The advice is summarised as follows: ADVICE: following a full submission considered under the orphan medicine process amikacin liposomal nebuliser dispersion (Arikayce®) is not recommended for use within NHSScotland. Indication under review: Treatment of non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung infections caused by MycobacteriumaviumComplex (MAC) in adults
Challenges in achieving the guideline-recommended amikacin level for Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease. The addition of aminoglycosides to a macrolide-based regimen is recommended for refractory complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD). For intravenous amikacin (AMK) administration three times a week, the ATS/ERS/ESCMID/IDSA guidelines recommend targeting a peak serum concentration of 65
Intestinal obstruction caused by disseminated mycobacteriumaviumcomplex disease following solid organ transplantation: a case report. Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) is a common pathogen causing non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections, primarily affecting the lungs. Disseminated MAC disease occurs mainly in immunocompromised individuals, such as those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
Comprehensive Management Algorithm for MycobacteriumaviumComplex Pulmonary Disease in the Real-World Setting. The management of Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) is challenging due to limited efficacy and frequent adverse events associated with standard treatments. The 2020 guidelines from ATS, ERS, ESCMID, and IDSA provide recommendations, but real-world adherence is often
Tolerability and efficacy of Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease treatment in elderly patients. Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) is considered to be increasing worldwide. In Japan, the number of elderly MAC-PD patients requiring treatment is also expected to increase due to the aging society. However, reduced organ function in elderly patients makes it often
Intermittent versus Daily Therapy for Noncavitary MycobacteriumaviumComplex Pulmonary Disease: An Open-label Randomized Trial. : Patients with noncavitary nodular bronchiectatic (NB) complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) are treated intermittently three times a week, although no randomized controlled trials have been conducted comparing three times weekly to daily therapy. : To assess
A phase 1b clinical trial to determine the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of simian adenovirus and poxvirus vectored vaccines against Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex subspecies in patients with active Crohn's disease. Crohn's Disease (CD) is a chronic, debilitating condition hypothesised to be associated with Mycobacterium avium ssp paratuberculosis (MAP) infection. It is the causative
A marmoset model for Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease. Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex, is the most common nontuberculous mycobacterial respiratory pathogen in humans. Disease mechanisms are poorly understood due to the absence of a reliable animal model for M. avium complex pulmonary disease. The objectives of this study were to assess the susceptibility, immunologic
Phenotypic drug-susceptibility profiles and genetic analysis based on whole-genome sequencing of Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex isolates in Thailand. Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) infections are a significant clinical challenge. Determining drug-susceptibility profiles and the genetic basis of drug resistance is crucial for guiding effective treatment strategies. This study aimed to determine
Amikacin liposome inhalation suspension for Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease: A subgroup analysis of Japanese patients in the randomized, phase 3, CONVERT study. CONVERT, a randomized, active-controlled, global, Phase 3 trial demonstrated that patients with treatment-refractory Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) pulmonary disease were more likely to achieve culture conversion
Mavintramycin A is a promising antibiotic for treating Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex infectious disease. complex (MAC) is a serious disease that is mainly caused by infection with the non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), and . Seven new compounds, designated mavintramycins A-G (-), were isolated along with structurally related compounds, including amicetin () and plicacetin (), from the culture
The Impact of Trehalose Dimycolate on the Clinical Course of MycobacteriumaviumComplex Pulmonary Disease. Rationale The clinical implications of trehalose 6,6'-dimycolate (TDM) in nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease have not been studied. Objective To examine the presence of TDM in clinical isolates obtained from patients with Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) pulmonary disease (PD
Clinical and genomic features of Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex: a multi-national European study. The Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) comprises the most frequent non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in Central Europe and currently includes twelve species. M. avium (MAV), M. intracellulare subsp. intracellulare (MINT), and M. intracellulare subsp. chimaera (MCH) are clinically most relevant. However
Serum Cell-free DNA-based Detection of MycobacteriumAviumComplex Infection. complex (MAC) is the most common cause of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD), which exhibits increasing global incidence. Current microbiologic methods routinely used in clinical practice lack sensitivity and have long latencies, leading to delays in diagnosis and treatment initiation
"How do I manage disseminated Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) disease in people with HIV?". Advanced HIV disease (AHD) is increasing, with late presentation accounting for half of newly diagnosed people with HIV (PWH) in Europe. Mortality in late-presenting PWH remains high, and Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex (MAC) disease, among other opportunistic infections, presents several diagnostic
Phenotypic amikacin resistance may not indicate poor response to amikacin in Mycobacteriumaviumcomplex pulmonary disease. When using amikacin to treat complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD), a minimum inhibitory concentration resistance breakpoint of ≥64 mcg/mL is recommended. We explored whether amikacin resistance characterized by phenotypic drug susceptibility testing was associated
