Pulmozyme® / Dornase Alfa Reference Product

Drug namePulmozyme®
INNDornase Alfa
API typeDornase Alfa is an enzyme produced by recombinant DNA technology.
Pharmacotherapeutic group
Respiratory system
ATC code
R05CB13
TargetDNA in cystic fibrosis mucus
General function
Short descriptionManagement of cystic fibrosis patients with a forced vital capacity (FVC) of greater than 40% of predicted and over 5 years of age to improve pulmonary function.
Pharmacodynamic properties
(Mechanism of action; Source EMC document)
Recombinant human DNase is a genetically engineered version of a naturally occurring human enzyme which cleaves extracellular DNA.
Retention of viscous purulent secretions in the airways contributes both to reduced pulmonary function and to exacerbations of infection. Purulent secretions contain very high concentrations of extracellular DNA, a viscous polyanion released by degenerating leukocytes, which accumulate in response to infection. In vitro, dornase alfa hydrolyses DNA in sputum and greatly reduces the viscoelasticity of cystic fibrosis sputum.
Pharmacodynamic properties (Pharmacodynamic effects; Source EMC document)Inhalation studies conducted in rats and non-human primates show a low percentage of dornase alfa systemic absorption, < 15% for rats and < 2% for monkeys. Consistent with the results of these animal studies, dornase alfa administered to patients as an inhaled aerosol shows low systemic exposure.
Absorption of dornase alfa from the gastrointestinal tract following oral administration to rats is negligible.
