Ischemia score defined on the basis of absolute hyperemic MBF as: (1) MBF 2.0-2.3 ml/g/min (mild ischemia); (2) 1.7 to < 2.0 ml/g/min (moderate ischemia); (3) MBF <1.7 ml/g/min (severe ischemia) NB: normal hyperemic MBF defined as > 2.3 mL/g/min 3c.Change in inducible perfusion defect, from baseline to EOT, expressed as % of myocardium 4a.Change in the mean ∆WMSI deviation above normal from baseline DSE to EOT DSE study, termed "mean WMSI". 4b.WMSI evaluates both the extent and severity of-treatment abnormal segments, with mean WMSI for a patient representing an average of the patient’s WMSI profile over the course of the DSE study from rest and through all DSE stages evaluated Assessed in evaluable patients defined as those with any abnormal stress response to DSE (i.e. readout of anti-ischemic efficacy applicable to all categories of abnormal dobutamine stress response including any of classical ischemic, viability [meaning those dysfunctional at rest but improving with dobutamine], biphasic or fixed patterns) – this DSE readout is designed to be applicable to the broadest number of patients In addition, a specific evaluation will be made of all patients with any pattern of inducible ischemia, defined as those with either classical ischemic or biphasic responses to dobutamine Patients who have normal wall motion response at the baseline DSE examination (i.e. WMSI = 1 at rest and at all DSE stages evaluated) will not be evaluable for the mean WMSI endpoint Patients who reach different peak DSE stages between baseline and EOT imaging will have the mean WMSI deviation above normal analysis limited up to the highest common DSE stage reached in both studies Change in mean Wall Motion Score (WMS) deviation above normal from baseline DSE to EOT DSE study in segments that were abnormal at baseline DSE, termed ‘mean WMS of abnormal segments’ For this endpoint, instead of averaging over 16 segments to obtain WMSI, the mean WMS is taken over the number of segments that exhibited abnormal responses at baseline (i.e. excluding all segments with normal WMS = 1 throughout DSE) Assessed in evaluable patients defined as those with any abnormal stress response to DSE (i.e. including any of classical ischemic, viability, biphasic or fixed patterns) Change in the maximal WMSI from baseline (pre-study drug) to the EOT, termed ‘ΔΔWMSI’ Assessed in evaluable patients with inducible ischemia defined as those with ΔWMSI > 0 at the baseline DSE study, i.e. those patients with evidence of either a classical ischemic response pattern or biphasic response pattern to dobutamine stress Patients who exhibit viability, normal or fixed patterns of responses to DSE at baseline study will not be evaluable for the ΔΔWMSI endpoint Maximal ΔWMSI is defined as the maximum increase in WMSI during the DSE protocol: for those with a classical ischemic pattern of response todobutamine stress, maximal ΔWMSI is defined as the maximum increase in WMSI from rest to peak stress (the latter may be at any stage of the DSE protocol, i.e. 20, 30 or 40 μg/kg/min dose levels of infused dobutamine) o for those with a biphasic pattern of response to dobutamine stress (where only at higher doses of dobutamine is there evidence of inducible ischemia, i.e. an increase in WMSI), maximal ΔWMSI is defined at baseline as the maximum increase in WMSI from the dose at which WMSI is lowest to peak stress (maximum level of dobutamine reached after the WMSI nadir). At follow-up maximal ΔWMSI is the maximum increase in WMSI during the DSE protocol.Analyses will be undertaken grouping both classical and biphasic responses together (i.e. representing all patients with inducible ischemia by DSE), as well as individually
