Intravenous lanadelumab for the treatment of moderately ill COVID‐19 patients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Kallikrein‐kinin system (KKS) dysregulation is hypothesized to play a pathogenetic role in COVID‐19‐associated pulmonary oedema. To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous lanadelumab, a monoclonal antibody that inhibits plasma kallikrein, in COVID‐19, we conducted a phase 2, open‐label, randomized‐controlled, proof‐of‐concept ...

The Prevalence and Implications of Polypharmacy in Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Polypharmacy is increasingly recognized as a relevant issue in diabetes care, but its prevalence and clinical relevance in individuals with type 1 diabetes remain underexplored. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of polypharmacy and to identify associated clinical and psychological factors. Participants were recruited from a tertiary diabetes

Characterizing Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia in a Hypertension Population Within the State of Florida Using Electronic Health Record–Based Data

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Hypertension is a known modifiable risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia (ADRD). However, it is unknown how variance in hypertension control, antihypertensive medications, and social determinants of health, such as social deprivation index (SDI), influence the risk of developing ADRD.

The role of endothelin-1 in pulmonary arterial hypertension. [PDF]

, 2014
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare but debilitating disease, which if left untreated rapidly progresses to right ventricular failure and eventually death. In the quest to understand the pathogenesis of this disease differences in the profile,

Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic Syndrome in People With HIV: An Emerging Frontier for Clinical Pharmacology

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
As antiretroviral therapy (ART) prolongs lifespans, people with HIV (PWH) face a new syndemic: Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic (CKM) syndrome. Yet CKM in PWH is poorly characterized. Inflammation, complex pharmacokinetic (PK) alterations, ART‐associated metabolic effects, and gut dysbiosis amplify risk. Managing CKM increases medication burden, thereby
