Cómo lo describe el promotor

En el documentoEn inglés, del registroA major factor in the respiratory health of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is acquisition of chronic Pseudomonas (P.) aeruginosa infections. The infection rate with P. aeruginosa increases with age and by age 18 years, 80% of patients with CF in the U.S. are infected. Liposomal amikacin for inhalation (LAI; Arikayce™) is a sterile aqueous liposomal suspension consisting of amikacin sulfate encapsulated in liposomes. This formulation of amikacin maximizes the achievable dose and delivery to the lungs of infected patients when delivered via a nebulizer. Because liposome particles are small enough to penetrate and diffuse through sputum into the bacterial biofilm, they deposit drug close to the bacterial colonies (Meers, et al., 2008) (Clancy, et al., 2013), thus improving the bioavailability of amikacin at the infection site. The clinically achievable doses of amikacin in the LAI formulation can effectively increase the half-life of the drug in the lungs, and decrease the potential for systemic toxicity. LAI offers several advantages over current therapies in treating patients with CF with chronic infection caused by P. aeruginosa.
