First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether dupilumab, a drug that blocks certain immune signals, can reduce signs of autoimmunity in the airways of people with severe asthma. 30 patients were followed for 4 months. The goal was to see if this approach could help those who don't get better with standard treatments.
