New drug could tame severe asthma and fungal allergy
NCT ID NCT07530770
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a drug called benralizumab (Fasenra) in 20 adults with severe asthma and a fungal allergy called ABPA. The goal is to see if it can reduce asthma flare-ups that need steroids and improve quality of life. Participants receive the drug as a shot under the skin, and researchers track their progress over time.

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for people with severe asthma and ABPA, potentially reducing the need for steroids.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work as hoped or could have side effects.
