ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Pharmacologic termination of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) often requires medically supervised intervention. Intranasal etripamil, is an investigational fast-acting, nondihydropyridine, L-type calcium channel blocker, designed for unsupervised self-administration to terminate atrioventricular nodal-dependent PSVT. Phase 2 results showed potential safety and efficacy of etripamil in 104 patients with PSVT.METHODS:
NODE-301, a phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluated the efficacy and safety of etripamil nasal spray administered, unsupervised in patients with symptomatic sustained PSVT. After a medically supervised etripamil test dose while in sinus rhythm, patients were randomized 21 to receive etripamil 70 mg or placebo. When PSVT symptoms developed, patients applied a cardiac monitor and attempted a vagal maneuver; if symptoms persisted, they self-administered blinded treatment. An independent Adjudication Committee reviewed continuous electrocardiogram recordings. The primary efficacy endpoint was termination of adjudicated PSVT within 5 hours after study drug administration.RESULTS:
NODE-301 accrued 156 positively adjudicated PSVT events treated with etripamil (n=107) or placebo (n=49). The hazard ratio for the primary endpoint, time-to-conversion to sinus rhythm during the 5-hour observation period, was 1.086 (95% CI, 0.726-1.623; P=0.12). In predefined sensitivity analyses, etripamil effects (compared with placebo) occurred at 3, 5, 10, 20, and 30 minutes (P<0.05). For example, at 30 minutes, there was a 53.7% of SVT conversion in the treatment arm compared to 34.7% in the placebo arm (hazard ratio, 1.87 [95% CI, 1.09-3.22]; P=0.02). Etripamil was well tolerated; adverse events were mainly related to transient nasal discomfort and congestion (19.6% and 8.0%, respectively, of randomized treatment-emergent adverse events.CONCLUSIONS:
Although the primary 5-hour efficacy endpoint was not met, analyses at earlier time points indicated an etripamil treatment effect in terminating PSVT. Etripamil self-administration during PSVT was safe and well tolerated. These results support continued clinical development of etripamil nasal spray for self-administration during PSVT in a medically unsupervised setting. REGISTRATION URL https//www.
