E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to assess the effect of add-on treatment with zibotentan on treadmill exercise time based on a Bruce protocol exercise test in patients with microvascular angina and impaired exercise intolerance.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To assess the effects of add-on treatment with zibotentan on other measures of exercise performance, anginal symptoms, and quality of life;
To assess whether the effects of add-on treatment with zibotentan on exercise test performance varies by genotype for the endothelin-1 gene SNP regulator;
To assess the safety of add-on treatment with zibotentan;
To assess the effects of add-on treatment with zibotentan on mechanistic biomarkers, and their association with treatment response/discontinuation

E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Yes |
E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
Full Title: A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial of zibotentan in microvascular angina
An optional MRI sub-study is included in the protocol and is available to participants as part of the trial. MRI scanners will take detailed pictures of the heart and help evaluate whether treatment with zibotentan improves heart structure, function and blood flow. Software to be utilised for this sub-study has been funded and provided by Siemens Healthcare Ltd, and analysis of this data will take place in Glasgow.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary outcome measure will be subject change in exercise duration(s) on the full Bruce protocol at visits 3 and 5 |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
All of the analyses will be carried out according to a detailed Statistical Analysis Plan, to be written and approved prior to database lock and unblinding of treatment allocations, according to Glasgow Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) Standard Operating Procedures. An analysis by genotype will be prioritised.
The primary outcome will be analysed in the following sub-groups.
Categorical variables: - genotype, sex, history of vasospastic angina.
Continuously distributed variables (by thirds of the baseline distribution): age, eGFR, BMI, systolic blood pressure.
Results will be presented within each sub-group along with a test for treatment by sub-group interaction.
No interim analyses are planned. |
