A Multi-centric Study to Assess the Efficacy of Sigmart in Subjects With Recurrent Angina After Coronary Revascularization

Phase 4
Withdrawn
Conditions
Angina Pectoris
Registration Number
NCT01185015
Lead Sponsor
Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany
Brief Summary

The multi-centric, open label, single arm and self controlled study is planned to assess the efficacy of orally administered Sigmart in subjects with recurrent angina after coronary revascularization. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that orally administered Sigmart can improve the major Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT) result in recurrent angina subjects.

Weekly assessment of NTG consumption until visit 4 (day 28)

Adverse eventsuntil day 28

The incidence of adverse events (especially the incidence of headache)

Complianceuntil day 28

Compliance % (\[total number of tablets taken divided by the total number of tablets to be taken\] multiplied by 100)

Number of angina attacks per weekuntil day 28
