    Abstract:
    Background Self-administration of investigational intranasal L-type calcium channel blocker etripamil during paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) appeared safe and well-tolerated in the phase 3 NODE-301 (Multi-Centre, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Efficacy, and Safety Study of Etripamil Nasal Spray for the Termination of Spontaneous Episodes of Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia) trial of adults with sustained atrioventricular nodal-dependent PSVT. The NODE-302 open-label extension further characterized etripamil safety and efficacy. Methods and Results Eligible patients were monitored via self-applied cardiac monitoring system for 5 hours after etripamil self-administration. The primary end point was time-to-conversion of positively adjudicated PSVT to sinus rhythm after etripamil treatment. Probability of conversion to sinus rhythm was reported via Kaplan-Meier plot. Adverse events were based on self-reported symptoms and clinical evaluations. Among 169 patients enrolled, 105 self-administered etripamil ≥1 time for perceived PSVT (median [range], 232 [8-584] days' follow-up). Probability of conversion within 30 minutes of etripamil was 60.2% (median time to conversion, 15.5 minutes) among 188 PSVT episodes (92 patients) positively adjudicated as atrioventricular nodal dependent by independent ECG analysis. Among 40 patients who self-treated 2 episodes, 75% had a significantly consistent response by 30 minutes; 9 did not convert on either episode, and 21 converted on both episodes (χ2=8.09; P=0.0045). Forty-five of 105 patients (42.9%) had ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event, generally transient and mild-to-moderate, including nasal congestion (14.3%), nasal discomfort (14.3%), or rhinorrhea (12.4%). No serious cardiac safety events were observed within 24 hours of etripamil. Conclusions In this extension study, investigational etripamil nasal spray was well tolerated for self-treating recurrent episodes of PSVT without medical supervision.
