Filter by:Benralizumab is a humanised, afucosylated, monoclonal antibody against the interleukin (IL)-5 receptor (IL-5R) α subunit that induces direct, rapid, and near-complete depletion of eosinophils in blood, airway tissue, and bone marrow through enhanced antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). This apoptotic process involves natural killer cells responsible for the controlled eosinophilic elimination. In the two pivotal phase III trials SIROCCO and CALIMA, benralizumab was well tolerated, significantly reduced asthma exacerbations by up to 51%, and improved lung function as well as disease control in patients with severe, uncontrolled asthma and blood eosinophil count of ≥ 300 cells/μL blood, receiving both ICS and LABA. According to the summary of product's characteristics (SmPC) of benralizumab in Russia, it can be used for an add-on maintenance treatment for adult patients with severe eosinophilic asthma. All patients enrolled in the BEST study will comply with the SmPC approved by the Russian Ministry of Health.
The goal of this study is to identify reliable, valid, easily measurable, interpretable, and useful biomarkers in peripheral blood and exhaled air by people with severe asthma for a more accurate description of the pathogenetic processes of asthma-related to the inflammatory endotype and the choice of biologic therapy.
The purpose of this observational study is to describe the population of patients with SEA + NP who have been prescribed FASENRA and assess available clinical outcomes for both NP and asthma.
The purpose of this study is to identify gene transcripts after initiation of mepolizumab in individuals with severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA), and to determine the composition of immune cells present in the microenvironment of individuals with SEA after initiation of mepolizumab.
In this study, investigators want to evaluation of the impact of benralizumab (Fasenra®, Astra Zeneca) on different cell populations, including basophils and innate lymphoid cells, and several biomarkers, such as miRNAs, cadena α dek receptor pra la interleukin % (IL5Rα) and soluble IL5Rα in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma. For this, basophil and innate cells type 2 (ILC2) populations will be monitored in different point-time of treatment: 8 week (V1), 6 months (V2) and 1 year (V3) in blood and sputum samples. Also, follow-up IL5Rα expression on a cell surface of eosinophils, basophils and ILC2 from peripheral blood and sputum of patients treated with or or without benralizumab. Determination of IL5Rα levels will be performed by flow cytometry
Dose escalation of reslizumab can ameliorate sputum eosinophilia in severe asthmatics who have persistent sputum eosinophilia despite treatment with reslizumab at the standard dose.
A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, pilot study in parallel groups to assess the efficacy and safety of XC8 at a dose of 100 mg versus placebo over a 12-week treatment period in non-smoking patients with a confirmed bronchial asthma (BA) and the eosinophil blood level 2 times within 1 week interval of ≥ 300 cells/μl. Study design was developed by Chemlmmune Therapeutics LLC, Russia in cooperation with Eurrus Biotech GmbH, Austria.
Rationale: Despite the availability of effective treatment to reach symptom control, nearly half of the asthma patients remain inadequately controlled. There is a need for timely and appropriate treatment of patients with uncontrolled asthma. Improving asthma control could be achieved by a better identification of causes followed by remediating modifiable factors in primary care or referral to secondary care. However, major gaps in evidence-based asthma practice exist in primary care. So far, there is a lack of knowledge on the prevalence of inadequate asthma and associated characteristics. Objective: The primary objective is to determine the proportion of primary care patients with inadequate asthma control, as assessed during a regular control consultation with the general practice nurse. Study design: This is a non-interventional prospective observational study, taking place in a real-world primary care setting. The AsthmaOptimiser tool will be used during regular asthma consultations in primary care, which the healthcare provider will fill in together with the patient. The AsthmaOptimiser tool creates an overview of factors and characteristics that may be associated with uncontrolled asthma, and subsequently provides a guideline-based management suggestion. Additionally, we will perform qualitative interviews to collect experiences and perspectives of healthcare providers on their use of the AsthmaOptimiser tool, including, but not limited to, ease of use, points of improvement, and on their implementation of the management suggestions. Study population: Patients diagnosed with asthma, who attend a pre-planned primary care asthma review, are eligible to participate. A limited number of in- and exclusion criteria will be adopted, to make sure the research population closely resembles the real world. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients with inadequate asthma control. Inadequate asthma control will be defined as an exacerbation in the past 4 weeks and/or an ACQ6 (i.e., Asthma Control Questionnaire) score >0.75.
This study will evaluate the PK, PD and long-term safety of Benralizumab administered subcutaneously in 30 children aged 6 to 11 years with severe eosinophilic asthma. Up to an additional 3 Japanese patients aged 12 to 14 years will be enrolled to meet local regulatory requirements.
This study aims to assess health and quality of life outcomes in patients treated with benralizumab, within a Belgian Real-World setting. To prove the clinical value of benralizumab in a Real-World setting, the study will document the effect of benralizumab within a time frame of 112 weeks after initiation of treatment.
