TL;DR
Experts developed guidelines to manage side effects of a new treatment for a lung disease caused by Mycobacterium avium complex.
Contribution
A multidisciplinary expert consensus provides practical recommendations for managing adverse events of ALIS in MAC-LD patients.
Findings
A multidisciplinary team approach is recommended to improve treatment adherence.
Expert opinion-based strategies are proposed due to limited published data.
Patient education and clinical team involvement are emphasized for successful AE management.
Abstract
Amikacin liposome inhalation suspension (ALIS), a nebulized formulation of amikacin, is the first treatment approved in the United States, as part of a combination therapy, for adults with refractory Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease (MAC-LD) who have limited or no alternative treatment options. In clinical studies, ALIS treatment was associated with adverse events (AEs) of mild or moderate severity which led to treatment discontinuation in up to 24.4% of patients. In clinical practice, inadequate management of AEs may lead to decreased treatment adherence and early discontinuation. An expert steering committee (SC) convened to establish practice-based, and expert-agreed recommendations for the mitigation strategies of ALIS-related AEs for patients with MAC-LD, with the aim of providing up-to-date practical recommendations for healthcare professionals. The SC included: 7…
