What a Control-Based Asthma Management Strategy Looks Like
Program Overview
The introduction of biologics and updated understanding of asthma as a disease has changed our treatment approach to a more tailored, personalized strategy. This activity will take you through a pathophysiology-guided understanding of the various agents’ pharmacology. It will dive into a side-by-side exploration of safety and efficacy data for new and emerging treatments for asthma, reinforced by clinical case scenarios, expert commentary, interactive tools, and downloadable resources—all packaged and delivered in a visually impactful infographic design.
The target audience for this activity is pulmonary and allergy/immunology providers including physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who manage patients with asthma.
Educational Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
Identify patients with poorly-controlled or difficult-to-treat asthma who are eligible for step-up therapies, including new and emerging biologics
Incorporate new and emerging targeted biologics into the management of patients with severe or poorly-controlled asthma, when appropriate
