Safety Study of Tecadenoson to Treat Atrial Fibrillation - Full Text View

Sponsor:	Gilead Sciences
Information provided by:	Gilead Sciences
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00713401

Purpose

Assess the tolerability and safety of a rapid bolus of tecadenoson at different dose levels when given alone and in combination with a beta-blocker (esmolol) in patients with atrial fibrillation to control rapid heart rate. Explore the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects when given alone and in combination with beta-blocker (esmolol).
