  • prospective, registry-based, multicenter, diagnostic study and nested, randomized, controlled, open-label, blinded-endpoint (PROBE) basket trial
  • endotypes centrally adjudicated by a panel of blinded cardiologists
  • intention-to-treat

Study context

Population
Patients with clinically suspected Myocardial Infarction with No Obstructive Coronary Arteries (MINOCA) and one or more cardiovascular risk factors; patients with an index of coronary microvascular resistance (IMR) ≥ 25 randomizedplanned enrolment into the registry-based diagnostic study, n = 150 randomized · randomized (IMR ≥ 25) 150
Participants

Planned comparison
eplerenone or standard care without eplerenone
Primary endpoint
Within-individual change in NT-proBNP (primary outcome of the randomized trial), intention-to-treat
Follow-up
Baseline, 1 month, and 6 months
