What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change From Baseline in Myocardial Blood Flow Reserve (MFR) by Stress Positron Emission Tomography (PET) at Week 12
Myocardial blood flow reserve is a measure of endothelial function measured by positron emission tomography.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Secondary outcomes (7)
Change From Baseline in Myocardial Blood Flow (MBF) by Rest Positron Emission Tomography (PET) at Week 12
Myocardial blood flow is a measure of endothelial function measured by positron emission tomography.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline in Myocardial Blood Flow (MBF) by Stress Positron Emission Tomography (PET) at Week 12
Myocardial blood flow is a measure of endothelial function measured by positron emission tomography.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline in Ejection Fraction at Week 12
Echocardiography was used to measure ejection fraction.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline in Left Ventricular End-Systolic Dimension (LVESD) at Week 12
Echocardiography was used to measure LVESD.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline in Left Ventricular Wall Thickness at Week 12
Echocardiography was used to measure left ventricular wall thickness.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline in Cardiac Diastolic Function: Early [E] to Late [A] Ventricular Filling Velocities (E/A) Ratio at Week 12
Echocardiography was used to measure E/A ratio.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Change From Baseline in Seattle Angina Questionnaire(SAQ) Score at Week 12
Seattle angina questionnaire (SAQ) score will be classified into five dimensions: physical limitation (question 1), anginal stability (question 2), anginal frequency (question 3-4), treatment satisfaction (question 5-8) and disease perception (question 9-11). Individual dimensions of the SAQ are transformed into the standard score between 0 and 100. The range of scores was 0 to 100, with higher scores indicates better functioning.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Nicorandil in people with Non-obstructive Coronary Artery Disease, run by Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany at 1 site in China.
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 5 inclusion and 20 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 7 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
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 7 Jul 2020). 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 Myocardial Blood Flow Reserve (MFR) by Stress Positron Emission Tomography (PET) at Week 12 (time frame: Baseline, Week 12). 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 7 Jul 2020.
