Detailed Description

1. Research Background Coronary microvascular disease (MVD) is a clinical syndrome refers to laboratory evidence of exertional angina or myocardial ischemia caused by structural and/or functional abnormalities of precoronary arterioles and arterioles under the influence of multiple pathogenic factors.. The main symptoms of patients with coronary microvascular disease are exertion-related chest pain attacks. It is difficult to distinguish patients with coronary microvascular disease from patients with severe coronary stenosis based on symptoms alone. However, the following clinical characteristics suggest that patients have coronary microvascular disease. It is more likely. First of all, it is more common in women, accounting for about 56%-79% of patients with coronary microvascular disease. However, most female patients with coronary microvascular disease have their first symptoms after menopause, which is no different from traditional female coronary heart disease patients. Secondly, most of the symptoms are induced by exertion, but it is not uncommon to have patients with silent chest pain. There are fewer patients with coronary microvascular disease who simply present with silent chest pain. Impaired coronary dilatation, increased sympathetic stimulation and sensitivity, and exercise-mediated coronary constriction can lead to the development of coronary microvascular dysfunction and reduced coronary flow reserve. Long-term recurrent angina pectoris attacks affect the patient's quality of life. Patients with significantly reduced coronary blood flow reserve or myocardial perfusion reserve, especially female patients, may have a higher incidence of adverse cardiovascular events.

   Regarding drug treatment, traditional anti-ischemic treatment methods are currently recommended, including β- blockers, calcium ion antagonists and nitrates. If symptoms persist, other drugs include angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, statins, ivabradine , ranolazine , and estrogen drugs. However, there is no specific clinical drug treatment. Basic and clinical studies of the traditional Chinese medicine Compound Danshen Dripping Pill have found that it can improve vascular endothelial function and relieve angina pectoris, and is widely used in clinical practice. However, its effect on coronary reserve function and angina pectoris in coronary microvascular disease needs further clinical research to confirm.

2. Study drug The main drug studied in this study is Compound Danshen Dripping Pill. Compound Danshen Dripping Pills (Compound Danshen Dripping Pills, produced by Tasly Holding Group Co., Ltd.) is a compound traditional Chinese medicine preparation composed of Salvia miltiorrhiza, Panax notoginseng, and Borneol. In 1994, it was approved as a drug for the treatment of coronary heart disease and angina pectoris. It has good clinical efficacy and has It has the characteristics of fast onset, low toxicity, small adverse reactions and high safety.

The active ingredients of compound Danshen dripping pills are water-soluble phenolic acids such as salvia miltiorrhiza and Panax notoginseng saponins. During the preparation process, borneol and auxiliary materials are added, and a highly dispersed solid dispersion is made through a specific process. The active ingredients of the drug have high purity, are evenly dispersed, and can be quickly absorbed through the mucous membrane. The dripping pills have good solid dispersion effect. The principle is to melt the drug ingredients and matrix into a solid solution, and the active ingredients of the drug are in the molecular state or in extremely fine form. The crystalline state is highly uniformly dispersed in the matrix, with fast drug dissolution and higher bioavailability. It can be taken sublingually and can quickly relieve angina pectoris and chest tightness.

Compound Danshen Dripping Pill has achieved a full-process quality control method from medicinal materials, intermediates to preparations (GAP-GEP-GMP) through the multi-factor fingerprint quality control system of compound oral Chinese medicine preparations, further improving the full-process quality control system of Compound Danshen Dripping Pill , after testing and analyzing nearly 200 batches of Compound Salvia Miltiorrhizae Dropping Pills Extract and Compound Salvia Miltiorrhizae Dropping Pills, the similarity is over 90%, and the quality of the products is stable between batches. It has been confirmed through the toxicology study of Compound Danshen Dripping Pill and the clinical use of hundreds of millions of people: it has no toxicity, few adverse reactions, and is safe and reliable for long-term use.

2. Number of angina attacks per week;
3. The time when angina pectoris occurs in exercise test; 4 ) The time when ischemic ST segment depression occurs during exercise testing.

8.Safety assessment Including clinical adverse reactions, laboratory indicators, etc. 9. Adverse event observation and reporting 9.1Definition of Adverse Events Adverse events refer to any adverse medical event that occurs to a patient in this clinical trial from the time the patient signs the informed consent form and is selected to participate in the trial to the last follow-up visit, regardless of whether this event is causally related to the above-mentioned drugs. .

NOTE: An adverse reaction may be any discomfort and unconscious signs (including abnormal laboratory test results), symptoms, or disease (new or worsening) related to the medication.

Events that meet the definition of adverse events include:

• Exacerbation of an existing chronic or intermittent disease, including increased frequency and/or intensity.
• A disease that is newly detected or diagnosed after taking the investigational drug, even though it may have been present before the trial began.
• Signs, symptoms, or clinical sequelae suspected of being caused by an interaction.
• Signs, symptoms or clinical sequelae caused by suspected overdose of the investigational drug or concomitant medication (overdose itself is not an adverse event / serious adverse event).
• " Lack of efficacy " or " failure to achieve the expected pharmacological effect " itself is not reported as an adverse event or serious adverse event. However, signs, symptoms, and/or clinical sequelae due to lack of efficacy will also be reported as adverse events or serious adverse events if they meet the definition of an adverse event or serious adverse event.

