Treating severe asthma: Targeting the IL‐5 pathway
Severe asthma is a heterogeneous disease with different phenotypes based on clinical, functional or inflammatory parameters. In particular, the eosinophilic phenotype is associated with type 2 inflammation and increased levels of interleukin (IL)‐4, IL‐5

Severe Asthma in a General Population Study: Prevalence and Clinical Characteristics
Purpose Current guidelines primarily use medication levels to distinguish severe asthma from other types of asthma. In addition, severe asthma must also be uncontrolled at high-intensity treatment or become uncontrolled if treatment level is decreased ...

BackgroundAtopic dermatitis (AD) is regarded as a chronic systemic disease which is characterized by a robust overexpression of type 2 related cytokines, with increased total IgE levels and a concomitant sensitization to common allergens.

EAACI Biologicals Guidelines—Recommendations for severe asthma
Severe asthma imposes a significant burden on patients, families and healthcare systems. Management is difficult, due to disease heterogeneity, co‐morbidities, complexity in care pathways and differences between national or regional healthcare systems ...

Severe Eosinophilic Asthma [PDF]
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease with varying severity. Severe asthma is a subject of constant research because it greatly affects patients’ quality of life, and patients with severe asthma experience symptoms, exacerbations, and medication side effects.

Mepolizumab effectiveness and identification of super-responders in severe asthma
Severe asthma is a high-burden disease. Real-world data on mepolizumab in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma is needed to assess whether the data from randomised controlled trials are applicable in a broader population.

Obesity, Inflammation, and Severe Asthma: an Update
Obesity-associated difficult asthma continues to be a substantial problem and, despite a move to address treatable traits affecting asthma morbidity and mortality, it remains poorly understood with limited phenotype-specific treatments.

Does asthma impair wealth accumulation or does wealth protect against asthma? [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: We investigate the association between adult asthma and wealth, testing whether the disease impairs wealth accumulation (social selection model) or if wealth protects against asthma (social causation model).

Imaging for precision medicine: can V‐P SPECT measure mepolizumab response in asthma?
Monoclonal antibody therapies are effective for many but not all people with severe asthma. Precision medicine guides treatment selection using biomarkers to select patients most likely to respond according to their inflammatory endotypes.

Biomarkers in Severe Asthma [PDF]
Biomarkers have been critical for studies of disease pathogenesis and the development of new therapies in severe asthma. In particular, biomarkers of type 2 inflammation have proven valuable for endotyping and targeting new biological agents. Because of these successes in understanding and marking type 2 inflammation, lack of knowledge regarding non ...
