About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Double Blind, Placebo-controlled, Randominzed, Multi-Center, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of T89 in Patient With Chronic Stable Angina Pectoris

The purpose of this study is to determine the anti-angina effect and dose response of T89, a 2-herb botanical drug product, in patients with chronic stable angina pectoris in the United States.

Read the detailed description

T89 is a modernized and industrialized version of a traditional Chinese herbal medicine. T89 was approved for marketing as a drug, for the treatment of chronic stable angina pectoris due to coronary heart disease, by the State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) of China in 1993. There were more than 2 billion doses have been prescribed or used, in about 10,000,000 subjects, in short or long-term administration worldwide.

The product is also marketed, as a drug, in Russia, South Korea, Mongolia, Singapore, Vietnam, and South Africa. The current study is to determine the anti-angina effect and dose response of T89 in patients with chronic stable angina pectoris in the United States.

T89 consists of Danshen (Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, RSM) and Sanqi (Radix Notoginseng, RN) as active constitutes, and using Borneol as transporting enhancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing T89 in people with Angina Pectoris, run by Tasly Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 15 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total Exercise Duration (TED) change from screen baseline value in Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT) on Standard Bruce Protocol at trough drug levels at the end of the 4th and 8th week of treatment compared to placebo. (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Dec 2012.
