Patent Summary

Reducing asthma exacerbations and improving asthma symptoms in severe asthma patients by using an IL-4 receptor antagonist drug. The IL-4R antagonist is administered to severe asthma patients along with their usual controller medications like inhaled corticosteroids and reliever medications like albuterol. The IL-4R antagonist reduces the incidence of asthma exacerbations compared to controller therapy alone. It also improves asthma parameters like FEV1 lung function. This provides a targeted therapy option for severe asthma patients who have inadequate control despite high corticosteroid doses.
