What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum QTcF

    Maximum of all QTcF values obtained for any given patient from randomisation until the intended end of the study drug period, day 10.

    Measured: During treatment days 2-10

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Adverse Events (AE)

    Number of patients who had at least one AE according to the definition in the study protocol

    Measured: During treatment days 2-10

  2. Estimated Cmax (Maximum Plasma Concentration) (PK Modeling) at Steady-state

    Population PK model parameter estimates derived from plasma concentrations of AZD1305

    Measured: During treatment days 1-10

  3. Compliance With Trans Telephonic Monitoring (TTM)

    Percentage of twice daily TTM recordings (individual compliance) transmitted and available for analysis

    Measured: During treatment days 1-10

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AZD1305 in people with Atrial Fibrillation, run by AstraZeneca at 18 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 26 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Denmark, Slovakia, Norway, Poland, Russia 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Jan 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Maximum QTcF (time frame: During treatment days 2-10). 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 NCT00643448, 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 26 Jan 2012.
