Study Overview
Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Pletaal (Cilostazol) in comparison with placebo for 4 weeks in vasospastic angina patients who have an insufficient response to Amlodipine (Calcium channel blocker).
Detailed Description
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel group, Therapeutic exploratory Study.
The subject who has at least an episode of chest pain weekly despite Amlodipine 5mg once a day (qd) taking during 2 weeks will have treatment of Pletaal (Cilostazol) or Placebo for 4 weeks. Pletaal (Cilostazol) is taken 100mg oral tablets two times a day (bid) during 2 weeks after dosing of Pletaal (Cilostazol) 50mg oral tablets bid during 2 weeks. Placebo of Pletaal (Cilostazol) is used as the control medication.

Arms & Interventions
Cilostazol
To investigate the efficacy and safety of Pletaal(Cilostazol) in comparison with placebo for 4 weeks in vasospastic angina patients who have an insufficient response to Amlodipine (Calcium channel blocker).
Intervention: Placebo (Drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percent change of the chest pain frequency
Time Frame: A week before IP dosing and the final a week after IP dosing (average 6weeks)
Collect the chest pain frequency data related with vasospastic angina episodes by subject diaries. Descriptive statistics (N, mean, standard deviation, minimum, median and maximum) will be presented by treatment group. ANCOVA will be performed between the treatment groups using the baseline (a week before IP dosing) as covariate.
Secondary Outcomes
- The chest pain frequency, the pain intensity, nitroglycerin consumption of the final a week after IP dosing from a week before IP dosing(A week before IP dosing and the final a week after IP dosing (average 6weeks))
