Abstract
Amikacin liposome inhalation suspension (ALIS) is known to cause drug-related pneumonitis, which has been described as "hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP)". However, its clinical and pathological characteristics have never been reported. We retrospectively evaluated 18 patients treated with ALIS. Three (16.7%) patients developed HP-pattern pneumonitis on high-resolution computed tomography. Serum eosinophil counts were elevated up to above 1000/μL in these three patients, which decreased with ALIS discontinuation only. Of note, the specimen obtained by transbronchial lung cryobiopsy in one patient revealed a mild degree of lymphocyte and eosinophil infiltration. Rather, the findings of acute lung injury such as an edematous thickening of the alveolar walls, and an accumulation of foamy degenerative macrophages in the alveolar lumina was prominent. A pulmonary alveolar proteinosis reaction was also observed. HP-pattern pneumonitis due to ALIS may pathologically correspond to acute lung injury and a pulmonary alveolar proteinosis reaction despite increasing serum eosinophil counts.

Abstract
Inhaled liposomal antimicrobials are known to cause hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Amikacin liposome inhalation suspension (ALIS) is a promising novel antimicrobial agent against refractory Mycobacterium avium complex infections. The frequency of drug-induced lung injury caused by ALIS is relatively high. To date, no reports of ALIS-induced organizing pneumonia diagnosed by bronchoscopy are available. We report a case of a 74-year-old female patient presenting with non-tuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD). She was treated with ALIS for refractory NTM-PD. Fifty-nine days after starting ALIS, the patient developed a cough, and her chest radiographs indicated deterioration. She was diagnosed with organizing pneumonia based on pathological findings of the lung tissues obtained by bronchoscopy. After switching from ALIS to amikacin infusion, her organizing pneumonia improved. It is difficult to distinguish between organizing pneumonia and an exacerbation of NTM-PD based on chest radiography alone. Therefore, it is essential to perform an active bronchoscopy for diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shortcomings of inhaled antibiotic treatments for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) include poor drug penetration, inactivation by sputum, poor efficiency due to protective biofilm, and short residence in the lung. METHODS Eligible patients with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) ≥25% of predicted value at screening and CF with chronic P. aeruginosa infection were randomly assigned to receive 3 treatment cycles (28 days on, 28 days off) of amikacin liposome inhalation suspension (ALIS, 590 mg QD) or tobramycin inhalation solution (TIS, 300 mg BID). The primary endpoint was noninferiority of ALIS vs TIS in change from baseline to day 168 in FEV1 (per-protocol population). Secondary endpoints included change in respiratory symptoms by Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R). RESULTS The study was conducted February 2012 to September 2013. ALIS was noninferior to TIS (95% CI, -4.95 to 2.34) for relative change in FEV1 (L) from baseline. The mean increases in CFQ-R score from baseline on the Respiratory Symptoms scale suggested clinically meaningful improvement in both arms at the end of treatment in cycle 1 and in the ALIS arm at the end of treatment in cycles 2 and 3; however, the changes were not statistically significant between the 2 treatment arms. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in most patients (ALIS, 84.5%; TIS, 78.8%). Serious TEAEs occurred in 17.6% and 19.9% of patients, respectively; most were hospitalisations for infective pulmonary exacerbation of CF. CONCLUSIONS Cyclical dosing of once-daily ALIS was noninferior to cyclical twice-daily TIS in improving lung function. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01315678.
