Effect of omalizumab on adenosine 5'-monophosphate responsiveness in subjects with allergic asthma.

TL;DR: Findings are consistent with the conclusion that the contribution of IgE to the development of AMP bronchoconstriction is more important than their role in the induction of methacholine hyperresponsiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal increase in total IgE levels in patients with adult asthma: an association with poor asthma control

TL;DR: Patients with increased IgE tended to have significantly higher mean age, more episodes of acute exacerbation within a year, lower ACT scores, and used oral corticosteroids more frequently than those with decreased or unchanged IgE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Omalizumab for severe allergic asthma in clinical trials and real-life studies: what we know and what we should address.

TL;DR: Though some similarities between RCTs and R-L studies strengthen omalizumab efficacy and safety outcomes, significant differences concerning study population features, follow-up duration, local adverse events and drop-out rate for treatment inefficacy emerge between the two study categories.
Journal ArticleDOI

The clinical profile of benralizumab in the management of severe eosinophilic asthma

TL;DR: The features of benralizumab compared with other anti-interleukin-5 biologics and omalizumAB, the identification of appropriate patients, the safety profile and future developments are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overlapping Effects of New Monoclonal Antibodies for Severe Asthma

TL;DR: The pathophysiology of some immunological aspects of severe asthma is presented, the adaptive and innate immunity arms as well as their interrelations are described, and the pharmacologic effects of these mAbs are outlined to clarify the overlapping effects of the different mAbs.

Evaluation of impairment of health related quality of life in asthma: development of a questionnaire for use in clinical trials.

TL;DR: A questionnaire suitable for all adults with asthma and designed to be responsive to within subject change and therefore may be used as a measure of outcome in clinical trials in asthma is developed.

Allergy, rhinitis, other respiratory diseases Omalizumab, anti-IgE recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody, for the treatment of severe allergic asthma

TL;DR: Omalizumab as discussed by the authors is a recombinant humanized anti-IgE mAb, which forms complexes with free IgE, blocking its interaction with mast cells and basophils.
Journal ArticleDOI

The anti-IgE antibody omalizumab reduces exacerbations and steroid requirement in allergic asthmatics

TL;DR: Results indicate that omalizumab therapy safely improves asthma control in allergic asthmatics who remain symptomatic despite regular use of inhaled corticosteroids and simultaneous reduction in Corticosteroid requirement.
