Summary

This small pilot study tested whether inhaling a drug called rh-DNase for 4 weeks could help people with neutrophilic asthma, a type that often doesn't respond well to standard treatments. Nineteen adults with confirmed asthma and signs of airway inflammation took part. The goal was to see if the treatment improved lung function and asthma symptom control.
