Biological Obstacles for Identifying In Vitro-In Vivo Correlations of Orally Inhaled Formulations

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2019
Oral inhalation of drugs is the classic therapy of obstructive lung diseases. In contrast to the oral route, the link between in vitro and in vivo findings is less well defined and predictive models and parameters for in vitro-in vivo correlations are ...

Control of Collagen Deposition in Mammalian Lung

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1995
This review considers the mechanisms controlling collagen deposition in mammalian lung in five different states: normal development, fibrosis, erosion, pneumonectomy, and the steady state. Deposition is the net result of positive and negative processes.

Lung Deposition and Pharmacokinetics of Nebulized Cyclosporine in Lung Transplant Patients [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Aerosol Medicine and Pulmonary Drug Delivery, 2014
Inhaled cyclosporine (CsA) is being investigated as a prophylaxis for lung transplant rejection. Lung deposition and systemic exposure of nebulized CsA in lung transplant patients was evaluated as part of the Phase 3 cyclosporine inhalation solution (CIS) trial (CYCLIST).Ten patients received 300 mg of CIS (62.5 mg/mL CsA in propylene glycol) admixed ...
