A summary of novel biologics for asthma treatment

Abstract: Over 235 million people struggle with asthma. Many patients suffering from a severe type of asthma have a problem with disease control. In this case, basic treatment like high-dose inhaled corticosteroids may not have a suitable effect. With the present level of knowledge about phenotypes and endotypes of asthma, there is a way to customise a more personalised and effective type of medication for every patient. Omalizumab was the first novel type of therapy, and almost 20 years since its approval, it is still … Show more

“…leu-kotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs), which reduce the frequency of exacerbations and the severity of symptoms, but with weaker anti-inflammatory functionality than inhaled corticosteroids (ICS). Another type of treatment is biological therapy, which, by targeting specific inflammatory factors and reducing symptoms, provides more innovative solutions for the treatment of asthma [31].…”
