- Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and asthma are chronic type 2 inflammatory diseases that are frequently associated with each other. Dupilumab inhibits the dual signaling pathways of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13, which are key and central drivers of type 2 inflammation in CRSwNP. Omalizumab blocks the action of immunoglobulin E. Head-to-head studies are required to investigate the comparative efficacy and safety of these interventions. EVEREST (EValuating trEatment RESponses of dupilumab vs omalizumab in Type 2 patients) trial is designed to evaluate whether the efficacy of dupilumab is superior to omalizumab in treating patients with CRSwNP and comorbid asthma (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifiers: NCT04998604). Objective Here, we describe the EVEREST study design to compare the efficacy and safety of dupilumab compared to omalizumab over 24 weeks of treatment in patients with severe CRSwNP and comorbid asthma. Methods EVEREST is a global, phase 4 multicenter, randomized (1:1), double-blind, active-controlled trial. Approximately 422 adult patients with severe CRSwNP, symptoms of nasal congestion and loss of smell, and coexisting asthma will be recruited across 15 countries. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of dupilumab compared to omalizumab in reducing the nasal polyp size and improving the sense of smell. The key secondary objectives are to evaluate the comparative efficacy in improving CRSwNP symptoms (eg, nasal congestion) and lung function. The safety will be evaluated in terms of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, and AEs of special interest. Conclusions EVEREST is the first head-to-head trial assessing the comparative efficacy and safety of 2 biologics in patients with severe CRSwNP and comorbid asthma. The study will provide evidence to help optimize treatment plans for patients that suffer from severe CRSwNP and comorbid asthma.

- Previous genome-wide association studies revealed multiple common variants involved in eczema but the role of rare variants remains to be elucidated. Here, we investigate the role of rare variants in eczema susceptibility. We meta-analyze 21 study populations including 20,016 eczema cases and 380,433 controls. Rare variants are imputed with high accuracy using large population-based reference panels. We identify rare exonic variants in DUSP1, NOTCH4, and SLC9A4 to be associated with eczema. In DUSP1 and NOTCH4 missense variants are predicted to impact conserved functional domains. In addition, five novel common variants at SATB1-AS1/KCNH8, TRIB1/LINC00861, ZBTB1, TBX21/OSBPL7, and CSF2RB are discovered. While genes prioritized based on rare variants are significantly up-regulated in the skin, common variants point to immune cell function. Over 20% of the single nucleotide variant-based heritability is attributable to rare and low-frequency variants. The identified rare/low-frequency variants located in functional protein domains point to promising targets for novel therapeutic approaches to eczema.
