E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3 escalating doses of intravenous K201 administered for up to 180 minutes on the rate of conversion to sinus rhythm, the changes in AF symptom score and safety parameters such as adverse event reporting, laboratory findings, vital signs and ECG data. To obtain plasma concentration data through 24 hours for K201 and the metabolite M-II for PK analysis |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a single intravenous infusion of K201 compared to placebo in a dose escalating manner on the following endpoints: • The proportion of subjects who convert to sinus rhythm for at least 1 minute through 4 hours after start of study drug infusion as documented by 2 sets if ECG data recorded at least 1 minute apart • Proportion of subjects in sinus rhythm at 4 hours from start of study drug • Time to restoration of sinus rhythm will be documented. • Mean change in subject symptom score from baseline to 4 hours after start of study drug infusion • Proportion of subjects with complete absence of symptoms (symptom score of 0) at 4 hours from start of study drug infusion.
Additional analyses will examine the changes from baseline and differences between doses for: • Heart rate and the RR, QRS, QT, QTcF, and QTcB intervals • Blood Pressure • AE’s and SAE’s, • Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and other documented arrhythmias • Clinical laboratory assays
