Rhythm control is advised in recent-onset atrial fibrillation, and in highly symptomatic patients, also in young and active individuals. Moreover, rhythm control is associated with lower incidence of progression to permanent atrial fibrillation. Vernakalant is a relatively new anti-arrhythmic drug that showed efficacy and safety in recent-onset atrial fibrillation. Vernakalant is indicated in atrial fibrillation (⩽7 days) in patients with no heart disease (class I, level A) or in patients with mild or moderate structural heart disease (class IIb, level B). Moreover, Vernakalant may be considered for recent-onset atrial fibrillation (⩽3 days) post cardiac surgery (class IIb, level B). Although it is mainly indicated in patients with recent-onset atrial fibrillation and with no structural heart disease, it can be given in moderate stable cardiac disease as alternative to Amiodarone. Similarly to electrical cardioversion, pharmacological cardioversion requires a minimal evaluation and cardioversion should be included in a comprehensive management strategy for better outcome.","PeriodicalId":11326,"journal":{"name":"Drug Target Insights","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1177392819861114","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42796524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Zinbryta is a long-acting, self-administered monthly injection that was branded as a new MS drug for patients who needed a \"new option for treatment.\" It blocks interleukin-2 receptor alpha (CD25) and modulates T-cell expansion. The drug was withdrawn from the market in March, 2018 following 12 reports from Germany (9), United States (2), and Spain (1) following the development of \"inflammatory encephalitis and meningoencephalitis\" in patients on Zinbryta. Although cases of hepatotoxicity made news with Zinbryta earlier along this drug's postmarketing journey in the treatment of patients with MS, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) ordered a review of the risks of hepatotoxicity with Zinbryta use June, 2017; this analysis will focus on the pharmacovigilance data concerning the central nervous system (CNS) complications. The details of the CNS complications have been elucidated by EMA. Every drug failure provides an opportunity for learning, but it is also noteworthy that no FDA-approved MS drug in modern times has met with such an untimely, sudden, and inglorious exit.

There is minimal scientific validity in infusing the drug every 6 months particularly if CD20 cell counts are negligible in the peripheral blood.
