Exclusion Criteria

- any medical condition that may put the participant at increased risk with exposure to botulinum toxin type A, including diagnosed muscular dystrophy (eg, Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy), myasthenia gravis, Eaton-Lambert syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, mitochondrial disease, or any other significant disease which might interfere with neuromuscular function;
- participants with presence or history of any of the following within 3 months prior to the Day 1 visit that may indicate a vulnerable respiratory state per the investigator’s clinical judgment: aspiration pneumonia, lower respiratory tract infections, uncontrolled asthma, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or otherwise compromised respiratory function;
- permanent/persistent AF;
- has a known allergy or sensitivity to any botulinum toxin type A preparation;
- has a known allergy or sensitivity to medical adhesive (eg, ECG patch adhesive; hydrogel based adhesive); severe (> 55mm) atrial enlargement; left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 25%;
- presence or history of symptomatic atrioventricular block > 1st degree within the last 30 days;
- prior or concomitant therapy with Class I or III antiarrhythmic drugs unless proper washout was documented;
- botulinum toxin type A (of any serotype) use within 6 months of randomization;
- has been immunized for any botulinum toxin type A serotype as determined by participant medical history;
- preoperative need for inotropes/vasopressors or intra-aortic balloon pump;
- prior cardiac surgery;
- history of ablation for AF;
- planned ablation procedure for AF at the time of surgery;
- emergency surgery;
- impaired prognosis defined as EuroSCORE II greater than 7% perioperative mortality.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To compare the efficacy of AGN-151607 with placebo to prevent post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in participants who are undergoing open chest cardiac surgery;Secondary Objective: - To compare the efficacy of AGN-151607 with placebo to reduce AF burden in participants who are undergoing open-chest cardiac surgery <br> - To compare the efficacy of AGN-151607 with placebo to prevent POAF using alternative definitions for AF in participants who are undergoing open-chest cardiac surgery<br> - To compare the safety of AGN-151607 with placebo in participants undergoing open-chest cardiac surgery;Primary end point(s): Percentage of participants with at least 1 continuous atrial fibrillation (AF) episode = 30 seconds during the first 30 days post surgery;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: within the first 30 days post surgery
