Detailed Description

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.

    • 100mg oral tablets bid during 2 weeks after dosing of 50mg oral tablets bid during 2 weeks
  • Drug: placebo
    • 100mg oral placebo tablets bid during 2 weeks after dosing of 50mg oral placebo tablets bid during 2 weeks

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Experimental: group 1

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Chest Pain Frequency
    • Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4
    • Change of the chest pain frequency on the final a week after IP dosing from a week before IP dosing

Secondary Measures

  • Percent change of the chest pain frequency
    • Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4
    • Percent change of the chest pain frequency on the final a week after IP dosing from a week before IP dosing
  • Proportion of subjects without chest pain
    • Time Frame: 4 weeks
    • Proportion of subjects without chest pain on the final a week after IP dosing
  • total chest pain intensity
    • Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4
    • Change of the total pain intensity on the final a week after IP dosing from a week before IP dosing
  • average pain intensity(the total pain intensity/the number of pain)
    • Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4
    • Change of the average pain intensity(the total pain intensity/the number of pain) on the final a week after IP dosing from a week before IP dosing
  • total nitroglycerin sublingual consumption
    • Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4
    • Change of the total nitroglycerin sublingual consumption of the final a week after IP dosing from a week before IP dosing
