Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of ranolazine on different markers of cardiometabolic disease in women with stable angina.
Detailed Description
Evaluate the ability of ranolazine to favorably modify thrombogenic, inflammatory, lipogenic, oxidative stress and hormonal biomarkers in a relatively short period of time in a group of ethnically diverse women with chronic stable angina and metabolic syndrome.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Patients with chronic stable angina (\> 3 months) on evidence based adequate therapy
- •Evidence of stable coronary artery disease by any of these:
- •MI, PCI or CABG \> 30 days prior to enrollment or
- •Angiography showing \> 50% stenosis in major vessel, branch or bypass graft \> 30 days of enrollment or
- •Abnormal stress MPI nuclear study, or DBA stress echo where the decision has been to treat medically and where angina has remained stable for \>= 3 months
- •Evidence of the Metabolic Syndrome: As defined by ATP III criteria i.e 3/5 of following Abdominal circumference F \> 88 cm (35 in), M \> 102 cm (40 in) Hypertriglyceridemia ≥ 150 mg/dl HDL F \< 50 mg/dl M \< 40 mg/dl Blood Pressure ≥130/85 Fasting Glucose ≥100 mg/dl For reproductive age women, a negative urine pregnancy test is required if all other inclusion criteria are met.
Exclusion Criteria

- •Exclusion of Patients with CrCl \< 30 mL/min
- •Limit dose of RANEXA to 500mg BID in patients on concurrent diltiazem/ verapamil
- •Limit concurrent simvastatin to 20 mg/day
- •Limit concurrent metformin to 1700 mg/day Additional Exclusion
- •Patients with variable -inconsistent symptoms
- •Patients with unstable coronary artery disease or revascularization within 30 days of enrollment.
- •Patients who have known severe liver disease.
- •Patients already receiving maximal ranolazine therapy for more than 4 weeks
- •Presence of diabetes (AIC≥ 6.5 and /or on insulin therapy or anti-diabetic medication other than metformin) unstable hypothyroidism, active infection, active cancer (or ongoing chemotherapy and/or radiation within a year who are not on remission) and/or recent major surgery or illness.
Arms & Interventions
Ranolazine
Ranolazine would start with 500 mg BID and be force titrated to 1 gram po BID after 3 weeks. Down titration would only be allowed for side effects. This would be on top of all standard medical therapy.
Intervention: Ranolazine
Placebo
Placebo arm would start with 500 mg matching placebo tablet BID and be force titrated to 1 gram matching placebo tablet twice a day after 3 weeks. Down titration would only be allowed for side effects (if reported). This would be on top of all standard medical therapy.
Intervention: Placebo
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Impact of Ranolazine on Hemoglobin A1C
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 24 weeks
Will evaluate the impact of ranolazine in HgbA1C in women with Metabolic Syndrome (MBS)
Impact of Ranolazine on HDL-C Levels in Subjects
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to 24 weeks
Will evaluate the impact of ranolazine in HDL-C levels in women with metabolic syndrome
