104Evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single oral dose of vanoxerine compared to placebo, in a dose modification manner, on the conversion of symptomatic atrial fibrillation (a-fib) or flutter of recent onset to normal sinus rhythm.
Vanoxerine has important antiarrhythmic properties and may prove effective in converting AF/AFL to sinus rhythm in subjects with a history of AF. This is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, dose-modifying study in subjects who have been in symptomatic AF or AFL for more than 3 hours and less than 7 days as dated by symptoms, who have AF/AFL documented on ECG at the time of study drug administration, and who satisfy the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The primary objectives of the trial are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single oral dose of vanoxerine compared to placebo following oral administration.
single oral dose

Inclusion Criteria: provide written informed consent, male or female 18 years of age or greater; women of child bearing potential must use adequate contraception symptomatic AF/AFL for more than 3 hours and less than 7 days (168 hours), as dated by symptoms AF/AFL documented by ECG at the start of study drug administration Exclusion Criteria: Systolic blood pressure <100 mmHg. Average heart rate <50 bpm. Average QTcF (Fridericia correction) >440 ms. Average QRS interval >140 ms. Paced atrial or ventricular rhythm on ECG.

Received another intravenous Class I or Class III antiarrhythmic drug within prior 3 days. received amiodarone (oral or IV) in prior 3 months. Clinical evidence or history of acute coronary syndrome within 30 days prior to randomization. Aortic stenosis with aortic valve area equal to or less than 1.0 cm2. Rheumatic mitral stenosis with valve area of <1.5 cm2. Untreated hyperthyroidism. Acute pericarditis.