Events that do not meet the definition of an adverse event include:

• Medical or surgical procedure (e.g., endoscopy, appendectomy); the event leading up to the procedure is an adverse event.
• Situations in which adverse medical events would not occur (social security and / or admission facilitation).

• There was no worsening of pre-existing diseases or conditions that were present or detected at the start of the trial, only expected day-to-day fluctuations.

  • disease being studied , or the expected progression, signs, or symptoms of the disease being studied. Unless the situation is more serious than expected.

Definition of serious adverse event " serious adverse event " is an adverse event that can occur at any dose and will:

• cause death;
• threatening life; Note: " Life-threatening " means that the subject is in danger of death when the event occurs, not that death could theoretically result if the event were more serious.
• Requires hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization; Note: Typically hospitalization refers to a subject staying in the hospital or emergency room (usually at least overnight) to receive observation and/or treatment that cannot be completed in the doctor's office or outpatient clinic. Complications that occur during hospitalization are considered adverse events. An event is classified as a serious adverse event if the complication prolongs hospitalization or meets the criteria for any other serious adverse event. When it cannot be determined whether " hospitalization " occurred or was necessary, it will be treated as a serious adverse event.

Elective hospitalization that does not worsen a pre-existing condition compared with baseline is not an adverse event.

• Causes disability, or affects the ability to work and live; Note: " Disability " refers to a substantial impairment of an individual's ability to carry out normal life. It does not include discomforts of little clinical significance, such as common headaches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, influenza, and accidental trauma (such as sprained ankles), which may affect the quality of daily life but will not constitute a substantial disruption.
• Cause congenital malformations; In other cases, medical or scientific judgment should determine whether adverse event reporting is appropriate. For example, some important medical events may not be immediately life-threatening, leading to death or hospitalization, but may harm subjects or require drug or surgical intervention to avoid the serious adverse events listed above. These events should also be considered serious adverse events, such as invasive or malignant cancer, allergic bronchospasm requiring close monitoring in the emergency room or at home, hematologic cachexia, or convulsions that do not result in hospitalization, drug dependence, or drug abuse.

9.2 Adverse drug reactions Definition: Refers to harmful reactions that occur under normal usage and dosage of qualified drugs and have nothing to do with the purpose of medication.

Causal judgment indicators for adverse reaction judgment:

Item 1 : Is there a reasonable sequence between the time of starting medication and the time when the suspicion appears? Item 2 : Whether the suspected adverse reaction conforms to the known adverse reaction type of the drug; Item 3: Whether the suspected adverse reaction can be explained by the patient's pathological condition, concomitant medications, concomitant therapies, or previous therapies; Item 4 : After stopping the drug or reducing the dose, whether the suspected adverse reactions are reduced or disappeared; Item 5 : Whether the same reaction reappears after using the suspected drug again.

Causality judgment criteria: Judgment based on the order of the above five judgment indicators.

It is up to the investigator to evaluate possible associations between adverse events, trial drugs, and concomitant medications according to the table below.

Adverse reaction cause and effect judgment table

critical result Judgment index Project 1 Project 2 Project 3 Item 4 Item 5 Definitely related + + - + + probably related + + - + ? may be relevant + + ± ± ? suspicious + - ± ± ? Impossibly related + - + - -

Explanation: + Affirmation, - Negation, ± Difficult to affirm or deny,? The situation is unknown.

1.Based on the table above, determine the relationship between the following grade 5 adverse events and the drug.

( 1 ) Definitely related, ( 2 ) Probably related, ( 3 ) Possibly related, ( 4 ) Suspicious, ( 5 ) Impossibly related.

2. The incidence rate of adverse reactions is calculated using the total number of 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 cases as the numerator, and all selected cases that can be evaluated for adverse reactions as the denominator.

9.3Recording of adverse events on the basis of comprehensive consideration of comorbidities and concomitant medications, their relevance to the experiment should be evaluated. The relevance of the drug and documented in detail by the physician.

If an adverse event is discovered, the observing physician can decide whether to terminate the observation based on the condition. Cases of drug discontinuation due to adverse events should be followed up and investigated, and the results should be recorded in detail. If any abnormality in safety test indicators ( blood, urine, stool routine, electrocardiogram, liver function, kidney function ) occurs during or after treatment , the adverse event form should be filled in in a timely manner, reviewed at an appropriate time, and communicated with the subject A comprehensive analysis will be conducted on the onset, treatment, etc. to determine whether it is related to the experimental drug.

9.4 Handling of serious adverse events For any serious adverse events that occur during the trial ( including events requiring hospitalization, prolonged hospitalization, disability, affecting work ability, endangering life or death, causing congenital malformations, etc.) during the clinical trial , the researcher shall immediately respond to the patient's request. In addition to taking emergency measures, the subject must also immediately report to the ethics committee of the National Drug Clinical Trial Institution of Shandong University Qilu Hospital and the main research unit Tianjin Tasly Co., Ltd., the unit responsible for the research. The content of the report of serious adverse events should include: patient's name, random number, length of study participation, start date and stop date of serious adverse events, maximum intensity of serious adverse events, possible relationship between serious adverse events and study drugs, due to serious Whether the adverse event required a change in the study drug, the treatment given to the patient as a result of the serious adverse event, concomitant medications if the serious adverse event occurred, and the outcome of the serious adverse event.
