Twenty-four hours after doses of either DAMB, ABCD, ABLC, or LAMB. All values represent the means ± SD from three to seven rabbits in
each dosing group. Plasma, concurrent plasma concentrations. P values from comparisons across dosage groups by Kruskal-Wallis
nonparametric analysis of variance (ANOVA) were as follows: lung, P = 0.0029; ELF, P = 0.0070; PAMs, P = 0.0246; PBMs, P = 0.4640; and
plasma, P = 0.0146. Between-group comparisons using Dunn's correction for multiple comparisons revealed significant differences in lung
tissue concentrations between DAMB- and ABLC-treated animals (P < 0.01), in ELF concentrations between DAMB- and LAMB-treated
animals (P < 0.01), and in PAM concentrations between ABCD- and ABLC-treated animals (P < 0.05).

“Corpora non agunt nisi fixata”
-Paul Erlich
The way forward?
• Earlier detection= wider window for drug delivery to
target tissue
• Better understanding of the pathobiology that limits
drug delivery
– Angioneogenesis, tissue repair
– Inflammation
– Can we engineer solutions?
• How can this knowledge be used to improve
therapeutic approaches, especially in chronicallyinfected patients?
– Aerosolized, intermittent or novel drug delivery approaches
