Overview

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of eleclazine (GS-6615) compared to placebo on the overall occurrence of appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) interventions (antitachycardia pacing [ATP] or shock) in adults with ICD or cardiac resynchronization therapy-defibrillator (CRT-D).

Inclusion Criteria

  • Have an ICD or CRT-D implanted for primary or secondary prevention and at least one ICD intervention for ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF) \[shock or ATP\] within 60 days prior to screening or a documented VT/VF episode (prior to implantation) within 60 days prior to screening
  • Use of highly effective contraception methods if female of childbearing potential or sexually active male
  • Must be hemodynamically stable

Exclusion Criteria

  • New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class IV heart failure
  • Myocardial infarction, unstable angina, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 4 weeks prior to screening or during the screening period before randomization
  • Hemodynamically significant primary obstructive valvular disease
  • History of congenital heart disease
  • Inherited arrhythmia such as Brugada syndrome. Individuals with long QT syndrome Type 3 (LQT-3) or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) may be considered.
  • Individuals who are being considered for cardiac transplantation and are on a cardiac transplant list
  • History of seizures or epilepsy
  • Cardiac ablation within 3 months prior to screening or planned cardiac ablation during the study
  • Severe renal impairment
  • Abnormal liver function tests

Arms & Interventions

Eleclazine 3 mg

Experimental

Participants will receive a single loading dose of eleclazine 30 mg on Day 1, followed by eleclazine 3 mg daily as maintenance for up to approximately 20 months.

Intervention: Eleclazine (Drug)

Eleclazine 6 mg

Experimental

Participants will receive a single loading dose of eleclazine 30 mg on Day 1, followed by eleclazine 6 mg daily as maintenance for up to approximately 20 months.

Intervention: Eleclazine (Drug)

Placebo

Placebo Comparator

Participants will receive a single loading dose of placebo to match eleclazine on Day 1, followed by placebo to match eleclazine once daily for up to approximately 20 months.

Intervention: Placebo to match eleclazine (Drug)
