Acute Procedural Success was defined as a demonstration of electrical isolation in ≥ 3 Pulmonary Veins (PVs) at the conclusion of the first protocol-defined cryoablation procedure. APS was decided at the end of the procedure the mean time was calculated for the time frame.
Subjects that did not have or were free of CTF. CTF was defined as the occurence of an Atrial Fibrillation (AF) intervention, use of non-study AF drug therapy, or the occurence of detectable AF which is is defined as an episode of AF, documented in a tracing, and lasting more than 30 seconds, occurring during a Non Blanked Follow-up Period.
Treatment Success was defined as Acute Procedure Success (APS) and freedom from Chronic Treatment Failure (CTF) for Experimental Subjects, and freedom from CTF for Control Subjects. Under this pre-specified definition of Treatment Success, Experimental Subjects must have had APS and remained free of CTF during the 12-month follow-up duration, while Control Subjects must have remained free of CTF during the 12-month follow-up duration.
Subjects that did not have or were free of MAFEs. MAFEs were serious adverse events categorized as cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or hospitalization for AF recurrence/ablation, flutter ablation, embolic events, heart failure, hemorrhage or anti-arrhythmic drug treatment.
Subjects that had CPEs. CPEs were device- or procedure-related serious adverse events (SAE) categorized as access site complications, cardiac damage, pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis, embolic complications, arrhythmias, unresolved phrenic nerve palsy and death.
| Arm | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Experimental | EXPERIMENTAL | Experimental subjects received cryoablation intended to isolate the pulmonary veins and ablate arrhythmia foci. If necessary, experimental subjects were allowed a previously failed Study Atrial Fibrillation Drug (AF Drug). |
| Control | ACTIVE_COMPARATOR | Control Subjects were treated with an AF Drug (flecainide, propafenone, or sotalol) that they had not previously failed. |

Flecainide or Sotalol or Propafenone is used for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, a condition characterized by episodes of irregular heart rhythm. It is being studied as a small molecule therapy in a Phase 3 clinical trial for this cardiovascular indication.
Flecainide or Sotalol or Propafenone is being developed by Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a company traded on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol RYTM. The drug is currently in Phase 3 clinical development for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Flecainide or Sotalol or Propafenone is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by regulatory authorities and is still undergoing clinical trials to evaluate its safety and efficacy for treating paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Flecainide or Sotalol or Propafenone is associated with one completed Phase 3 clinical trial, identified as NCT00523978. This trial, titled 'A Clinical Study of the Arctic Front Cryoablation Balloon for the Treatment of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation,' enrolled 245 participants in the United States and Canada.
No, Flecainide or Sotalol or Propafenone is not the same as the Arctic Front Cryoablation Balloon. The clinical trial NCT00523978, which studies the cryoablation balloon, includes Flecainide or Sotalol or Propafenone as an active comparator. The drug itself is a small molecule therapy, distinct from the balloon device.
