Efficacy and safety of dupilumab in perennial allergic rhinitis and comorbid asthma

Dupilumab, an anti-IL-4Rα monoclonal antibody, inhibits IL-4/IL-13 signaling, key drivers of type 2/Th2 immune diseases (e.g. atopic/allergic disease). In a pivotal, phase 2b study (NCT01854047), dupilumab reduced severe exacerbations, improved lung function and quality of life, and was generally well tolerated in patients with uncontrolled persistent asthma despite using medium-to-high-dose inhaled corticosteroids plus long-acting β2-agonists.
