Methods: Block randomization was performed to randomly allocate 750 patients into KA (376 cases) and control groups (374 cases). During an angina attack, the KA group received 3 consecutive sublingual sprays of KA (0.6 mL per spray). The control group received 1 sublingual nitroglycerin tablet (NT, 0.5 rag/tablet). Log-rank tests and Kaplan-Meier estimations were used to estimate the angina remission rates at 6 time-points after treatment (1,2, 3, 4, 5, and 〉5 min). Logistic regression analysis was performed to observe the factors influencing the rate of effective angina remission, and the remission rates and incidences of adverse reactions were compared for different Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) classes of angina. Results: The 5-min remission rates in the KA and control groups were not significantly different (94.41% vs. 90.64%, P〉0.05). The angina CCS class significantly influenced the rate of remission (95% confidence interval = 0.483-0.740, P〈0.01). In the CCS subgroup analysis, the 3- and 5-min remission rates for KA and NT were similar in the CCS I and IV subgroups (P〉0.05), while they were significantly better for KA in the CCS Ⅱ and Ⅲ subgroups (P〈0.05 or P〈0.01). Furthermore, the inciden0ce of adverse reactions was significantly lower in the KA group than in the control group for the CCS Ⅱ and Ⅲ subgroups (9.29% vs. 26.22%, 10.13% vs. 20.88%, P〈0.05 or P〈0.01). Conclusions: KA is not inferior to NT in the remission of angina. Furthermore, in CCS Ⅱ and Ⅲ patients, KA is superior to NT, with a lower incidence of adverse reactions.

Materials and Methods: Six hundred patients with angina after PCI(AAP) were randomly assigned to an experimental group and a control group(n = 300 in each group) and received basic treatment with KXA or basic treatment(respectively) for 8 weeks. The Seattle Angina Questionnaire(SAQ) and visual analog scale(VAS) scores of the two groups during the screening period and five follow-up periods were compared. Results: A total of 179 patients were included in this interim report, including 85 in the experimental group and 94 in the control group. Among the five-dimensional scores of the SAQ, the improvement in the angina frequency and quality of life scores in the experimental group was better than those in the control group after treatment(P < 0.01), and the difference in scores of the remaining dimensions was not statistically significant(P > 0.01). The difference in VAS scores between the two groups was not statistically significant(P > 0.01). No obvious adverse reactions were observed between the two groups. Conclusions: KXA can reduce the frequency of AAP and improve patients’ quality of life.展开更多
