The lethality of torsades de pointes (TdP) by drugs is one of main reasons that some drugs were withdrawn from the market. In order to assess drug-induced TdP risks, a model of cardiac ionic current suppression in human ventricular myocytes (ToR-ORd model), combined with the maximum effective free therapeutic plasma concentration or the maximum effective free therapeutic myocyte concentration was often used, with the latter proved to be more relevant and more accurate. We aimed to develop a whole-body physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model, incorporated with a human cardiomyocyte pharmacodynamic (PD) model, to provide a comprehensive assessment of drug-induced TdP risks in normal and specific scenarios.

What Is This Summary About?: Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are a type of medication delivered via an inhaler device that are commonly used in the treatment of asthma. ICS can also be used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressive respiratory condition in which the lungs become worse over time. However, unlike in asthma, ICS are only effective in a small proportion of people with COPD.

Purpose: To determine the clinical and economic impact of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) withdrawal in Spanish patients with COPD receiving triple therapy (TT) with ICS, long-acting β-agonist (LABA), and long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA).
Patients And Methods: This was an observational, retrospective study of BIG-PAC database medical records. Patients aged ≥40 years receiving TT from 2016 to 2018 were followed for 1 year.

Background: Respiratory disease is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF), and many different therapies are used by people with CF in the management of respiratory problems. Bronchodilator therapy is used to relieve symptoms of shortness of breath and to open the airways to allow clearance of mucus. Despite the widespread use of inhaled bronchodilators in CF, there is little objective evidence of their efficacy.

Drug side effects are one of the main reasons for treatment withdrawal during clinical trials. Reactive oxygen species formation is involved in many of the drug side effects, mainly by interacting with the components of the cellular respiration. Thus, the early detection of these effects in the drug discovery process is a key aspect for the optimization of pharmacological research.
