American-Australian-African Trial With DronedarONe In AF or AFL Patients for the Maintenance of Sinus Rhythm (ADONIS) - Full Text View

Purpose

To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo for the maintenance of normal sinus rhythm after electrical, pharmacological or spontaneous conversion of AF/AFL.

To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo on ventricular rate control in case of AF/AFL recurrence.

To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo on AF/AFL-related symptoms.

Primary Outcome Measures:

The primary endpoint of the study is the time from randomisation to first documented AF/AFL recurrence

Secondary Outcome Measures:

- AF/AFL related symptoms collected at the time of ECG/TTEM recording,
- mean ventricular rate during AF/AFL at first recorded AF/AFL recurrence (12-lead ECG or TTEM)
- time from presumed study drug near steady state defined as D5 midnight to first documented AF/AFL recurrence as indicated by ECG/TTEM recording.

Enrollment:	625
Study Start Date:	November 2001
Study Completion Date:	September 2003
Primary Completion Date:	September 2003 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Detailed Description:

This is a double-blind, parallel arm, placebo-controlled, multicentre, multinational, phase III study.

To be eligible, patients must be in normal sinus rhythm at randomisation and must have an ECG-documented history of recent AF/AFL reverted to normal sinus rhythm by electrical, pharmacological or spontaneous conversion.

Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:	21 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Patients of either sex aged 21 years or more, in sinus rhythm for at least 1 hour at the time of randomisation and with at least one ECG-documented AF/AFL episode in the last 3 months.

Exclusion Criteria:

MAIN CRITERIA (non-exhaustive list, see protocol for details):

Women of childbearing potential without adequate birth control, Pregnant women, Breastfeeding women, Congestive heart failure NYHA class III or IV, Conditions which increase the risk of severe antiarrhythmic drug side effects, Severe associated conditions.
