Conditions

Coronary Artery Disease

Brief summary

The primary objective of this study is to understand why different people respond differently to the medication Persantine. The effects of Persantine will be evaluated by performing echocardiograms, blood tests and by measuring the flow of blood in the arteries of the heart in patients undergoing a clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention.

Detailed description

Participants will receive three doses of Persantine intravenously for the research study. Before and after receiving the Persantine doses, patients will have an echocardiogram and coronary artery blood flow will be measured. Blood tests,measure the function of the adenosine transporter. In addition variations in the gene for the adenosine transporter will be evaluated.

Outcome results

Primary

To Determine if There is a Subgroup of Patients That Have an Abnormal Adenosine Transporter Expression, or Abnormal Adenosine Transporter Protein Function.

To determine if there is a subgroup of patients that have an abnormal adenosine transporter expression, or abnormal adenosine transporter protein function. All were responsive Study terminated due to difficulty enrolling

Time frame: 6-12 months

Population: All patients responded. Function and Expression of the Transporter were therefore not performed.~The study was terminated due to poor enrollment

Secondary

To Determine the Clinical Significance of Variations in Adenosine Transfer Function on Coronary Flow.

Time frame: 6-12 months

Population: The study was terminated due to poor enrollment
