- BACKGROUND: This phase 3 study further characterizes the efficacy and safety of reslizumab (a humanized anti-interleukin-5 monoclonal antibody) in patients aged 12-75 years with asthma inadequately controlled by at least a medium-dose inhaled corticosteroid, and blood eosinophils ≥400cells/μL.METHODS: Patients were randomized to receive reslizumab 0.3 or 3.0mg/kg or placebo once/every 4 weeks/16 weeks. Primary endpoint was change from baseline in pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1) over 16 weeks. Secondary endpoints included forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory flow at 25-75% of FVC (FEF25-75%), patient-reported control of asthma symptoms, short-acting beta agonist (SABA) use, blood eosinophil levels, and safety.RESULTS: Reslizumab significantly improved FEV1 (difference vs placebo [reslizumab 0.3 and 3.0mg/kg]:115mL[95% CI 16-215; P= .0237] and 160mL[95% CI 60-259; P= .0018]). Clinically meaningful increases in FVC (130mL) and FEF25-75% (233mL/s) were observed with reslizumab 3.0mg/kg. Reslizumab improved Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) and Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) versus placebo (greater effects seen with 3.0mg/kg; P<0.05). The minimally important difference was reached for AQLQ (reslizumab 3.0mg/kg) but not ACQ. Asthma Symptom Utility Index and SABA use were improved with reslizumab. The most common adverse events were asthma worsening, headache, and nasopharyngitis; most were mild-to-moderate in severity.CONCLUSIONS: Reslizumab improved lung function, asthma control and symptoms, and quality of life, and was well tolerated in patients with inadequately controlled asthma (despite standard therapy), and elevated blood eosinophils. Overall, the 3.0mg/kg dose of reslizumab provided greater improvements in asthma outcomes (vs 0.3mg/kg), with comparable safety.

- Digital anamorphosis is used to define a distorted image of health and care that may be viewed correctly using digital tools and strategies. MASK digital anamorphosis represents the process used by MASK to develop the digital transformation of health and care in rhinitis. It strengthens the ARIA change management strategy in the prevention and management of airway disease. The MASK strategy is based on validated digital tools. Using the MASK digital tool and the CARAT online enhanced clinical framework, solutions for practical steps of digital enhancement of care are proposed.

Next-generation ARIA care pathways for rhinitis and asthma : a model for multimorbid chronic diseases
- 2019

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: In all societies, the burden and cost of allergic and chronic respiratory diseases are increasing rapidly. Most economies are struggling to deliver modern health care effectively. There is a need to support the transformation of the health care system into integrated care with organizational health literacy.Main body: As an example for chronic disease care, MASK (Mobile Airways Sentinel NetworK), a new project of the ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma) initiative, and POLLAR (Impact of Air POLLution on Asthma and Rhinitis, EIT Health), in collaboration with professional and patient organizations in the field of allergy and airway diseases, are proposing real-life ICPs centred around the patient with rhinitis, and using mHealth to monitor environmental exposure. Three aspects of care pathways are being developed: (i) Patient participation, health literacy and self-care through technology-assisted "patient activation", (ii) Implementation of care pathways by pharmacists and (iii) Next-generation guidelines assessing the recommendations of GRADE guidelines in rhinitis and asthma using real-world evidence (RWE) obtained through mobile technology. The EU and global political agendas are of great importance in supporting the digital transformation of health and care, and MASK has been recognized by DG Sante as a Good Practice in the field of digitally-enabled, integrated, person-centred care.Conclusion: In 20 years, ARIA has considerably evolved from the first multimorbidity guideline in respiratory diseases to the digital transformation of health and care with a strong political involvement.

Impact of pre-biologic impairment on meeting domain-specific biologic responder definitions in patients with severe asthma

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: There is little agreement on clinically useful criteria for identifying real-world responders to biologic treatments for asthma. Objective: To investigate the impact of pre-biologic impairment on meeting domain-specific biologic responder definitions in adults with severe asthma. Methods: This was a longitudinal, cohort study across 22 countries participating in the International Severe Asthma Registry (https://isaregistries.org/) between May 2017 and January 2023. Change in 4 asthma domains (exacerbation rate, asthma control, long-term oral corticosteroid [LTOCS] dose, and lung function) was assessed from biologic initiation to 1 year post-treatment (minimum 24 weeks). Pre- to post-biologic changes for responders and nonresponders were described along a categorical gradient for each domain derived from pre-biologic distributions (exacerbation rate: 0 to 6+/y; asthma control: well controlled to uncontrolled; LTOCS: 0 to >30 mg/d; percent-predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second [ppFEV1]: <50% to ≥80%). Results: Percentage of biologic responders (ie, those with a category improvement pre- to post-biologic) varied by domain and increased with greater pre-biologic impairment, increasing from 70.2% to 90.0% for exacerbation rate, 46.3% to 52.3% for asthma control, 31.1% to 58.5% for LTOCS daily dose, and 35.8% to 50.6% for ppFEV1. The proportion of patients having improvement post-biologic tended to be greater for anti–IL-5/5R compared with for anti-IgE for exacerbation, asthma control, and ppFEV1 domains, irrespective of pre-biologic impairment. Conclusion: Our results provide realistic outcome-specific post-biologic expectations for both physicians and patients, will be foundational to inform future work on a multidimensional approach to define and assess biologic responders and response, and may enhance appropriate patient selection for biologic therapies. Trial Registration: The ISAR database has ethical approval from the Anonymous Data Ethics Protocols and Transparency (ADEPT) committee (ADEPT0218) and is registered with the European Union Electronic Register of Post-Authorization studies (ENCEPP/DSPP/23720). The study was designed, implemented, and reported in compliance with the European Network Centres for Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacovigilance (ENCEPP) Code of Conduct (EUPAS38288) and with all applicable local and international laws and regulation, and registered with ENCEPP (https://www.encepp.eu/encepp/viewResource.htm?id=38289). Governance was provided by ADEPT (registration number: ADEPT1220).
