About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

LEO Pharma Receives Positive CHMP Opinion for New Adtralza® (tralokinumab) Injection Device

By: via Business Wire
  • CHMP recommends approval of the Adtralza pre-filled pen.
  • Adtralza is currently available in a 1 ml pre-filled syringe. Administration with the 2 ml pre-filled pen requires half the number of injections, with a single dose given every other week, and simplifies the process with a hidden needle and press-down auto-injection.
  • Following positive opinion from the CHMP, a final decision from the European Commission is pending.

LEO Pharma A/S, has today announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has adopted a positive opinion that recommends the approval of Adtralza® (tralokinumab) solution for injection in a new single dose (300 mg) 2 ml pre-filled pen.

Adtralza, a high-affinity fully human monoclonal antibody,1 has previously been available in a 1 ml pre-filled syringe. The 2 ml pre-filled pen will be an additional option for Adtralza patients and prescribers who prefer a simplified method of administration that halves the number of injections required, with a single 300 mg dose given every other week rather than two 150 mg doses with the pre-filled syringe. For patients who prefer the pre-filled syringe, this administration option will continue to be available in markets where Adtralza is already launched.

The pre-filled pen, developed in partnership with a global leader in innovative injection systems, features a hidden needle and a simple press-down auto-injection with visual and audible feedback mechanisms to aid patients with administration.

“Not only will the Adtralza 2 ml pre-filled pen be more convenient by reducing the number of injections required, but it also eases administration by simplifying the injection process for patients,” said Kreesten Meldgaard Madsen, Chief Development Officer, LEO Pharma. “This milestone brings us a step closer to providing the best possible support to patients, caregivers and prescribers in the management of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.”

The CHMP’s positive opinion will be reviewed by the European Commission (EC) and, pending the final decision, authorization of the pre-filled pen will be valid in all EU member states, Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein. Regulatory filings in other markets are underway.

Adtralza is approved for the treatment of adult and adolescent patients with moderate-to-severe AD in the European Union, Canada, Great Britain, and the United Arab Emirates, and is approved for use in adults with moderate-to-severe AD in Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, and Japan. In the U.S., Adtralza is marketed under the tradename Adbry® and is approved for use in adults with moderate to severe AD.

About atopic dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by intense itch and eczematous lesions.2 Atopic dermatitis is the result of skin barrier dysfunction and immune dysregulation, leading to chronic inflammation.3 Type 2 cytokines, including IL-13, play an important role in the key aspects of atopic dermatitis pathophysiology.3,4

About Adtralza® (tralokinumab)

Adtralza® (tralokinumab), which is marketed under the tradename Adbry® in the U.S., is a high-affinity fully human monoclonal antibody developed to bind to and inhibit the interleukin (IL)-13 cytokine, which plays a role in the immune and inflammatory processes underlying atopic dermatitis signs and symptoms.3,4 Adtralza specifically binds to the IL-13 cytokine, thereby inhibiting interaction with the IL-13 receptor α1 and α2 subunits (IL-13Rα1 and IL-13Rα2).1
