Description

Abstract
The principal goal of this project is to demonstrate that the FDA-approved anthelminthic drug, niclosamide, can be reformulated in a synthetic lung surfactant which can be aerosolized for the treatment of infections caused by respiratory viruses. The studies proposed in this sbir phase I application will be focused on testing this concept by suspending niclosamide loaded liposomes in our proprietary lung surfactant technology (NICLOSURF) and testing candidate NICLOSURF formulations in a mouse influenza challenge model. The effectiveness of NICLOSURF as a treatment for respiratory viral infections caused by influenza will be evaluated.
