Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Apadenoson
In period 1, subjects will receive a clinically-indicated rest/stress gated SPECT-MPI with adenosine. In period 2, subjects will receive a rest/stress gated SPECT-MPI with apadenoson or the active comparator: adenosine.
|
Drug: Apadenoson SPECT-MPI
Apadenoson single bolus IV injection 100 or 150 ug
Other Name: DPC-A78445-00, DPH-068645-01, ATL146e, DWH 146e
Drug: Adenosine SPECT-MPI
Single IV infusion for 6 minutes at a rate of 140 µg/kg body weight per minute.
Other Name: Adenoscan
|
Active Comparator: Adenosine
In period 1, subjects will receive a clinically-indicated rest/stress gated SPECT-MPI with adenosine. In period 2, subjects will receive a rest/stress gated SPECT-MPI with apadenoson or the active comparator: adenosine.

- Presence of myocardial perfusion defect as based on SPECT-MPI [ Time Frame: Up to 2 hours after study drug administration in Period 1 and 2 ]
- Incidence and patient rated intensity of most commonly reported side effects (e.g. dyspnea, flushing, chest pain, headache) associated with use of adenosine compared to apadenoson in SPECT-MPI [ Time Frame: 1 hour after Period 2 study drug administration ]

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Senior) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- High pretest probability of CAD based on the ACC/AHA guidelines for relative risk, or past medical h/o CAD
Exclusion Criteria:
- Ingestion of a caffeinated or methylxanthine food substance (e.g. chocolate, cocoa) within 24 hours before receiving apadenoson or adenosine
- Treatment with dipyridamole within 24 hours, or theophylline, aminophylline, or pentoxifylline within 72 hours (or 4 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to receiving apadenoson or adenosine
- Acute MI, new onset of ischemia or PCI within 30 days prior to SPECT-MPI at either Period 1 or Period 2; or CABG within 90 days prior to SPECT-MPI at either Period 1 or Period 2
- Active severe asthma or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) which, in the Investigator's opinion, places the subject at risk for severe bronchoconstriction
- History or evidence of clinically significant cardiac condition and rhythm disorder, in the absence of a functioning permanently implanted pacemaker
- Hemodynamically significant valvular disease, outflow tract obstruction, or uncontrolled severe hypertension
- Current significant medical, surgical, psychiatric, or other illness or pathology that could potentiate any adverse pharmacological event associated with an investigational drug
- Subject with past medical history of hepatitis B or C, or recent hepatitis A
- Pretreatment hypotension (systolic BP < 90 mm Hg) or tachycardia (HR > 100 bpm)
- Known history of cerebral vascular accident or suspected transient ischemic attack within 30 days prior to signed informed consent
