Abstract
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening condition that causes respiratory failure. Despite numerous clinical trials, there are no molecularly targeted pharmacologic therapies to prevent or treat ARDS. Drug delivery during ARDS is challenging due to the heterogenous nature of lung injury and occlusion of lung units by edema fluid and inflammation. Pulmonary drug delivery during ARDS offers several potential advantages including limiting the off-target and off-organ effects and directly targeting the damaged and inflamed lung regions. In this review we summarize recent ARDS clinical trials using both systemic and pulmonary drug delivery. We then discuss the advantages of pulmonary drug delivery and potential challenges to its implementation. Finally, we discuss the use of nanoparticle drug delivery and surfactant-based drug carriers as potential strategies for delivering therapeutics to the injured lung in ARDS.
期刊介绍:
Pulmonary Pharmacology and Therapeutics (formerly Pulmonary Pharmacology) is concerned with lung pharmacology from molecular to clinical aspects. The subject matter encompasses the major diseases of the lung including asthma, cystic fibrosis, pulmonary circulation, ARDS, carcinoma, bronchitis, emphysema and drug delivery. Laboratory and clinical research on man and animals will be considered including studies related to chemotherapy of cancer, tuberculosis and infection. In addition to original research papers the journal will include review articles and book reviews.
Research Areas Include:
• All major diseases of the lung
• Physiology
• Pathology
• Drug delivery
• Metabolism
• Pulmonary Toxicology.
