a Symptoms include headache, fatigue and rash.
b Symptoms include pain, redness, swelling and pruritus. Most events were mild. 67% of events resolved within ≤7 days and 50% resolved within ≤2 days.1
c ≥5 patients in both treatment arms across both studies.
d Stable asthma maintenance therapy consisted of medium- to high-dose ICS (≥440 μg FP HFA daily or a clinically comparable regimen) plus at least one additional controller such as LABA or LAMA, with or without OCS (standard asthma care excluding biologics).
e Worsening of asthma requiring systemic corticosteroids (SCS), hospitalization or an emergency department visit. SCS use was defined as a single intramuscular dose or oral/intravenous administration for ≥3 days. For participants receiving maintenance SCS therapy, at least a doubling of the existing dose for ≥3 days was required.
f The SWIFT-1/2 studies included patients with severe asthma receiving either medium- or high-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) plus at least one additional controller medication. The full SWIFT-1/2 data set is included in the EXDENSUR SmPC. Results presented here are, as per SmPC, based on the overall study population. In Belgium, EXDENSUR is indicated as add-on maintenance treatment for severe asthma with type 2 inflammation in patients aged ≥12 years who are inadequately controlled despite high-dose ICS plus another asthma controller.1,4
EXDENSUR is indicated as add-on therapy with intranasal corticosteroids for the treatment of adult patients with severe CRSwNP for whom therapy with systemic corticosteroids and/or surgery do not provide adequate disease control.1
