Efficacy and safety of dronedarone across age and sex subgroups: a post hoc analysis of the ATHENA study among patients with non-permanent atrial fibrillation/flutter

Age and sex may impact the efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs on cardiovascular outcomes and arrhythmia recurrences in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We report on a post hoc analysis of the ATHENA study (NCT00174785), which examined cardiovascular outcomes in patients with non-permanent AF tr...

description Age and sex may impact the efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs on cardiovascular outcomes and arrhythmia recurrences in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We report on a post hoc analysis of the ATHENA study (NCT00174785), which examined cardiovascular outcomes in patients with non-permanent AF treated with dronedarone vs. placebo. Efficacy and safety of dronedarone were assessed in patients according to age and sex. Baseline characteristics were comparable across subgroups, except for cardiovascular comorbidities, which were more frequent with increasing age. Dronedarone significantly reduced the risk of cardiovascular hospitalization or death due to any cause among patients 65-74 [n = 1830; hazard ratio (HR) 0.71, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.60-0.83; P < 0.0001] and ≥75 (n = 1925; HR 0.75, 95% CI 0.65-0.88; P = 0.0002) years old and among males (n = 2459; HR 0.74, 95% CI 0.64-0.84; P < 0.00001) and females (n = 2169; HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.67-0.89; P = 0.0002); outcomes were similar for time to AF/AFL recurrence.
