Impact of biologics on lung hyperinflation in patients with severe asthma

BACKGROUND: In asthma, inflammation affects both the proximal and distal airways and can cause significant hyperinflation, which is thought to be a major cause of dyspnea.
METHODS: This is a retrospective observational study evaluating the effect of three months of treatment with different biologic drugs (benralizumab, dupilumab and omalizumab) on pulmonary hyperinflation in a cohort of patients with severe asthma already receiving regular triple inhaled therapy. Changes in RV, RV/TLC ratio, FRC and FRC/TLC ratio were the primary efficacy measures. Secondary outcomes included FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio, IC, IC/TLC ratio, asthma control test, the percentage of eosinophils in the blood and fractional FENO.
RESULTS: Benralizumab led to significant changes (p < 0.001) in RV, RV/TLC, FRC, and FRC/TLC. Dupilumab demonstrated a notable reduction in RV (p = 0.017) and RV/TLC (p = 0.002), but the decreases in FRC and FRC/TLC were merely numerical and not as pronounced as those induced by benralizumab. Omalizumab's positive impact on RV (p = 0.057) and RV/TLC (p = 0.085), as well as FRC (p = 0.202) and FRC/TLC (p = 0.096), was also predominantly numerical, with a tendency towards efficacy, albeit excluding the effect on FRC. Treatment with biologics resulted in improvements in all other lung function parameters assessed and a decrease in FENO levels.
CONCLUSION: This study, although limited by small sample size, lack of a placebo control, and unbalanced group sizes, suggests that biological agents are effective in reducing lung hyperinflation even after a relatively short treatment.
