Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Primary Objective:

\- To assess the efficacy of dronedarone versus placebo for the control of ventricular rate in patients with permanent Atrial Fibrillation (AF).

Secondary Objective:

* To assess the safety and tolerability of dronedarone after repeated oral doses of 300 mg, 400 mg, or 600 mg twice daily in the selected population.
* To document SR33589 and SR35021 trough plasma levels at steady state.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study period per patient is approximatively 1 month broken down as follows:

* Screening period up to 7 days,
* Treatment period of 14 days,
* Follow-up period of 10 days.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients of aged 20 years or more.
* Permanent Atrial Fibrillation \[AF\] (defined as duration of AF \> 6 months) for which cardioversion is not considered and with resting ventricular heart rate ≥ 80 bpm at screening.

Exclusion Criteria

* Unstable angina pectoris.
* History of torsades de pointes.
* Prolonged QT corrected interval (≥ 500 ms).
* Third degree atrioventricular block (AVB) on the screening ECG while in AF or, documentation on previous ECGs while in sinus rhythm of PR-interval \> 0.28 sec or high degree AVB (2nd degree or higher) or, significant sinus node disease (documented pause ≥ 3 sec) - without a permanent pacemaker implanted.
* Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) of New York Heart Association classification (NYHA) class IV or recent (within 1 month prior to randomization) unstable NYHA class III.
* Treatment with other class I or III anti-arrhythmic drugs.
* Patients treated with amiodarone during the 4 weeks preceding randomization.
* Clinically relevant haematologic, hepatic, gastro-intestinal, renal, pulmonary, endocrinologic (in particular thyroid) or psychiatric disease.
* Hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia must be corrected before randomization.
