Patients with severe asthma, uncontrolled symptoms, and exacerbations are at risk of losing lung function over time. Despite the availability of numerous treatments, many patients with severe asthma remain uncontrolled. Evolving insights into the pathophysiology of severe asthma have led to the development of biologic therapies that target epithelial alarmins, and their use is not restricted by phenotype/endotype or biomarkers. In this activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, our experts will review the latest clinical data, including key insights from medical congresses up to and including ATS 2022, with respect to novel and emerging therapies and other factors that impact the selection of treatment for patients with severe asthma who continue to have uncontrolled disease despite treatment. You will achieve greater insight into the most up-to-date evidence on the pathophysiology of severe asthma, particularly with regard to the role of epithelial alarmins in the development of severe asthma. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Discuss the rationale for the use of therapeutic options that target epithelial alarmins, including TSLP, IL-33, and IL-25, for the treatment of severe asthma; Employ the latest pathophysiologic insights into the role of epithelial alarmins to the treatment of patients with severe asthma; and Develop treatment plans for patients with severe asthma, particularly those whose disease remains uncontrolled despite treatment, based on the latest clinical evidence with regard to novel and emerging therapies.
