  • The SAQAF Domain category standard-of-care patients started in are depicted on the vertical axis (100=no, 61–99=monthly, 31–60=weekly and 0–30=daily symptoms) and the category they finished the double-blind trial period in is depicted on the horizontal axis. For example, 68 standard-of-care patients began the study reporting ‘daily’ angina symptoms and 24 (35.3%), 33 (48.5%), 9 (13.2%) and 2 (2.9%) of these same patients reported having daily, weekly, monthly and no angina symptoms at the end of the trial.

  • EOT, end-of-treatment; SAQAF, Seattle Angina Questionnaire Angina Frequency.
