What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether dapagliflozin, a drug used for diabetes, can improve blood flow in the tiny vessels of the heart in people with angina (chest pain) but no blocked coronary arteries. Participants will take either dapagliflozin or a placebo daily for 180 days. The study measures changes in heart blood flow using MRI scans, and also looks at heart tissue health and structure. The goal is to see if this drug can ease symptoms and improve heart function in this condition.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Dapagliflozin (10 mg tablet) taken daily for 180 days, compared against a placebo.
What this could lead to
If it works, dapagliflozin could become a new treatment option to ease chest pain and improve heart blood flow in people with angina caused by tiny vessel dysfunction, not blocked arteries.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 2 trial with 120 participants, so results may not hold up in larger studies. Dapagliflozin can cause side effects like dehydration, urinary infections, or low blood sugar, and it may not improve symptoms for everyone.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participant is older than 18 years of age * Participant is willing and able to sign informed consent * Participant is willing to comply with the specified follow-up evaluations * Anginal Symptoms (chest pain, pressure, dyspnea on exertion, or anginal equivalents * Stable CMD treatment (ie: Guideline Directed Medical Treatment) for \>30 days prior to enrollment with no plans to change treatment during trial duration * Non-obstructive CAD: Patients with non-obstructive CAD (coronary narrowing of \<50%, and/or FFR ≥0.80) assessed by Left Heart Cath or CCTA within the past 5 years * Diagnosis of CMD based on prior testing within 5 years: 1. Invasive Coronary Functional Testing derived Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) \< 2.5 2. Stress Cardiac MRI measure myocardial perfusion reserve index (MPRI) \<2.5 3. Stress Positron Emission Tomography (PET) measured Myocardial Blood Flow \<2.5 Exclusion Criteria: * Clinical Diagnosis Type 1 or 2 diabetes on medical treatment * Clinical Diagnosis of Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) * Symptomatic Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) * History of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) * Severe valvular heart disease (any valve) * BMI \> 35 kg/m² * Cardiomyopathy based on infiltrative diseases (e.g. amyloidosis), accumulation diseases (e.g. haemochromatosis, Fabry disease), muscular dystrophies, cardiomyopathy with reversible causes (e.g. stress cardiomyopathy), hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy or known pericardial constriction * Current treatment with any SGLT-2 inhibitor * Hypersensitivity to SGLT2i * Impaired renal function (eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) * Symptomatic hypotension * History of genital mycotic infections * History of chronic urinary tract infections (UTIs) * Pre-menopausal women (last menstruation ≤ 1 year prior to informed consent) who: - are nursing or pregnant or - are of child-bearing potential and are not practicing an acceptable method of birth control, or do not plan to continue using this method throughout the study and do not agree to submit to periodic pregnancy testing during participation in the trial. Acceptable methods of birth control include tubal ligation, transdermal patch, intra uterine devices/systems (IUDs/IUSs), oral, implantable or injectable contraceptives, sexual abstinence (if allowed by local Authorities), double barrier method and vasectomized partner. * Contraindications to CMRI such as ferromagnetic implants and materials, Cochlear implants, implanted neurostimulators, severe obesity, and certain cerebral aneurysm clips, severe claustrophobia. * Comorbidities limiting life expectancy to less than one year * Any clinical condition that might interfere with the trial protocol or the Participant's ability to be compliant with the trial protocol (e.g., active alcohol or drug abuse, dementia). * Currently enrolled in another investigational device or drug trial, or less than 30 days since ending another investigational device or drug trial(s) or receiving other investigational treatment(s). Patients participating in a purely observational trial will not be excluded * Any other condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, may preclude the participant from safe participation in the study or compromise data integrity
