THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
Leukotriene Receptor Antagonist
ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Zafirlukast is a selective and competitive receptor antagonist of
leukotriene D
4
and E
4
(LTD
4
and LTE
4
). Cysteinyl leukotriene production and receptor occupation have been
correlated
with the pathophysiology of asthma, including airway edema, smooth
muscle constriction, and
altered cellular activity associated with the inflammatory process,
which contribute to the
signs and symptoms of asthma. Patients with asthma were found in one
study to be 25-100
times more sensitive to the bronchoconstricting activity of inhaled
LTD
4
than nonasthmatic
subjects.
_In vitro_ studies demonstrated that zafirlukast antagonized the
contractile activity of three
leukotrienes (LTC
4
, LTD
4
and LTE
4
) in conducting airway smooth muscle from laboratory
animals and humans. Zafirlukast prevented intradermal LTD
4
-induced increases in cutaneous
vascular permeability and inhibited inhaled LTD
4
-induced influx of eosinophils into animal
lungs. Inhalational challenge studies in sensitized sheep showed that
zafirlukast suppressed
the airway responses to antigen; this included both the early- and
late-phase response and the
nonspecific hyperresponsiveness.
In humans, zafirlukast inhibited bronchoconstriction caused by several
kinds of inhalational
challenges. Pretreatment with single oral doses of zafirlukast
inhibited the
bronchoconstriction caused by sulfur dioxide and cold air in patients
with asthma.
Pretreatment with single doses of
