Abediterol, also known as LAS100977, is a novel potent, long-acting inhaled β(2)-adrenoceptor agonist in development for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Abediterol shows subnanomolar affinity for the human β(2)-adrenoceptor and a functional selectivity over β(1)-adrenoceptors higher than that of formoterol and indacaterol in both a cellular model with overexpressed human receptors and isolated guinea pig tissue. Abediterol is a full agonist at the human β(2)-adrenoceptor (E(max) = 91 ± 5% of the maximal effect of isoprenaline). The potency and onset of action that abediterol shows in isolated human bronchi (EC(50) = 1.9 ± 0.4 nM; t½ onset = 7-10 min) is not significantly different from that of formoterol, but its duration of action (t½ ∼ 690 min) is similar to that of indacaterol.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
