Comparative toxicities and pharmacokinetics of intrathecal lipid (amphotericin B colloidal dispersion) and conventional deoxycholate formulations of amphotericin B in rabbits.

چکیده
The lipid formulation of amphotericin B, Amphotec (ABCD), has not been used intrathecally. After a single intrathecal dose or after four doses, conventionally formulated deoxycholate amphotericin B (AMB) (Fungizone) resulted in higher levels of amphotericin B in the cerebrospinal fluid of rabbits than did ABCD. Clinically and histologically, ABCD was about threefold less toxic than AMB after a single dose and 3- to 30-fold less toxic after multiple dosing. These data are encouraging for the potential use of ABCD as an intrathecal treatment.

Compartmentalized intrapulmonary pharmacokinetics of amphotericin B and its lipid formulations.
We investigated the compartmentalized intrapulmonary pharmacokinetics of amphotericin B and its lipid formulations in healthy rabbits. Cohorts of three to seven noninfected, catheterized rabbits received 1 mg of amphotericin B deoxycholate (DAMB) per kg of body weight or 5 mg of either amphotericin B colloidal dispersion (ABCD), amphotericin B lipid complex (ABLC), or liposomal amphotericin B (...

OBJECTIVES The pharmacokinetics of lipid-formulated amphotericin B (AMB), and of AMB that has dissociated from its lipid moiety and bound to lipoproteins in plasma, were separately determined in critically ill patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eleven patients required continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (CVVH). Five of them were treated with liposomal AMB (AmBisome) and seven with AMB colloid...

The distribution of the three currently available lipid formulations of amphotericin B (AmB) into bone marrow and fat tissue was evaluated in noninfected rabbits. Groups of four animals each received either 1 mg of AmB deoxycholate (D-AmB) per kg of body weight per day or 5 mg of AmB colloidal dispersion, AmB lipid complex, or liposomal AmB per kg per day for seven doses. Plasma, bone marrow, f...
متن کاملAmphotericin B lipid formulations and target-site penetration into human body fluids
Background Amphotericin B (AmB) lipid formulations have been introduced in antifungal therapy to reduce the toxicity of AmB. The lipid-associated fraction of liposomal AmB (LAMB), AmB colloidal dispersion (ABCD) and AmB lipid complex (ABLC) exhibit different compositions, structures, and particle sizes, which are reflected in different plasma pharmacokinetics. Antimycotic drug concentrations at...

The immunomodulatory effects of liposomal amphotericin B (LAMB), amphotericin B lipid complex, and amphotericin B colloidal dispersion (ABCD) on antifungal activity of human monocytes (MNCs), an important component of antifungal host defense, against Aspergillus fumigatus were compared to those of deoxycholate amphotericin B (DAMB). MNCs from healthy volunteers were incubated with 1 or 5 microg...
