62 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Anti-anginal drugs relieve ischemia and symptoms by reducing myocardial oxygen demand by reducing heart rate and or contractility (beta-blockers, phenylalkylamine and benzothiazepineate classes of calcium antagonists) or vasodilatation of the venous system (fall in pre-load) and coronary vessels. Late sodium channels remain open for longer in the presence of myocardial ischaemia. Ranolazine, a novel anti-anginal agent, acts by inhibiting the inward late inward sodium current (INaL), reducing intracellular sodium accumulation and consequently intracellular calcium overload via the sodium/calcium exchanger. It is currently thought that this reduction in intracellular calcium reduces diastolic myocardial stiffness and therefore compression of the small coronary vessels. There is considerable animal data to support this theory. There are good theoretical reasons to postulate that patients with chronically occluded vessels may derive less benefit from conventional anti-anginal agents, particularly vasodilators. The ischemic myocardium, subtended by the occluded vessel, will already be subject to significant concentrations of paracrine vasodilators such as adenosine. Ranolazine, therefore, may on the basis of its mechanism of action, provide greater relief of ischemia in such patients than conventional anti-anginal agents.
The purpose of this study is to gather preliminary data to determine if ranolazine is a safe and effective treatment for the symptoms of myotonia congenital, paramyotonia congenita, and myotonic dystrophy type 1. The duration of the study is 5 weeks.
The purpose of this trial is to determine if patients suffering from diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain treated with ranolazine will have a greater reduction in pain compared to placebo. Hypothesis: From the prior clinical observations, and analgesic efficacy in the preclinical animal model of neuropathic pain, the investigators hypothesize that subjects randomized to ranolazine will show a greater reduction in diabetic neuropathic pain compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to look at the effects of the drug Ranolazine compared to Placebo on symptoms of chest pain or chest tightness (known as angina), exercise endurance and ability, and changes in blood flow to the very small arteries of the heart (known as coronary microvascular function) in patients who do not have significant blockages in their major heart arteries. Ranolazine is a drug that is already approved by the FDA for angina, but it may be particularly effective in people with disease in their tiny heart vessels (known as coronary microvascular disease). This trial aims to enroll 50 patients with angina who undergo baseline bicycle exercise testing with monitoring of the heart's electrical activity and oxygen consumption (known as cardiopulmonary exercise test) and coronary angiogram (taking pictures of the heart arteries through small hollow tubes placed through the wrist or groin). If severe blockages in the main arteries are not found then testing for coronary microvascular function will be performed. Subsequently, participants will then be randomized 50/50 to either Ranolazine or Placebo. After taking the study drug for 12 weeks, they will then repeat the cardiopulmonary exercise test and the coronary angiogram with testing for microvascular function.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of Ranolazine for the treatment chest pain from disease of small vessels of the heart also known as 'microvascular angina'.

This pilot clinical trial studies fludeoxyglucose F18 (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) in imaging patients with prostate cancer treated with ranolazine. Diagnostic procedures, such as FDG-PET, may help find prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread. Giving ranolazine may enhance FDG-PET imaging by increasing the amount of glucose available for uptake by the scan.

The primary objective is: * To estimate the effect of ranolazine administration on acute hemodynamics. * To assess safety of ranolazine acutely over 6 hrs in the catheterization lab and after 12 weeks of therapy * To assess changes in right ventricular function after 12 weeks of therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of severe renal impairment on the steady-state PK, as well as safety and tolerability, of ranolazine, compared to subjects with normal renal function.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the prophylactic effects of Ranolazine on new onset atrial fibrillation in post-operative coronary artery bypass graft and valve surgery patient population at Staten Island University hospital.
Ranolazine is an effective and remarkably safe agent for the treatment of patients with chronic stable angina, but its inhibition of voltage gated potassium channels and electrocardiogram (EKG) corrected QT (QTc) prolongation properties have lead many to question its safety when combined with antiarrhythmic drugs. The investigators have proposed a study to determine the safety of ranolazine in patients with chronic stable angina who also take amiodarone. And are conducting a prospective single-center randomized single-blinded placebo controlled trial to run out of our large cardiology practice setting at Cardiovascular Consultants of Nevada. The hypothesis is that there will be no difference in the ventricular arrhythmia burden. The primary outcome will be the measurement of ventricular arrhythmia episodes on serial holter monitor and other serially acquired recordings (such as electrocardiogram, pacemaker or implantable defibrillator (ICD) data, and stress test data) over a three month trial period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of steady-state ranolazine on the steady state PK of metformin in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of steady-state ranolazine 500 mg bid on the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of metformin in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of ranolazine and of low-dose dronedarone when given alone and in combination at different dose levels on atrial fibrillation burden (AFB) over 12 weeks of treatment. AFB is defined as the total time a participant is in atrial tachycardia/atrial fibrillation (AT/AF) expressed as a percentage of total recording time.
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients often develop cardiovascular complications, and cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in this population. Ranolazine's ability to treat angina without reducing heart rate or blood pressure makes it an important option for ESRD patients. The hemodialysis clearance of ranolazine is unknown. A single-dose pharmacokinetic study is needed to characterize ranolazine and its metabolites in ESRD patients on and off hemodialysis. Results of the proposed study will provide initial dosing estimates for a follow-up, multiple-dose pharmacokinetic study in this population.
The investigators hypothesize that ranolazine would decrease the incidence of recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) after electrical cardioversion of persistent AF. Patients with persistent AF who are candidates for electrical cardioversion will be randomized to either placebo or ranolazine after successful electrical cardioversion.
The purpose of the study is to see how effective a drug called ranolazine is in reducing the risk of ventricular arrhythmia and death in people with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). This drug will be used with standard medications that is routinely prescribed in enrolled patients.
This study enrolled participants with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) despite non-insulin antidiabetic therapy in addition to diet and exercise, and would have benefited from additional control of blood glucose levels. The study assessed the metabolic effects of ranolazine, including its effect in lowering glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and lowering glucose while fasting, and following a meal (postprandial). Participants were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive ranolazine or placebo, and were stratified by HbA1c ≤ 7.5% or \> 7.5%. Enrollment was to include no more than two-thirds of participants with baseline HbA1c ≤ 7.5%. Other than glucose values, efficacy endpoint results remained blinded during the study; for safety purposes, the investigator was to be alerted of severe hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. Participants were instructed to maintain logs of their physical activity/exercise (Subject Activity Assessment) and study drug dosing (Dosing Log).
