Studies indicate that AVI-4557 can successfully reduce the rate of metabolism for certain drugs, therefore allowing greater and longer availability of the drug in the patient's system through a decrease in clearance and an increase in maximal blood concentration (Cmax). AVI-4557 is therefore indicated to limit toxicity for patients receiving highly-toxic therapeutic drugs for treatment of anxiety, cancer, and a number of other serious conditions."@en ; dct:identifier "drugbank:DB05447" ; dct:title "AVI-4557"@en ; adv:Drug ; rdfs:label "AVI-4557 [drugbank:DB05447]"@en ; rdfs:seeAlso <http://www.drugbank.ca/drugs/DB05447> . }
