About this study

Official title: A Phase III Study of the Conversion Efficacy and Safety of Repeated Intravenous Doses of RSD1235 in Subjects With Atrial Fibrillation or Atrial Flutter Following Valvular and/or Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of RSD1235 compared to placebo in the conversion of atrial arrhythmia to sinus rhythm in subjects following valvular and/or coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Read the detailed description

This multi-national, multi-center study is a double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial with 2 parallel treatment arms (1 active, 1 placebo) to assess the conversion efficacy and safety of 2 intravenous doses of RSD1235 in subjects with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter following valvular and/or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing RSD1235 in people with Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Flutter, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 22 sites in 6 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Dec 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 22 sites in India, Canada, Poland, Denmark, United States and 1 more country. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effectiveness of RSD1235 (time frame: 90 minutes post infusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00125320, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Dec 2007.
