Landiolol for Prevention of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Patients

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is the most common arrhythmia after cardiac surgery with incidences ranging from 20% to 40% with the consequence of increasing mortality, morbidity, and hospital length of stay, as well as increasing the costs to the health care system. To prevent POAF the use of beta-blockers is suggested by the EACTA and ESC guidelines. Despite the prophylactic use, the discontinuation of beta-blockers in the perioperative period is a known risk factor that contributes to the occurrence of POAF. Due to the short half time and the highly beta-1-selective properties of Landiolol, it could be possible to initiate a betablocker for prevention in the immediate postoperative setting, without adverse effects like hypotension or severe bradycardia as seen with other betablockers like Metoprolol or even sometimes Esmolol. Landiolol is already approved for the treatment of atrial tachycardias but is not yet approved for the use of prevention of POAF. In multiple previous studies the preventive potential of Landiolol in cardiac surgery could be proven in japanese study populations, with limitations due to limited sample sizes. In these trials the use of low-dose Landiolol effectively reduced the incidence of POAF without significant differences of increased side effects or in the hemodynamic stability compared to the placebo or standard of care groups. The primary objective of this prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase III trial is to prove that the postoperative application of low-dose Landiolol significantly reduces the incidence of POAF without increased adverse events or hemodynamic instability compared to the placebo group after cardiac surgery in a non-Asian population.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
