Exclusion Criteria
  • Intervention e.g. revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and/or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) during the last 3 months
  • Progressive angina with symptoms of worsening of angina within the < 3 months prior to the first screening examination
  • History of recent (< 6 months prior to the first screening examination) myocardial infarction or unstable angina
  • Symptomatic carotid stenosis, or transient ischemic attack or stroke within 3 months prior to the first screening examination or patients with stroke at more than 3 months prior to the first screening examination with significant residual neurologic involvement
  • Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus
  • Clinically relevant cardiac ischemia at screening
  • Clinical significant persistent ischemia, which should be ruled out by clinical judgment of the investigator, based on medical history, available clinical data e.g. past angiograms or preexisting or current exercise testing with any imaging technique (e.g. dobutamine stress echocardiography, adenosine or dobutamine stress cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), scinthigraphy or exercise ECG)
  • Atrial fibrillation, pacemaker, defibrillator, atrial ventricular (AV)-block II and III
  • Systolic blood pressure below 110 or above 160 mmHg at first screening visit
  • Diastolic blood pressure above 100 mmHg at first screening visit
  • Heart rate below 50 or above 100 beats / min (taken from ECG measurement) at first screening visit
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 mL/min/1.73m*2 at first screening visit

Vericiguat + isosorbite mononitrateIsosorbide mononitrate (ISMN)Subjects received Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) up-titration with 30 mg / 60 mg, about 7 days each,prior to start of vericiguat administration. Then subjects received 2.5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by 5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by 10 mg vericiguat for about 14 days together 60 mg ISMN od on each day of vericiguat administration, taken 1 hour prior to vericiguat (in-house days) or together with vericiguat (out-patient days).
Vericiguat + isosorbite mononitrateVericiguat (BAY1021189)Subjects received Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) up-titration with 30 mg / 60 mg, about 7 days each,prior to start of vericiguat administration. Then subjects received 2.5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by 5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by 10 mg vericiguat for about 14 days together 60 mg ISMN od on each day of vericiguat administration, taken 1 hour prior to vericiguat (in-house days) or together with vericiguat (out-patient days).
Placebo + isosorbite mononitratePlaceboSubjects received Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) up-titration with 30 mg / 60 mg, about 7 days each, prior to start of placebo administration. Then subjects received placebo matching 2.5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by placebo matching 5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by placebo matching 10 mg vericiguat for about 14 days together 60 mg ISMN od on each day of placebo administration, taken 1 hour prior to placebo (in-house days) or together with placebo (out-patient days).
Placebo + isosorbite mononitrateIsosorbide mononitrate (ISMN)Subjects received Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) up-titration with 30 mg / 60 mg, about 7 days each, prior to start of placebo administration. Then subjects received placebo matching 2.5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by placebo matching 5 mg vericiguat for about 14 days, followed by placebo matching 10 mg vericiguat for about 14 days together 60 mg ISMN od on each day of placebo administration, taken 1 hour prior to placebo (in-house days) or together with placebo (out-patient days).
