Amiodarone in a Nutshell
 
  Markets
 
  • Currently marketed under the brand name Cordarone for the treatment of life-threatening recurrent ventricular arrhythmia when patients have not responded to other available antiarrhythmics or when alternatives could not be tolerated
  • We could potentially develop and market this product with a safer formulation using Captisol for solubilization rather than the currently used solvent system
  Product Advantages
 
  • Amiodarone is currently available in an injectable formulation as well as an oral tablet
  • The current injectable formulation utilizes a solvent system for solubilization, which is associated with a rapid decrease in blood pressure.
  • We have developed Captisol-Enabled Amiodarone IV which does not contain the solvent system found in the current formulation
  Development Status
 
  • Licensed exclusively to Prism Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
  • Prism filed an NDA in 2008
