Abstract
Purpose: Real-world evidence of benralizumab effectiveness on nasal polyps (NP) and asthma outcomes in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA) and comorbid chronic rhinosinusitis with NP are limited. The objective of this study was to assess NP and asthma outcomes in benralizumab-treated patients with SEA and comorbid NP in a real-world setting. Patients and Methods: RANS was a retrospective, multi-country observational study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT05180357) using medical chart reviews of adults with SEA and comorbid NP. Total NP Score (NPS), SinoNasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) total score, annualized exacerbation rate (AER), and 6-item Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-6) and Asthma Control Test (ACT) scores during the 12 months pre-index (baseline) and post-index (follow-up) were measured. Clinically meaningful improvement from baseline following treatment, in terms of total NPS (≥ 1-point reduction), SNOT-22 total (≥ 8.9-point reduction), ACQ-6 (≥ 0.5-point reduction) or ACT (≥ 3-point increase) scores, were reported. Results: A total of 233 patients were included. Baseline mean (standard deviation [SD]) NPS and SNOT-22 total scores were 3.8 (2.4) and 47.5 (22.6), respectively. The mean change (95% confidence interval [CI]) from baseline was – 1.2 (– 1.7, – 0.6) for NPS, and – 19.8 (– 23.6, – 15.9) for SNOT-22. The AER (95% CI) was 1.2 (0.96, 1.41) at baseline and 0.2 (0.13, 0.28) at follow-up. Mean (SD) ACQ-6 and ACT scores were 1.6 (1.3) and 15.0 (5.2) at baseline and 0.8 (1.0) and 22.0 (3.9) at follow-up, respectively. The proportion of patients who achieved clinically meaningful improvements in NPS, SNOT-22 total, ACQ-6, and ACT scores was 49.1%, 67.6%, 56.6%, and 81.1%, respectively. Conclusion: In this real-world study, improvements in NP and asthma outcomes in patients with SEA and comorbid NP were observed during the 12 months following benralizumab initiation.
期刊介绍:
An international, peer-reviewed journal publishing original research, reports, editorials and commentaries on the following topics: Asthma; Pulmonary physiology; Asthma related clinical health; Clinical immunology and the immunological basis of disease; Pharmacological interventions and new therapies.
Although the main focus of the journal will be to publish research and clinical results in humans, preclinical, animal and in vitro studies will be published where they shed light on disease processes and potential new therapies.
