Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: 1
Flurpiridaz PET MPI (following off-study SPECT MPI)
Drug: PET MPI
Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection. All participants received 2 IV boluses of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection in a large peripheral vein: 1 at rest and 1 during stress. The dosages of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection administered at rest and during stress conditions did not exceed a total of 14 mCi (520 MBq) for an individual participant.

Drug: SPECT MPI
SPECT imaging was used 99mTc-based myocardial tracers. SPECT agents utilised for the purposes of this clinical study was administered as per American Society of Nuclear Cardiology or European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging standards, where applicable. All participants undergone SPECT MPI.

Drug: Pharmacological stress agents
Pharmacologic stress agents were restricted to the following 3 agents, as permitted by local marketing authorisations and availability: adenosine, dipyridamole, and regadenoson. Administration was through an IV line.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Sensitivity and Specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI) in the Detection of Significant Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) as Defined by Cardiac Catheterization [ Time Frame: Up to 60 days ]
    Sensitivity was defined as true positives (TP)/(TP+false negatives [FN]). TP was participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard and FN was participants with normal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard. Specificity defined as true negatives (TN)/(TN+ false positives [FP]). TN was participants with normal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard and FP was participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard. Truth standard was presence of CAD as evidenced by presence of stenosis of >=50 percent (%) in >=1 coronary artery or major branch of a coronary artery as determined by quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) analysis. Participants were considered to have CAD if QCA revealed >=50% stenosis of >=1 major coronary artery or major branch. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated for 3 readers and majority rule using each participant judgement (positive or negative) by at least 2 of 3 readers.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Sensitivity and Specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection PET MPI Compared SPECT MPI for All Participants When the Diagnosis of CAD by ICA Was the Standard of Truth [ Time Frame: Up to 60 days ]
    Sensitivity:TP/(TP+FN). TP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard and FN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard. Specificity:TN/(TN+ FP). TN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard and FP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard. Truth standard was presence of CAD as evidenced by presence of stenosis of >=50% in >=1 coronary artery or major branch of coronary artery as determined by QCA analysis. Participants considered to have CAD if QCA revealed >=50% stenosis of >=1 major coronary artery or major branch. Sensitivity, specificity was calculated for 3 readers and majority rule using each participant judgement (positive or negative) by at least 2 of 3 readers. Sensitivity, specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) PET MPI compared to SPECT MPI with QCA as standard of truth at >=50% stenosis threshold for all participants was reported by reader and majority rule.

  2. Sensitivity and Specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection PET MPI Compared SPECT MPI for Female Participants When the Diagnosis of CAD by ICA Was the Standard of Truth [ Time Frame: Up to 60 days ]
    Sensitivity:TP/(TP+FN). TP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard and FN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard. Specificity:TN/(TN+ FP). TN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard and FP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard. Truth standard was presence of CAD as evidenced by presence of stenosis of >=50% in >=1 coronary artery or major branch of a coronary artery as determined by QCA analysis. Participants considered to have CAD if QCA revealed >=50% stenosis of >=1 major coronary artery or major branch. Sensitivity, specificity calculated for 3 readers and majority rule using each participant judgement (positive or negative) by at least 2 of 3 readers. Sensitivity, specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) PET MPI compared to SPECT MPI with QCA as standard of truth at >=50% stenosis threshold for female participants was reported by reader and majority rule.

  3. Sensitivity and Specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection PET MPI Compared SPECT MPI for Participants With Body-mass Index (BMI) >=30 Kilograms Per Square Meter (kg/m^2) When the Diagnosis of CAD by ICA Was the Standard of Truth [ Time Frame: Up to 60 days ]
    Sensitivity:TP/(TP+FN). TP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard and FN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard. Specificity:TN/(TN+ FP). TN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard and FP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard. Truth standard was presence of CAD as evidenced by presence of stenosis of >=50% in >=1 coronary artery or major branch of coronary artery determined by QCA analysis. Participants considered to have CAD if QCA revealed >=50% stenosis of >=1 major coronary artery or major branch. Sensitivity, specificity calculated for 3 readers and majority rule using each participant judgement (positive or negative) by at least 2 of 3 readers. Sensitivity, specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) PET MPI compared to SPECT MPI with QCA as standard of truth at >=50% stenosis threshold for participants(BMI>=30 kg/m^2) reported by reader and majority rule.

  4. Sensitivity and Specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection PET MPI Compared SPECT MPI for Diabetic Participants When the Diagnosis of CAD by ICA Was the Standard of Truth [ Time Frame: Up to 60 days ]
    Sensitivity:TP/(TP+FN). TP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard and FN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease positive by truth standard. Specificity:TN/(TN+ FP). TN:participants with normal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard and FP:participants with abnormal PET MPI and disease negative by truth standard. Truth standard was presence of CAD as evidenced by presence of stenosis of >=50% in >=1 coronary artery or major branch of coronary artery determined by QCA analysis. Participants considered to have CAD if QCA revealed >=50% stenosis of >=1 major coronary artery or major branch. Sensitivity and specificity calculated for 3 readers and majority rule using each participant judgement (positive or negative) by at least 2 of 3 readers. Sensitivity, specificity of Flurpiridaz (18F) PET MPI compared to SPECT MPI with QCA as standard of truth at >=50% stenosis threshold for diabetic participants was reported by reader and majority rule.
