Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled, Non-inferiority Trial Investigating Efficacy and Safety of Pulmonary Vein Isolation Alone for Recurrence Prevention Compared to Extensive Ablation in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This study examines non-inferiority of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) to extensive ablation; and reveals the effect of the presence or origin of AF trigger on outcomes of catheter ablation.
Study design The EARNEST-PVI trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label non-inferiority trial in which patients with persistent AF will undergo ablation. After providing written informed consent at each hospital, patients who are eligible for the trial will be randomized to either PVI alone or PVI plus additional ablation. Left atrial dimensions will be the only adjustment factor considered in dynamic allocation to avoid bias. Patients randomized to the PVI alone group will be treated with PVI, while patients randomized to the PVI plus additional ablation group will receive additional complex fractionated atrial electrogram or linear ablation after PVI. Ablation for AF triggers from non-PV foci, the cavotricuspid isthmus, clinical coexisting tachyarrhythmia such as atrial flutter (AFL), atrial tachycardia (AT), and supraventricular tachycardia will be allowed in both groups. Patients will be followed up 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the procedure. The primary endpoint of the study is the recurrence of AF documented by scheduled or symptom-driven ECG during 1 year after the procedure. "Recurrence of AF" is defined as the documentation of any atrial arrhythmia including AF, AFL, and/or AT lasting ≥ 30 seconds by ECG or other appropriate tests. The sample size and randomization are specified based on the concept of non-inferiority to achieve the primary objective. The recurrence rate of AF was assumed to be 40% in both groups and a non-inferiority margin of 10% was calculated by referring to the previous studies. Therefore, a sample size of 256 subjects in each group is required with a power of 80% and significance level of 5% considering some dropouts. The statistical evaluation will be carried out according to the intention-to-treat principle. ;
