Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition with increasing prevalence worldwide that may present as heterogeneous phenotypes defined by the T2-mediated pattern of airway inflammation T2-high and T2-low asthma. Severe refractory includes subset asthmatic patients who fail to control their disease despite maximal therapy represent group needing marked resource utilization hence be eligible add-on biological therapies. Among new biologics, we focused our attention on two monoclonal antibodies: dupilumab, exerting dual blockade cytokine (interleukin (IL)-4 IL-13) signaling; tezepelumab, acting at higher level preventing binding thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) its receptor, thus blocking TSLP, IL-25, IL-33 signaling, modulating T2 immune responses. With different mechanisms action, these biologics important options provide an enhanced personalized treatment regimen. Several clinical trials have been conducted testing efficacy safety dupilumab in severe showing improvements lung function, control, reducing exacerbations. Similar results were reported tezepelumab that, differently from acts irrespectively eosinophilic or non-eosinophilic phenotype. In this review, overview most highlights regarding characteristics mechanism action critical review principal (Phase II III) studies concluded those still progress.

The exposure of the airway epithelium to external stimuli such as allergens, microbes, and air pollution triggers release alarmin cytokines IL-25, IL-33 thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). TSLP interact with their ligands, IL-17RA, IL1RL1 TSLPR respectively, expressed by hematopoietic non-hematopoietic cells including dendritic cells, ILC2 endothelial fibroblasts. Alarmins play key roles in driving type 2-high, a lesser extent 2-low responses, asthma. In addition, studies which each these three alarmins were targeted allergen-challenged mice showed decreased chronicity type-2 driven disease. Consequently, ascertaining mechanism activity upstream mediators has implications for understanding outcome therapies designed counteract alleviate downstream 2-high low effector responses. Furthermore, identifying factors shift balance between elicitation eosinophilic asthma low, neutrophilic-positive/negative is essential. support efforts, observations from NAVIGATOR trial imply that targeting patients tezepelumab results reduced exacerbations, improved lung function control this review, we will discuss mechanisms surrounding secretion IL-33, how influences allergic cascade.

Traditional therapy for BP based on systemic use of corticosteroids, but long-term corticosteroids results a series side effects. Type 2 inflammation immune response largely mediated by group innate lymphoid cells, type T helper eosinophils, inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5 IL-13. Among patients with BP, levels immunoglobulin E eosinophils are significantly increased peripheral blood skin lesions, suggesting pathogenesis tightly related to inflammation. To date, various targeted drugs have been developed treat diseases.

Currently, three classes of monoclonal antibodies targeting type 2 inflammation pathways are available in Italy for the treatment severe asthma: anti-IgE (Omalizumab), anti-IL-5/anti-IL-5Rα (Mepolizumab and Benralizumab), anti-IL-4Rα (Dupilumab). Numerous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) real-life studies have been conducted to define their efficacy identify baseline patients’ characteristics potentially predictive favorable outcomes. Switching another antibody is recommended case a lack benefits. The aim this work review current knowledge on impact switching biological therapies asthma as well predictors response or failure.

Alarmins are innate cytokines, including thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), interleukin-33 (IL-33), and interleukin-25 (IL-25), which mainly produced by airway epithelium exert a prominent role in asthma pathobiology. In particular, several environmental factors such as allergens, cigarette smoking, airborne pollutants, infectious agents trigger the release of alarmins, turn act upstream activators pro-inflammatory pathways underlying type 2 (T2-high) asthma. Indeed, alarmins directly activate group lymphoid cells (ILC2), eosinophils, basophils, mast also stimulate dendritic to drive commitment naïve T helper (Th) towards Th2 immunophenotype. Therefore, TSLP, IL-33, IL-25 represent suitable targets for add-on therapies severe Within this context, fully human anti-TSLP monoclonal antibody tezepelumab has been evaluated very promising randomized clinical trials. Tezepelumab other anti-alarmins thus likely become, near future, valuable therapeutic options biological treatment uncontrolled

The anti-thymic stromal lymphopoietin antibody (tezepelumab) has therapeutical potential for inadequately controlled asthma. However, evidence comparing tezepelumab with other biologics is scarce. To address this issue, we performed a network meta-analysis to compare and rank the efficacy of five treatments (tezepelumab, dupilumab, benralizumab, mepolizumab, placebo) in overall participants subgroups stratified by thresholds type 2 inflammatory biomarkers, including peripheral blood eosinophil count (PBEC) fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO). primary endpoints were annualized exacerbation rate (AER) any adverse events (AAEs). In ranking assessment using surface under cumulative curve (SUCRA) AER, ranked highest across (based on PBEC FeNO level thresholds). A significant difference was observed between dupilumab patient subgroup < 150, benralizumab ≥ 300 ≥150, respectively. There no incidence AAEs each pair treatment arms. These results provide basis development strategies asthma may guide basic, clinical, or translational research.

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a pleiotropic cytokine that has emerged as critical player in the development and progression of allergy asthma. It primarily produced by epithelial cells functions potent immune system activator. TSLP acts through interaction with its receptor complex, composed (TSLPR) interleukin-7 alpha chain (IL-7Rα), activating downstream complex signalling pathways. The major isoform, known long-form (lfTSLP), upregulated airway epithelium patients allergic diseases. More research warranted to explore precise mechanisms which short-form (sfTSLP) regulates responses. Understanding dynamic interplay between dysfunctional provides insights into underlying asthma pathogenesis. Targeting represents an important therapeutic strategy, it may upstream disrupt inflammatory cascade alleviate symptoms associated inflammation.
