Clinical Asthma Remission Obtained with Biologics in Real Life : Patients' Prevalence and Characteristics
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of clinical asthma remission with biologics in severe asthma has not been well understood yet. We do not even know whether there might be characteristics that identify subjects prone to remission of the disease.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospectively, four groups of severe asthmatics already treated with Omalizumab, Mepolizumab, Benralizumab and Dupilumab (302, 55, 95 and 34 patients, respectively) for at least 12 months were considered. The number of individuals with clinical asthma remission was sought in each group. This was considered when patients, after a treatment of at least 1 year with one of the aforesaid biologics, showed the disappearance of asthma symptoms (ACT ≥ 20), zero exacerbations, suspension of oral corticosteroids and a FEV1% ≥ 80%. Baseline characteristics of patients with and without remission were also taken into account.
RESULTS: The prevalence of asthma remission after a mean of 37.8 ± 19.2, 13.5 ± 1.7, 15.4 ± 5.5 and 12 ± 0 months of Omalizumab, Mepolizumab, Benralizumab and Dupilumab treatments was 21.8%, 23.6%, 35.8% and 23.5%, respectively. For each biologic, different baseline characteristics, seem to be associated with failure to achieve clinical asthma remission. Older age, higher BMI, a later age of asthma onset, rhinitis/sinusitis/nasal polyposis, comorbidities and a greater asthma severity may be the characteristics of a suboptimal response to biologic treatments.
CONCLUSION: All biologics have the potential to induce disease remission in severe asthmatics. For each biologic, there may be several markers that can identify the patients who will not achieve asthma remission. It would be important to detect them (by carrying out targeted studies) as they would allow us to select the best biologic that may induce clinical asthma remission on a larger number of patients.
