Using Cryoballoon Ablation as Initial Treatment for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation (Cryo-InitialAF)

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of using cryoballoon ablation comparing with anti-arrhythmic drug therapy as initial treatment for naive patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Atrial Fibrillation, Persistent Arrhythmias, Cardiac Drug: Antiarrhythmic drug including Propafenone, Sotalol, Dronedarone and Amiodarone Device: cryoballoon ablation Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
Subjects with persistent atrial fibrillation with no history of treatment with anti-arrhythmic drugs are randomized 1:1 to either an anti-arrhythmic drug or pulmonary vein isolation using the cryoballoon catheter.
