NCT ID NCT07519161

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether two heart medications, metoprolol and amiodarone, can prevent new-onset atrial fibrillation (AFib) in people who develop minor rhythm issues after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). About 198 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the drugs or to observation only. The study will track who develops AFib over 90 days and monitor for side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Metoprolol succinate and amiodarone
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a clear drug strategy to prevent atrial fibrillation after TAVR, reducing stroke and hospitalization risk.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (198 people) with no phase designation. Both drugs have known side effects, and the results may not apply to all patients.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 198 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Undergoing TAVR for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (defined as aortic valve area \< 1.0 cm², mean gradient ≥ 40 mmHg, or peak jet velocity ≥ 4.0 m/s). 2. Sinus rhythm confirmed by a 24-hour Holter monitor within 72 hours pre-TAVR. 3. Post-TAVR (within 24 hours) Holter monitoring or continuous telemetry reveals either: * ≥1,000 premature atrial contractions (PACs) per 24 hours; OR * Episodes of atrial tachycardia lasting 3 to 30 seconds. 4. Provided written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Known history of paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation/flutter prior to TAVR. 2. Presence of other significant arrhythmias pre-TAVR (e.g., \>1,000 premature ventricular contractions/24h, Mobitz Type I second-degree AV block or higher, sick sinus syndrome). 3. Current use of antiarrhythmic drugs (including beta-blockers, amiodarone, propafenone) prior to randomization. 4. Concurrent participation in another investigational device or drug study that could confound results. 5. Contraindications to amiodarone or metoprolol (e.g., severe bradycardia, cardiogenic shock, thyroid dysfunction, severe liver disease, QT prolongation). 6. Undergoing any other concurrent cardiac surgical procedure.
