FLUIDDA's breakthrough imaging technology helps optimize COPD treatment

FLUIDDA's breakthrough imaging technology was used to assess the mode of action of Roflumilast, a novel drug to treat patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). FLUIDDA's study clearly demonstrated that the drug was superior to placebo and very effective in a subset of patients. Furthermore, the study provided a guide for physicians to determine which patient to treat. The results will soon be published in the renowned European Respiratory Journal.

FLUIDDA's CEO Dr. Jan De Backer commented: "We are very happy to see that our technology can be used to understand how certain drugs work so that they can be prescribed to the right patients. This is particularly important since a lot of future respiratory drugs will require a thorough understanding of the mechanism of action in order to make it to market."

If you are a patient of COPD then you should quit smoking. Because smoking is the main reason of COPD. There is no treatment for COPD but you can control this disease by reducing the symptoms of this disease. COPD treatment
