Trial overview
The source data includes one trial that directly studies Glyceryl Trinitrate in patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA).[1] Other trials in the data set include products such as nitroglycerin or Nitrolingual/Nitrospray, but those are separate studies and are not the same as Glyceryl Trinitrate.[2][3]
Conditions studied
The Glyceryl Trinitrate trial in the source data is in patients with MINOCA, which means a heart attack with no major blockage in the coronary arteries.[1] The trial is designed to test a precision-medicine approach, meaning treatment based on the likely cause of the condition rather than the same treatment for everyone.[1]
Although the full trial set covers several other conditions, those studies do not list Glyceryl Trinitrate as the study drug.[2][3][4][5][6]
Who can participate
The Glyceryl Trinitrate study includes patients with MINOCA.[1] The data does not give a full list of eligibility rules, but the target group is clearly adults with this specific heart condition.[1]
Other trials in the source data include women with asymptomatic heart failure, patients with stable angina, kidney transplant patients, people with type 2 diabetes, and patients with esophageal food impaction.[2][3][4][5][6] These are different study groups and should not be confused with the Glyceryl Trinitrate trial itself.[2][3][4][5][6]
Trial phases and status
The Glyceryl Trinitrate study is a Phase 3 trial and is listed as completed.[1] Phase 3 means the study is in a later stage and is usually designed to see how well a treatment works in a larger group of people.[1]
In the wider set of trials, most studies are also Phase 3, while the esophageal food impaction study is Phase 2.[2][3][4][5][6] Status also varies, with studies listed as authorised, suspended, or completed.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Main endpoints and outcomes
The main endpoint for the Glyceryl Trinitrate trial is angina status and quality of life measured with the Seattle Angina Questionnaire at 1-year follow-up.[1] This means the researchers want to know how patients feel, how often they have chest pain symptoms, and how the condition affects daily life.[1]
Other trials in the source data measure different outcomes, such as exercise duration, adverse events, laboratory abnormalities, heart structure, heart pumping function, vascular function, and whether a food impaction is resolved without endoscopic removal.[2][3][4][5][6] These are important because they show how clinical trials can focus on both benefits and safety.[2][3][4][5][6]
Study details by trial
The completed Glyceryl Trinitrate study is the PROMISE study, which tested a precision-medicine approach in MINOCA and followed patients for 1 year using the Seattle Angina Questionnaire.[1] Its enrollment was 145 participants, and it was a Phase 3 interventional study.[1]
Other interventional studies in the data include the TREASURE trial in subclinical heart failure, the ORESA study in stable angina, BELAFENDO in kidney transplant patients, the STENO INTEN-CT study in type 2 diabetes, and a study of nitroglycerin for esophageal food impaction.[2][3][4][5][6]
- TREASURE trial: Phase 3, authorised, 130 people, studying subclinical heart failure and cardiac remodeling outcomes.[2]
- ORESA study: Phase 3, suspended, 769 people, studying stable angina and exercise duration.[3]
- BELAFENDO: Phase 3, authorised, 44 people, studying kidney transplant patients and blood vessel function.[4]
- STENO INTEN-CT: Phase 3, authorised, 7300 people, studying type 2 diabetes and a composite cardiovascular endpoint.[5]
- Nitroglycerin for Esophageal Food Impaction: Phase 2, authorised, 88 people, studying whether food impaction can be resolved without endoscopic removal.[6]
