Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of our study is to evaluate if the use of a precision-medicine approach with a specific therapy tailored on the underlying pathogenic mechanism will improve the quality-of-life in MINOCA patients. The investigators further aim at investigating wherever a precision-medicine approach will improve the prognosis, healthcare related costs, and if that a different profile of plasma biomarkers and microRNAs may serve as diagnostic tools for detecting specific causes of MINOCA and to assess response to therapy. Finally, beyond its pivotal role in differential diagnosis, the investigators hypothesize that cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) may provide a morphological and functional cardiac characterization as well as help in the prognostic stratification.
Detailed Description
PROMISE study is a randomized multicenter prospective superiority phase IV trial comparing "precision medicine approach" versus "standard of care" in improving the prognosis and/or the quality-of-life of patients presenting with MINOCA. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to "precision medicine approach" consisting of a comprehensive diagnostic work up aim at elucidating the pathophysiological mechanism of MINOCA and consequently a tailored pharmacological approach versus "standard of care" consisting of standard diagnostic algorithm and therapy for myocardial infarction. The aim of the study is to evaluate if the use of a precision-medicine approach with a specific therapy tailored on the underlying pathogenic mechanism will improve the quality-of-life in MINOCA patients (primary objective). The investigators further aim at investigating wherever a precision-medicine approach will improve the prognosis, healthcare related costs, and if that a different profile of plasma biomarkers and microRNAs may serve as diagnostic tools for detecting specific causes of MINOCA and to assess response to therapy (secondary objectives). Finally, beyond its pivotal role in differential diagnosis, the investigators hypothesize that cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) may provide a morphological and functional cardiac characterization as well as help in the prognostic stratification (secondary objective). The study is a multicentre trial involving 3 centers: IRCCS Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli (Study Promoter), Centro Cardiologico Monzino IRCCS, IRCCS Policlinico San Donato. It will include 180 patients aged \>18 years hospitalized for MINOCA randomized 1:1 to a "precision medicine approach" consisting of a comprehensive diagnostic work-up, analysis of circulating biomarkers and micro RNA expression profile and pharmacological treatment specific for the underlying cause versus a "standard approach" consisting of routine diagnostic work-up and standard medical treatment.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Angina status
Time Frame: 1-year follow-up
Angina status will be evaluated using the single-item "angina stability scale" and the two-item "angina frequence scale" of the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ). Scores are calculated by summing items within a dimension and transforming it to a 0-100 scale, where 0 is the worst and 100 the best possible level of health. \* To reduce the risk of detection and performance bias, a team of 2 cardiologists blinded to group allocation and belonging to an external cardiology unit will submit and collate the questionnaires from study participants.
eattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ)
Time Frame: 1-year follow-up
Quality of life will be evaluated using the nine-item scale of "physical limitations scale", the three-item "treatment satisfaction scale" and two-item "disease perception scale" of the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ). Scores are calculated by summing items within a dimension and transforming it to a 0-100 scale, where 0 is the worst and 100 the best possible level of health. \* To reduce the risk of detection and performance bias, a team of 2 cardiologists blinded to group allocation and belonging to an external cardiology unit will submit and collate the questionnaires from study participants.
