摘要:
A method for delivering a therapeutic dosage of corticosteroid drug to the lungs, for treating a lung condition or disease. An aqueous suspension of sized liposomes containing the drug in liposome-entrapped form is aerosolized under conditions which produce aerosol particle sizes favoring particle deposition in a selected region of the respiratory tract, and the aerosol is administered in an amount which delivers the thereapeutic dosage level to the selected lung region.
摘要:
A liposome composition containing an entrapped cisplatin compound is described. The liposomes have a surface coating of hydrophilic polymer chains on inner and outer surfaces and an entrapped cisplatin compound. The compound is entrapped with substantially greater retention in the liposomes, when compared to liposomes lacking the polymer coating. A method of preparing the composition is also described.

摘要:
A method and system for treating bronchial constriction. The system includes a liposome composition containing a .beta..sub.2 -adrenoreceptor agonist in a liposome-entrapped form, and a device for aerosolizing a metered quantity of the composition. The drug in liposome aerosol form is substantially more effective in bronchodilation, over a substantially longer time, than the same amount of drug in free-drug aerosol form.
摘要:
A system and method for administering a drug, at a selected dose, via the respiratory tract. Spray-dried liposome particles containing the selected dose of the entrapped drug are released into the air in aerosolized form, either by entrainment in an air or propellant stream, or by release from a pressurized can containing a suspension of the liposomes in a fluorchlorocarbon solvent.
