On a clinical ground tezepelumab, selectively binding TSLP, a major epithelial cytokine, has demonstrated to be effective in asthma patients regardless their specific phenotype.

Tezepelumab is effective in allergic patients, being able to reduce asthma exacerbations precipitated by the exposure to seasonal or perennial aeroallergens, including fungi. In addition, tezepelumab reduced the incidence of co-occurring respiratory illness and asthma exacerbations. In terms of inflammation, epithelial immune response has been related to an impaired mucus hypersecretion and plugging. A placebo-controlled trial demonstrated a significant reduction of mucus plugging in treated patient. Airways hyperreactivity (AHR), airways obstruction and remodelling have been described as an expression of epithelial orchestrated immunological activation. Of note, a significantly higher incidence of mannitol negative test in patients treated with tezepelumab when compared to placebo group has been observed. In addition, A 130 mL improvement in pre-BD FEV1 has been described in patients assuming Tezepelumab.
