Exercise Therapy for Women With ANOCA

Angina is a feeling of chest pain or discomfort which can happen if there is reduced blood flow to the heart. Patients can experience angina with no obstructive coronary arteries (ANOCA) which is a difficult condition to treat (ie relieve angina) since few randomised, controlled therapy trials have been undertaken for ANOCA. Until now, angina has been mainly studied in men even though women are at least two-fold more likely than men to experience ANOCA. In 2023, a Scientific Statement from the American Heart Association affirmed that resistance exercise training can improve or maintain muscle mass and strength and confer favourable physiological and clinical effects on cardiovascular disease and risk factors. Resistance exercise has not been assessed in ANOCA and it offers an important opportunity to study non drug alternatives to treatment for women. This study will use a resistance based exercise programme to investigate if symptoms of ANOCA can be improved in women. It will recruit at least 76 patients (maximum 152 patients) across 13 hospitals in the UK and the Netherlands. The study will use a randomised wait list control design. This means all participants will be offered the intervention, but the randomisation will decide when they undergo it. It is part of a platform of trials for women with ANOCA. We are also setting up a drug study called ANOCA Therapy and a cohort study called ANOCA- Diagnosis.

Study Targeting Myocardial Perfusion and Symptom Relief in Women With SGLT2 Inhibitors (STRONG)

The goal of this clinical trial is to that Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors treatment will improve Coronary Microvascular Disease with anginal symptoms associated with non-obstructive coronary disease in women. The main questions it aims to answer are: Aim 1: Test the hypothesis that Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors treatment improves coronary microvascular disease in women with no evidence of epicardial obstructive coronary artery disease. Aim 2: Test the hypothesis that Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors treatment improves angina symptoms and other quality of life measurements associated with the improvement of CFR. AIM 3: Identify the effect of Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition on inflammation pathways and markers of systemic Research will compare Brezavvy to placebo Participants will: * Take study drug or placebo for 12 weeks * Stress Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging * 12 lead electrocardiograms * Complete questionnaires

Inorganic Nitrate as a Treatment for ANOCA: NO-ANOCA

The purpose of this study is to see if inorganic nitrate in the form of beetroot juice helps blood flow and physical fitness in women with ANOCA and CMD. The main questions it aims to answer are: AIM 1: Test the hypothesis that fourteen days of nitrate rich beetroot juice will increase cardiac perfusion and improve quality of life compared to placebo. AIM 2: Test the hypothesis that fourteen days of nitrate rich beetroot juice will increase physical fitness and reduce angina and dyspnea symptoms compared to placebo. Exploratory AIM 3: Test the hypothesis that fourteen days of nitrate rich beetroot juice will improve vascular health and function. Participants will: * Take study beverage for 4 weeks total. * Stress Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and 12 lead electrocardiograms * Complete questionnaires * Cycling exercise test * Non invasive vascular testing * Blood draws

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Angina Patients With Non-obstructive Coronary Artery Disease (ANOCA-CMD)

The goal of this observational study is to explore the incidence and effect on prognosis of coronary microvascular dysfunction in patients present of stable anginal symptoms, a clinical indication for invasive coronary angiography, and no hemodynamically significant epicardial coronary artery disease, defined as fractional flow reserve (FFR) \>0.80.
