In vivo endoscopic multifunctional optical coherence tomography imaging of lungs periphery before and after bronchial thermoplasty [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 We demonstrate the use of a motorized distal scanning endoscope to acquire in vivo data in lungs of severe-asthma patients before and after an asthma treatment procedure called bronchial thermoplasty.

Bronchial thermoplasty: a new therapeutic option for the treatment of severe, uncontrolled asthma in adults [PDF]
European Respiratory Review, 2014 Bronchial thermoplasty is a young yet promising treatment for severe asthma whose benefit for long-term asthma control outweighs the short-term risk of deterioration and hospitalisation in the days following the treatment.

Safety and efficacy of bronchial thermoplasty in Australia 5 years post‐procedure
Respirology, Volume 28, Issue 11, Page 1053-1059, November 2023., 2023 In an Australian cohort of very severe asthmatics treated with bronchial thermoplasty, maintenance of effect was seen at 5 years with sustained reductions in ACQ score and exacerbation frequency. When compared with baseline CT imaging, some cases demonstrated bronchial dilatation, without clinical features of bronchiectasis.

The evolving landscape of immunotherapy for the treatment of allergic conditions
Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 16, Issue 8, Page 1294-1308, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Allergic conditions, such as asthma, chronic urticaria, atopic dermatitis (AD), and eosinophilic esophagitis, have long been treated with oral and topical steroids which resulted in negative off‐target effects. However, newer biologic medications are increasingly being developed and approved for treatment of these conditions. These medications

Allergy, Volume 78, Issue 7, Page 1934-1948, July 2023., 2023 The effectiveness of anti‐IgE and anti‐IL5/5R was compared in this prospective cohort study including patients with severe asthma enrolled in ISAR and eligible for both biologic classes. Both anti‐IgE and anti‐IL5/5R improved asthma outcomes; however, anti‐IL5/5R was superior in reducing asthma exacerbations and LTOCS use.

Airway transcriptomic profiling after bronchial thermoplasty
ERJ Open Research, 2019 Background Bronchial thermoplasty is a nonpharmacological, device-based treatment option for a specific population of severe asthmatic subjects, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. The purpose of this study is to identify potential altered
