Redefining Treatment Strategies for Optimal Medical Care in CAD COURAGE and MERLIN-TIMI 36
COURAGE Clinical Outcomes Utilizing Revascularization and Aggressive Drug Evaluation
COURAGE: Background and objective In patients with stable CAD • Elective PCI procedures are common in the US (~85% of all PCI) • PCI decreases angina frequency but long-term prognostic effects on CV events are not known • Antianginal agents also provide symptom relief whereas ACEIs, ASA, β-blockers, and statins have been shown to prevent MI and death COURAGE was designed to evaluate whether PCI plus optimal medical therapy, as initial management strategy, reduces risk of major CV events compared with optimal medical therapy alone in stable CAD patients Boden WE et al. N Engl J Med. 2007;356:1503-16.Boden WE et al. Am Heart J. 2006;151:1173-9.

COURAGE: Summary and implications • PCI added to optimal medical therapy did not reduce risk of death, MI, or other major CV events compared with optimal medical therapy alone • Findings reinforce existing clinical practice guidelines • Optimal medical therapy and aggressive management of multiple treatment targets without initial PCI can be implemented safely in the majority of patients with chronic stable angina, even those with objective evidence of ischemia and significant multivessel CAD Boden WE et al.

MERLIN-TIMI 36 Metabolic Efficiency With Ranolazine for Less Ischemia in Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes-Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction 36
MERLIN-TIMI 36: Background In non-ST-elevation ACS • Current management is designed to ↑myocardial O2 supply (antithrombotic therapy, revascularization) and ↓myocardial O2 demand (↓HR) • Ion current modulation is under evaluation in ACS management • Prolongation of the late Na+ current during myocardial ischemia may contribute to deleterious cellular effects • Ranolazine, an inhibitor of the late Na+ current, exerts an anti-ischemic action without any clinically significant effect on HR or BP in stable CAD patients, but has not been studied in ACS patients Morrow DA et al. JAMA. 2007;297:1775-83.
MERLIN-TIMI 36: Objective Non-ST-elevation ACS MERLIN-TIMI 36 was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ranolazine in reducing CV death, MI, and recurrent ischemia in ACS patients receiving standard therapy Morrow DA et al. JAMA. 2007;297:1775-83.
MERLIN-TIMI 36: Study design Patients with non-ST-elevation ACStreated with standard medical/interventional therapiesN = 6560 RandomizedDouble-blind IV/oral ranolazine Placebo Primary efficacy endpoint:CV death, MI, recurrent ischemia Safety endpoints:All-cause death, CV hospitalization, symptomatic documented arrhythmia, clinically significant arrhythmia on Holter during first 7 days Morrow DA et al.

MERLIN-TIMI 36: Major safety outcomes Morrow DA et al. JAMA. 2007;297:1775-83.
MERLIN-TIMI 36: Summary and implications • In patients with ACS, ranolazine added to standard therapy was associated with • No difference in composite efficacy endpoint of CV death, MI, or recurrent ischemia • No difference in safety endpoints of all-cause death, all-cause death or CV hospitalization, or symptomatic documented arrhythmia • Significant reduction in arrhythmias detected by Holter monitoring during first 7 days • Findings do not support use of ranolazine in ACS but add to previous safety data and provide additional support for ranolazine as antianginal therapy in stable CAD Morrow DA et al. JAMA. 2007;297:1775-83.
COURAGE, MERLIN-TIMI 36: Optimal medical therapy for patients with CAD • Establish aggressive treatment goals • Utilize intensive, multifaceted therapy to achieve and maintain treatment goals • Lifestyle modification • Risk factor reduction • Antianginal therapy
