Brief Summary:
Many patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) experience persistent tachycardia with episodes of rapid ventricular rate despite chronic treatment to reduce ventricular rate. The objectives of this study were to demonstrate the superiority of a nasal spray of etripamil over placebo in reducing ventricular rate in patients with AF; and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of etripamil nasal spray in participants with AF.
Detailed Description:
This was a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of etripamil nasal spray in participants with AF. This study included Screening, the Treatment Period (Screening and Treatment Period occur on the same day) and safety follow-up procedures.
Each participant received placebo or 70 mg of etripamil intranasally; treatment were randomized in a 1:1 ratio, to yield 50 evaluable participants with AF in 2 groups of 25.
Participants with AF were selected by the Investigator. The screening procedures included obtaining informed consent, a review of inclusion/exclusion criteria, a complete physical examination, and recording of any concomitant medications.
After screening procedures were complete, eligible participants were randomized to receive etripamil or placebo. Heart rate was measured continuously via Holter Electrocardiogram (ECG) from at least 10 minutes prior to dosing to 6 hours after study drug administration. Participants had to exhibit a rapid ventricular rate (≥110 bpm measured during 1 minute) on the Holter report prior to drug administration in order to receive the study drug. Beyond 60 minutes after study drug administration, medical care was offered in accordance with the standard of care and the participant was discharged from the clinic, while still wearing the Holter device.
Participants underwent a safety follow-up assessment and return the Holter device approximately 24 hours post-dose. Participants were contacted by phone 7 days post-dosing for safety follow-up.
