MediciNova Announces New Data and Results of MN-166 (ibudilast) in Chlorine Gas-induced Acute Lung Injury Presented at the 63rd Annual Meeting of the Society of Toxicology
In this study, single-dose and multi-dose treatments were evaluated.
- In this study, single-dose and multi-dose treatments were evaluated.
- The primary endpoint was the mean change in the pulmonary function measure PaO2/FiO2, which is the ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to fractional inspired oxygen.
- Additional endpoints included survival, lung mechanics, lung injury, and edema formation evaluated by chest x-ray.
- Cl2 gas concentration of 210 ppm x 30 min was expected to result in a 20 - 30% mortality rate (Fukuda 2015).
