Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Zinc Tablets - Nature's Own Australia
- Dose - 30mg once daily
- Duration - 8 weeks (4 weeks drug intervention and 4 weeks placebo)
- The mode of administration - oral tablet

Each subject will undergo treatment with Zibotentan and matched placebo for 4 weeks in a computer-generated random order (double-blind, crossover design) giving a total dosing period of 8 weeks. There will be a 2-week washout interval between the two treatment periods.

Participants will report the angina frequency through an angina diary.
The drug compliance will be assessed through drug tablet return.
Intervention code [1] 325158 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
The placebo capsules are identical green Size 000, hard gelatin capsules filled with microcrystalline cellulose. The capsules are packed in HDPE bottles with child-resistant caps and induction sealed for tamper evidence.

Compliance for taking test products will be assessed by asking each patient to return their
product containers and a tablet count performed at each visit.
Control group
Placebo

Outcomes

b) Secondary causes of angina including:
i. clinically significant anaemia (haemoglobin less than 100g/dL),
ii. uncontrolled atrial fibrillation (i.e. ventricular response rate more than 108 bpm),
iii. haemodynamically significant aortic stenosis (mean valve gradient more than or equal to 40mmHg).

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Statistician from the University of Adelaide will manage the randomization so all Investigators and Participants are blinded throughout the study and analysis period.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomisation using a randomisation table created by computer software (i.e. computerised sequence generation)
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?
The people receiving the treatment/s
The people administering the treatment/s
The people assessing the outcomes
The people analysing the results/data
Intervention assignment

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Efficacy
Zn’s anti-anginal efficacy will be undertaken by blinded analysis of the angina diary endpoints and other endpoints. The comparison between patients with respect to treatment order will be analyzed utilizing a linear mixed-effects model.
