From the Cardiome website: Patients with atrial fibrillation in the first stage of the study will receive a 300mg dose of oral RSD1235 or placebo twice per day. After the first 3 days, patients still in atrial fibrillation will be electrically cardioverted. Successfully cardioverted patients will continue to receive oral RSD1235 or placebo for the remaining 25 days and will be monitored throughout the dosing period. Multiple safety and preliminary efficacy parameters will be measured. Interim results from the study for the 300mg dosing group are expected in mid-2006. Final results including data from a 600 mg twice daily dose in the second stage will be available by the end of 2006. Cardiome anticipates initiating a Phase 2b study of oral RSD1235 in the second half of 2006. <I am not very confident if the 300mg dose will show good efficacy and I will be delighted if it does. I am not expecting any safety problems with the drug. Hope there won't be a selloff on monday> PS:I am invested in cardiome
