About this study

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel group, Therapeutic confirmatory Study.

The subject who has at least one episode of chest pain weekly and at least two episodes of chest pain during last week despite Amlodipine 5mg qd taking during 2 weeks will have treatment of Pletaal(Cilostazol) or Placebo for 4 weeks. Pletaal(Cilostazol) is taken 100mg oral tablets bid during 2 weeks after dosing of Pletaal(Cilostazol) 50mg oral tablets bid during 2 weeks. Placebo of Pletaal(Cilostazol) is used as the control medication.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for enrollment into the study :

  • Male or female 20 or over the age of 20 and under the age of 80.
  • Patients showing angina attack even while resting during the screening, diagnosed with vasospastic angina within the previous 3 months by meeting at least one of the 3 definitions, and accompanying insignificant (stenosis rate <50%) coronary artery disease documented by coronary angiography within the last 3 months [temporary antispastic agents (monotherapies or a combination of Verapamil and Nitroglycerin, anticoagulants) for coronary angiography are allowed]
  • Chest pain accompanied by at least 2 temporary, closely located ST elevations or depressions of 0.1mV or greater in the absence of ergonovine provoked coronary angiography.
  • Positive Intracoronary (IC) or Intravenous (IV) Ergonovine provocation test; ischemic ECG change accompanied by chest pain and spasm reducing the coronary diameter by 90% or more (at least 2 temporary, closely located ST elevations or depressions of 0.1mV or greater on 12-lead ECG)
  • Patients who reported at least 1 episode of chest pain in a week during amlodipine run-in period and at least 2 episodes in the final week.
  • Women who had been menopausal or sterile for at least 1 year, or women of childbearing potential who agree to practice a contraceptive measure throughout the clinical trial (e.g., hormonal contraceptives, intrauterine devices, condom + spermicidal agents, diaphragm + spermicidal agents, and partner's infertility)
  • Subjects who signed a written agreement indicating that they were given full explanations of the clinical trial and are willing to participate in the clinical trial.

Subjects presenting with any of the following will not be included in the study:

  • Subjects who used Cilostazol within 3 months before the screening visit
  • Subjects who used antiplatelet drugs, including Aspirin, Clopidogrel, Ticlopidine and Sarpogrelate, or PDE3 inhibitors of the same class as Cilostazol, such as Amrinone, Milrinone and Enoximone, after the initiation of the amlodipine run-in period
  • Subjects who used oral anticoagulants, such as warfarin, within 1 months prior to the screening visit
  • Subjects who used any of the following drugs within 1 week prior to the screening visit
  • CCBs apart from amlodipine
  • Beta-blockers or alpha-blockers
  • Oral nitrate, excluding nitroglycerin sublingual tablet, Nicorandil
  • Vitamin E preparations
  • Estrogens
  • History of myocardial infarction or with myocardial infarction mediated by vasospastic angina at the time of screening
  • History of a life-threatening vasospastic event (e.g., ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation or syncope)
  • History of stroke, intracranial hemorrhage or transient ischemic attack (TIA)
  • Hemorrhage (hemophilia, capillary fragility, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, urinary tract bleeding, hemoptysis, vitreous hemorrhage, etc.) or such predisposition (active peptic ulcer, hemorrhage suspected at Cilostazol administration for surgical wound within the last 3 months, proliferative diabetic retinopathy)
  • History of hypersensitivity to the ingredients of Cilostazol, amlodipine, dihydropyridines such as nitroglycerine, and nitrates
  • Severe aortic stenosis
  • History of shock
  • Hypotension with systolic pressure of below 90mmHg at screening
  • Severe anemia with hemoglobin 6.5g/dl or below at screening
  • History of glaucoma
  • ST change abnormality not interpretable on ECG at screening
  • Congestive heart failure with left ventricular ejection fraction <40% on echocardiography at screening or within the last 3 months
  • Atrial fibrillation or beyond moderate valvular heart disease
  • Left main coronary spasm suspected or confirmed by coronary angiography or ergonovine provoked coronary angiography
  • History of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
  • Heart rate >100 bpm at screening via vital sign: tachycardia
  • Uncontrolled hypertension with systolic pressure ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic pressure ≥ 100 mmHg at screening
  • Creatinine level ≥ 1.5 mg/dL at screening
  • AST or ALT > x3 ULN(Upper Limit of Normal) at screening
  • Platelet count < 100,000mm3 at screening
  • QT prolongation of QTcB > 450 msec in male and QTcB>470 msec in female subjects at screening
  • Women of childbearing potential with positive pregnancy test at screening
  • Women who did not agree to practice a contraceptive measure, pregnant or lactating women
  • Drug compliance of less than 80% during 2-week amlodipine run-in period
  • Subjects otherwise judged by the investigator to be inappropriate for inclusion in the trial
  • Subjects who used another investigational products within 2 months prior to the randomization
