2. • Define severe asthma and prevalence
• Review available biologic therapies and mechanism of action
• Discuss management of non-T2 asthma
Learning Objectives
4. Asthma that requires treatment at GINA steps 4–5 or systemic CS for
>50% of the previous year to prevent it from becoming ‘‘uncontrolled’’
or remains ‘‘uncontrolled‘‘ despite this therapy
Or
Controlled asthma that worsens on tapering of these high doses of ICS
or systemic CS (or additional biologics)
Severe Asthma - Definition
Chung et al. Eur Respir J 2014; 43: 343–373
7. Available Biologics in Asthma
Drug Mechanism Route Setting
Omalizumab Anti-IgE Subcutaneous Home/Clinic
Mepolizumab Anti-IL5 Subcutaneous Home/Clinic
Reslizumab Anti-IL5 Intravenous Clinic
Benralizumab Anti-IL5Ra Subcutaneous Home/Clinic
Dupilumab Anti-IL4Ra Subcutaneous Home
Omalizumab
Dupilumab
Mepolizumab
Reslizumab
Benralizumab
8. Anti-IgE humanized recombinant monoclonal antibody
Binds to free circulating IgE at the same site as high-affinity IgE receptor
Indication
– Moderate-Severe allergic asthma
– Serum IgE 30-700 IU/ml with sensitivity to >1 perennial allergen
AEs: Small risk of delayed anaphylactic reactions (0.2%)
Administration: Subcutaneous injection every 2-4 weeks
Anti-IgE Monoclonal Antibody (Omalizumab)
9. Anti-IL5 monoclonal antibodies (mepolizumab, reslizumab)
Anti-IL5 receptor monoclonal antibody (benralizumab)
Indication: Add-on maintenance therapy for patients with
severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype
Administration:
– Mepolizumab: 100 mg subcutaneous injection every 4 weeks
– Reslizumab: Weight-based intravenous infusion every 4 weeks
– Benralizumab: 30 mg subcutaneous every 4 weeks x 3, then every 8 weeks
Anti-IL5 Therapy
IL-5
IL-5R
10. Fully human monoclonal antibody
Binds to alpha subunit of IL-4 receptor
Inhibits the activity of both Il-4 and IL-13
Indication: moderate-to-severe, eosinophilic asthma and OCS-dependent asthma
Dose: 400 mg or 600 mg initial loading dose, then 200mg or 300 mg every 2 weeks
subcutaneously
Higher dose in OCS-dependent asthma or comorbid atopic dermatitis
Anti-IL4R antibody (dupilumab)

13. Treatment of Type 2 Low Asthma
40 - 50% of asthma patients do not have Type 2 inflammation
Severe, uncontrolled asthma without evidence for Type 2 inflammation
referred to as ‘Type 2 low asthma’
Potential targets for Type 2 low asthma:
Macrolide antibiotics
Bronchial Thermoplasty
14. N=420
Symptomatic asthma despite ICS/LABA
Azithromycin 500 mg thrice weekly vs
placebo for 48 weeks
Azithromycin in asthma
