Optimal Pharmacological Therapy in Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Patients Trial
Presented at
American College of Cardiology
Scientific Sessions 2005
Presented by Dr. Stuart J. Connolly
OPTIC Trial
Endpoints (1 year):
Occurrence of shock (appropriate or inappropriate)
OPTIC Trial
Presented at ACC Scientific Sessions 2005
412 patients receiving a St. Jude Medical dual chamber ICD,
with presence of one of the following: 1) spontaneous ventricular tachycardia (VT);
or 2) left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ≤40% with either spontaneous ventricular fibrillation (VF) or inducible VT or VF.
Randomized
Beta-Blocker Alone Metoprolol, Carvedolol, or Bisoprolol
Sotalol
160 mg/day
Beta-Blocker
plus Amiodarone
800 mg load plus
200 mg/day
Presented at ACC Scientific Sessions 2005
Baseline clinical characteristics were similar between the treatment groups, with 80% of patients having had a prior MI, 29% having inducible VT or VF and 71% spontaneous VT or VF.

Presented at ACC Scientific Sessions 2005
Mean number of shocks per patient was 4.32 in the beta-blocker alone group, 0.93 in the sotalol group, and 0.51 of the amiodarone plus beta-blocker group. Adverse events were similar in the three groups.

OPTIC Trial
Among patients receiving a dual chamber ICD for spontaneous or inducible VT or VF, sotalol therapy and amiodarone plus beta-blocker therapy were associated with reductions in shocks at 1 year compared with beta-blocker therapy alone.
The reductions in the amiodarone plus beta-blocker group were greater than the sotalol group.
The addition of amiodarone or sotalol was associated with reductions in shock without an increase in adverse events, suggesting these therapies may improve the quality of life in patients implanted with an ICD.
