简要总结

The ECTOPIA trial is a randomized, multicenter, clinical trial to assess elimination of ventricular premature beats (VPB) with catheter ablation versus optimal anti-arrhythmic drugs (AAD) treatment with flecainide/verapamil or sotalol.

详细描述

The ECTOPIA trial is a randomized, multicenter, clinical trial to assess elimination of VPB with catheter ablation versus optimal AAD treatment with flecainide/verapamil or sotalol. Due to the use of different AAD (with and without beta-blocking abilities) the investigators will be able to explore the secondary objectives. Finally, this study will assess safety of ablation of non-RVOT VPBs and long-term treatment with two different AAD.

入选标准

  • Patients willing and capable to provide written informed consent
  • Patients with frequent symptomatic VPB and/or nonsustained VTs with burden ≥ 5% on 24 hour Holter monitor AND
  • Absence of structural heart disease (excluded by echocardiogram) AND
  • Absence of underlying cardiac ischemia (ruled out by treadmill test, CT coronary arteries, nuclear scintigraphy or coronary angiography) AND
  • Patient is considered an acceptable candidate for catheter ablation treatment with a dominant morphology of VPB/VT origin judged by the treating physician.
  • For those already undergoing treatment, all antiarrhythmic drugs including digitalis must be discontinued during a 2-week washout period before entry to the study

排除标准

  • Wolff-parkinson-white (WPW) syndrome
  • Use of medication with risk of QTc prolongation (e.g. antidepressant, antiemetic), except for study medication sotalol.
  • Left ventricular dysfunction (LV ejection fraction <55%)
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate < 50 ml/min/1.73 m2
  • Hepatic impairment defined by a total bilirubin ≥ 2 times the upper limit (ULN) of normal, or alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) or aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT) ≥ 3 times ULN at screening
  • Untreated hypo- or hyperthyroidism or electrolyte imbalance
  • Untreated obstructive sleep apnea
  • Patients with history of myocardial infarction or bypass surgery

结局指标

主要结局

Successful therapy

时间窗: After 3 months

Number of patients reaching succesfull therapy defined as \>80% reduction of of VPB/VT burden after 3 months

次要结局

  • VPB/VT burden(3, 6, 12 months after intervention)
  • Change in VPB/VT burden(Before the intervention (baseline) and 3, 6, 12 months after intervention)
  • The impact in terms of total Quality of Life(3, 6, 12 months after intervention compared to baseline (before intervention))
  • Association between number of VPB/hour and heart rate (HR)/hour during 24-hours Holter- monitoring(At baseline)
  • Number of pro-arrhythmic effects, (non)-sustained VT or atrial flutter, in AAD arms with frequent visits and use of 24-hour Holter monitoring(3, 6 and 12 months after intervention)
  • QTc prolongation (sotalol) and QRS broadening (flecainide) with requiring frequent checks with standard ECG and/or treadmill test(4-6 weeks after first administration of AAD)
  • Complication rate of catheter ablation(Procedure and 3, 6 and 12 months after intervention)
  • Extended evaluation of left ventricular function with transthoracic echo (TTE) (including global longitudinal strain rate measurement)(Baseline, 6 and 12 months after intervention)
  • Absolute and relative difference in VPB/VT burden (%) from baseline, during treatment with sotalol versus treatment with flecainide/verapamil(3, 6 and 12 months after intervention)
  • Divide patients in three groups depending on HR dependency of VPB/VT and compare absolute and relative difference in VPB/VT burden (%) from baseline, during treatment with sotalol versus treatment with flecainide/verapamil(3, 6 and 12 months after intervention)
