Abstract
Synopsis: Dupilumab is a novel biologic agent that targets the shared interleukin 4/13 receptor. It is safe and efficacious in patients with moderateto-severe asthma; however, subgroup analysis suggests that patients with elevated markers of type-2 inflammation benefit most from this drug.

期刊介绍:
Clinical Pulmonary Medicine provides a forum for the discussion of important new knowledge in the field of pulmonary medicine that is of interest and relevance to the practitioner. This goal is achieved through mini-reviews on focused sub-specialty topics in areas covered within the journal. These areas include: Obstructive Airways Disease; Respiratory Infections; Interstitial, Inflammatory, and Occupational Diseases; Clinical Practice Management; Critical Care/Respiratory Care; Colleagues in Respiratory Medicine; and Topics in Respiratory Medicine.
