About this study

Official title: EURopean Trial In Atrial Fibrillation or Flutter Patients Receiving Dronedarone for the maIntenance of Sinus Rhythm (EURIDIS)

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

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

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

Read the 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

Being tested
Dronedarone (SR33589), placebo
Keywords
Atrial Fibrillation, Atrial Flutter, Arrhythmia, Anti-Arrhythmia agents
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

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

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. - AF/AFL related symptoms collected at the time of ECG/TTEM recording,

  2. - mean ventricular rate during AF/AFL at first recorded AF/AFL recurrence (12-lead ECG or TTEM)

  3. - time from presumed study drug near steady state defined as D5 midnight to first documented AF/AFL recurrence as indicated by ECG/TTEM recording.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dronedarone (SR33589) in people with Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Flutter, run by Sanofi at 12 sites in 12 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 2 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 9 Feb 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, France and 7 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

The primary endpoint of the study is the time from randomisation to first documented AF/AFL recurrence. 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 NCT00259428, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 9 Feb 2010.
