranexa® treatment) performed during baseline period and test 4 (post Ranexa® treatment) during treatment period was reported.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 15

  3. Change From Baseline in Time to Onset of Angina

    Time to onset of angina was defined as the elapsed time between the start of exercise and the onset of anginal chest pain as reported by the participant. Change in time to angina between the average of tests 1-3 (pre Ranexa® treatment) performed during baseline period and test 4 (post Ranexa® treatment) during treatment period was reported.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 15

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ranolazine 500 mg in people with Atherosclerotic Coronary Vascular Disease, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Jun 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline in Maximum ST Segment Change Adjusted for Heart Rate (ST-HR) Index (time frame: Baseline up to Day 15). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jun 2021.
