Abstract
Background
Type 2 (T2) inflammation, characterized by blood and airway eosinophilia, underlies severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA) and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). In line with the Global Airways theory, SEA and CRSwNP frequently co-occur, creating a multimorbid phenotype. Separately, SEA and CRSwNP are burdensome: when concomitant, they compound each other, creating a more difficult-to-treat disease with increased complications.
Body
Current management approaches rarely control disease and are associated with substantial side-effects. Several recently developed anti-IL-5 monoclonal antibodies have shown efficacy in treating co-morbid SEA with CRSwNP by targeting T2 inflammation with systemic therapies. Of these, only benralizumab directly targets the IL-5 receptor-α, leading to rapid, sustained, near-complete eosinophil depletion. Analyses in patients with co-morbid SEA with CRSwNP are limited, although data from the ANDHI, XALOC-1, and RANS studies suggest benralizumab can effectively target inflammation underlying co-morbid disease.
Conclusion
Despite progress toward more effective therapies, treatment approaches remain siloed, with SEA and CRSwNP often managed separately. There is a need for the development of multidisciplinary approaches for treating patients with comorbid SEA with CRSwNP.
期刊介绍:
Clinical and Translational Allergy, one of several journals in the portfolio of the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, provides a platform for the dissemination of allergy research and reviews, as well as EAACI position papers, task force reports and guidelines, amongst an international scientific audience.
Clinical and Translational Allergy accepts clinical and translational research in the following areas and other related topics: asthma, rhinitis, rhinosinusitis, drug hypersensitivity, allergic conjunctivitis, allergic skin diseases, atopic eczema, urticaria, angioedema, venom hypersensitivity, anaphylaxis, food allergy, immunotherapy, immune modulators and biologics, animal models of allergic disease, immune mechanisms, or any other topic related to allergic disease.
