Andersen-Tawil syndrome

The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of flecainide monotherapy as compared with combination therapy of flecainide and beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers in patients with ATS and MEPPC. For MEPPC patients, quinidine will be compared with flecainide monotherapy in phase 2.

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 4

  1. One of the following two primary diagnostic criteria A. Clinical diagnosis of ATS. Genetically confirmed diagnosis (i.e. class 4 or 5 KCNJ2 variant) is not required B. Clinical diagnosis of MEPPC and carrier of associated class 4 or 5 SCN5A variant
  2. Has demonstrated a disease phenotype of ATS or MEPPC including ventricular arrhythmia burden at any point during follow-up on Holter monitor or other rhythm monitoring device (i.e. loop recorder, ECG patch)
  3. Is currently treated with a stable (at least 3 months) dose of flecainide
  4. Age ≥ 18 years

Exclusion criteria 11

  1. Pregnancy
  2. Contra-indication to study medication
  3. Significant structural heart disease (left ventricular ejection fraction <50%, history or signs of coronary ischemia, suspicion or definitive diagnosis of cardiomyopathy, or moderate/severe valve regurgitation)
  4. Suspicion or definitive diagnosis of another (heritable) arrhythmia syndrome, e.g. Brugada syndrome, early repolarization syndrome or catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia
  5. Presence of a short (<350 ms) or prolonged (>480 ms) heart-rate corrected QT interval on the resting ECG at baseline
  6. History of therapy refractory ventricular arrhythmia or intolerable side-effects on an adequate dose of any study medication, as determined by the treating cardiologist
  7. Serious known comorbid disease with a life expectancy of less than two years
  8. Ongoing medical condition that is deemed by the principal investigator to interfere with the conduct or assessments of the study or safety of the subjects
  9. Circumstances that prevent follow-up
  10. Inability to take orally administered tablets
  11. Inability to provide informed consent
