Journal ArticleDOI

Yvonne J. Huang,Craig E. Nelson,Eoin L. Brodie,Todd Z. DeSantis,Marshall S. Baek,Jane Liu,Tanja Woyke,Martin Allgaier,James Bristow,Jeanine P. Wiener-Kronish,E. Rand Sutherland,Tonya S. King,Nikolina Icitovic,Richard J. Martin,William J. Calhoun,Mario Castro,Loren C. Denlinger,Emily DiMango,Monica Kraft,Stephen P. Peters,Stephen I. Wasserman,Michael E. Wechsler,Homer A. Boushey,Susan V. Lynch +23 more
TL;DR: The composition of Bronchial airway microbiota is associated with the degree of bronchial hyperresponsiveness among patients with suboptimally controlled asthma, and these findings support the need for further functional studies to examine the potential contribution of members of theAirway microbiota in asthma pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tiotropium bromide step-up therapy for adults with uncontrolled asthma
Stephen P. Peters,Susan J. Kunselman,Nikolina Icitovic,Wendy C. Moore,Rodolfo M. Pascual,Bill T. Ameredes,Homer A. Boushey,William J. Calhoun,Mario Castro,Reuben M. Cherniack,Timothy J. Craig,Loren C. Denlinger,Linda Engle,Emily DiMango,John V. Fahy,Elliot Israel,Nizar N. Jarjour,Shamsah Kazani,Monica Kraft,Stephen C. Lazarus,Robert F. Lemanske,Njira L Lugogo,Richard J. Martin,Deborah A. Meyers,Joe W. Ramsdell,Christine A. Sorkness,E. Rand Sutherland,Stanley J. Szefler,Stephen I. Wasserman,Michael J. Walter,Michael E. Wechsler,Vernon M. Chinchilli,Eugene R. Bleecker +32 more
TL;DR: When added to an inhaled glucocorticoid, tiotropium improved symptoms and lung function in patients with inadequately controlled asthma and its effects appeared to be equivalent to those with the addition of salmeterol.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Large Subgroup of Mild-to-Moderate Asthma Is Persistently Noneosinophilic
Kelly Wong McGrath,Nikolina Icitovic,Homer A. Boushey,Stephen C. Lazarus,E. Rand Sutherland,Vernon M. Chinchilli,John V. Fahy +6 more
TL;DR: Almost half of patients with mild-to-moderate asthma have persistently noneosinophilic disease, a disease phenotype that responds poorly to currently available antiinflammatory therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of physician-, biomarker-, and symptom-based strategies for adjustment of inhaled corticosteroid therapy in adults with asthma: the BASALT randomized controlled trial.
William J. Calhoun,Bill T. Ameredes,Tonya S. King,Nikolina Icitovic,Eugene R. Bleecker,Mario Castro,Reuben M. Cherniack,Vernon M. Chinchilli,Timothy J. Craig,Loren C. Denlinger,Emily DiMango,Linda Engle,John V. Fahy,J. Andrew Grant,Elliot Israel,Nizar N. Jarjour,Shamsah Kazani,Monica Kraft,Susan J. Kunselman,Stephen C. Lazarus,Robert F. Lemanske,Njira L Lugogo,Richard J. Martin,Deborah A. Meyers,Wendy C. Moore,Rodolfo M. Pascual,Stephen P. Peters,Joe W. Ramsdell,Christine A. Sorkness,E. Rand Sutherland,Stanley J. Szefler,Stephen I. Wasserman,Michael J. Walter,Michael E. Wechsler,Homer A. Boushey,Homer A. Boushey +35 more
TL;DR: Among adults with mild to moderate persistent asthma controlled with low-dose inhaled corticosteroid therapy, the use of either biomarker-based or symptom-based adjustment of inhaled Corticosteroids was not superior to physician assessment-based adjustments in time to treatment failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
A trial of clarithromycin for the treatment of suboptimally controlled asthma
E. Rand Sutherland,Tonya S. King,Nikolina Icitovic,Bill T. Ameredes,Eugene R. Bleecker,Homer A. Boushey,William J. Calhoun,Mario Castro,Reuben M. Cherniack,Vernon M. Chinchilli,Timothy J. Craig,Loren C. Denlinger,Emily DiMango,John V. Fahy,Elliot Israel,Nizar N. Jarjour,Monica Kraft,Stephen C. Lazarus,Robert F. Lemanske,Stephen P. Peters,Joe W. Ramsdell,Christine A. Sorkness,Stanley J. Szefler,Michael J. Walter,Stephen I. Wasserman,Michael E. Wechsler,Hong Wei Chu,Richard J. Martin +27 more
TL;DR: Adding clarithromycin to fluticasone in adults with mild-to-moderate persistent asthma that was suboptimally controlled by low-dose inhaled corticosteroids alone did not further improve asthma control, but there was an improvement in airway hyperresponsiveness with clarithsromycin.
