Frequently asked questions about Albuterol

What is albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets?

Albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets are an investigational oral formulation of albuterol, a small-molecule beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist. The extended-release tablet is designed to release the drug over time rather than immediately. Viatris Inc. (VTRS) is developing this formulation, which has been studied in Phase 1 bioequivalence trials in healthy volunteers.

What does albuterol target?

Albuterol targets ADRB2, the beta-2 adrenergic receptor. It acts as an agonist at this receptor, meaning it activates the receptor. ADRB2 agonism is the established mechanism for albuterol, a bronchodilator used in airway conditions. The extended-release tablet formulation is being developed by Viatris Inc. (VTRS) as an oral version of this small molecule.

Who makes albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets?

Viatris Inc. (ticker VTRS) is the developer of albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets. The company has sponsored Phase 1 clinical trials of this oral extended-release formulation, including bioequivalence studies comparing it with VoSpire ER tablets in healthy adult volunteers.

What phase is albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets in?

Albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets are in Phase 1 clinical development. The program has completed three Phase 1 trials with a total enrollment of 90 participants. The studies were randomized and active-controlled, conducted in the United States in healthy volunteers aged 18 years and older.

What clinical trials are albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets in?

Three completed Phase 1 trials have studied albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets: NCT00649987, a fed bioequivalence study with 21 participants; NCT00649779, a fasting bioequivalence study with 21 participants; and NCT00730197, a fasting bioequivalence study with 48 participants. All enrolled healthy adults in the United States.

Is albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg the same as VoSpire ER?

Albuterol sulfate extended-release 8 mg tablets were compared with VoSpire ER tablets 8 mg in Phase 1 bioequivalence studies. VoSpire ER is a reference extended-release albuterol product used as the comparator in these trials. The studies evaluated both fed and fasting bioequivalence between the two formulations in healthy volunteers.
