Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if targeted medical therapy will improve symptoms and quality of life in patients with angina and non-obstructive coronary arteries compared to placebo, after the underlying cause of the chest pain has been ascertained by coronary function testing. Participants will be treated with either medications that target the underlying cause of their chest pain or placebo for 50 days. They will be asked to complete a series of questionnaires to evaluate their quality of life at the beginning and end of the study.
Vasospastic angina is increasingly recognized as an important contributor to anginal symptoms in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA). Endothelial dysfunction and smooth muscle cell dysfunction are considered elementary in the development of vasospastic angina. As one of many functions, the vascular endothelium regulates local vascular tone, mainly through the vasodilatory effect of endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO). Vericiguat is a soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator and thereby acts directly on the NO signalling pathway from the endothelium towards the vascular smooth muscle cells. As such, Vericiguat potentially has an beneficial therapeutic effect in patients with vasospastic angina.The VIVA study aims to demonstrate the effect of Vericiguat on endothelial function and microvascular vasodilator responses, as well as its tolerability and safety in patients with vasospastic angina as the pathophysiological substrate of ANOCA.
ORBITA-MOON is a double-blinded, placebo-controlled experimental study that aims to understand how the different coronary artery stenoses contribute to overall clinical angina in patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease. This study will investigate the symptoms conferred by each stenosis, induced by experimental ischaemia, for 60 patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether a reduced radiation protocol (RRP) in which angiograms are acquired at ultralow radiation doses and then processed using spatiotemporal enhancement software can produce similar quality angiographic images as compared with standard techniques.
According to the 2020 Dutch guideline on chest pain (AP) without obstructive coronary artery disease, 70% of female and 30% of male patients undergoing a coronary angiogram (CAG), have no obstructive coronary artery disease.In the majority of patients the complaints are based on vascular dysfunction, including epicardial vascular spasms. For patients who are refractory to drug treatment, spinal cord stimulation (SCS) can be a treatment option. SCS is used for the treatment of refractory neuropathic and ischaemic pain. In recent studies the use of SCS is proven for refractory angina pectoris, but the group with refractory vasospastic angina pectoris (rVSA) predominantly seen in women with invalidating impairment of quality of life, is overlooked, as no evidence of obstruction is found at CAG. With this pilot study the investigators hypothesize that SCS is effective in reducing the number and intensity of angina attacks, reducing nitrate use, reducing inhospital treatment and ER presentations, thereby reducing medical costs, and above all, increasing quality of life.
Chronic angina pectoris refractory to medical and revascularization therapies is a disabling medical condition and a major public health problem. Patients with refractory angina have limited treatment options. One proposed therapy modality is transcatheter implantation of a reduction stent in the coronary sinus. Coronary sinus reduction stents have been shown to reduce angina burden considerably and to improve quality of life. The reduction stent is assumed to increase myocardial perfusion and reduce myocardial ischemia, but the mechanism of action is poorly understood. The aim of this project is to assess the myocardial ischemia burden in patients with refractory angina who are undergoing a transcatheter coronary sinus reducer procedure. This is a clinical non-randomized self-controlled cohort study with blinded outcome adjudication for changes in myocardial perfusion. Patients with refractory angina will be systematically examined before implantation of the coronary sinus reduction stent and after 6 months. The primary outcome, changes in myocardial perfusion on the gold standard 15O-H2O PET/CT will be evaluated on blinded perfusion scans where the stent is invisible. To provide context to the findings, we will also evaluate whether changes in myocardial ischemia are associated with less angina and better cardiac function parameters. Effects of stent implantation on angina symptoms and quality of life could be affected by a placebo effect. Treatment options for patients with refractory angina is needed, and results from the present study will explore if coronary sinus reduction stents are improving myocardial ischemia in this patient group. Signs of improved objective perfusion will inspire confidence in the method.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the DREAMS 3G in the treatment of subjects with up to two de novo lesions in native coronary arteries compared to a contemporary drug eluting stent (DES).
