Effect of Ticagrelor on Adenosine-Induced Coronary Flow Reserve in Patients With Microvascular Angina

November 5, 2014 updated by: Daoquan Peng, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University
This study is undertaken to determine if ticagrelor augments adenosine-induced coronary flow reserve (CFR), ameliorates clinical symptomatology and exercise tolerance in patients with MVA

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Considering the reduced CFR and increased platelet aggregability in patients with MVA, together with the augmented effect on adenosine-mediated coronary blood flow and potent antiplatelet effect of ticagrelor, we speculate that ticagrelor can promisingly ameliorate the coronary microvascular function in patients with MVA.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

For inclusion in the study subjects should fulfill the following criteria:

  1. Provision of informed consent prior to any study specific procedures
  2. Female or male aged 18-80 years
  3. A diagnosis of stable primary MVA based on the presence of

    • a history of typical effort angina,
    • exercise-induced ST-segment depression>1 mm,
    • normal or near-normal (coronary artery stenosis<50%) coronary angiography,
    • absence vasospastic angina
    • a coronary flow reserve (CFR) <2.5 in the left anterior descending coronary artery as assessed by coronary blood flow (CBF) response to adenosine at transthoracic Doppler echocardiography
    • suboptimal control of symptoms on conventional anti-ischemic therapy, as indicated by the occurrence of >1 episode per week of angina

Exclusion Criteria:

ubjects should not enter the study if any of the following exclusion criteria are fulfilled:

  1. concomitance with any of the cardiac condition below

    • significant (>50%)coronary plaque disease
    • coronary artery spasm at angiography or other evidence of vasospastic angina
    • valvular or other structural heart disease
    • uncontrolled hypertension
    • abnormal echocardiographic examination including left ventricular hypertrophy
  2. no previous consumption of the ticagrelor
  3. no apparent contraindications to ticagrelor administration.

    • History of Intracranial Hemorrhage
    • Active Bleeding
    • Severe Hepatic Impairment: AST and ALT are greater than 3 times of the upper limit. Bilirubin is greater than the upper limit.
    • hypersensitivity (e.g. angioedema) to ticagrelor or any component of the product
    • severe COPD or asthma
