About this trial

Atrial fibrillation is a common complication of both cancer and anticancer drugs but the consequences of such events remain poorly known and are not adressed in both phase III oncological trials and cardiological guidelines. The objective of this study is to create a prospective multicenter international registry of adult patients with an active cancer and experiencing atrial fibrillation to study major cardiovascular events occurrence during a 1 year follow-up.

at least 1 episode of atrial fibrillation (new onset AF occuring after cancer diagnosis or history of paroxysmal of persistant AF prior to cancer diagnosis and an AF recurrence after cancer diagnosis)

Disqualifiers
