JAMA. 2019;321(10):1000-1001. doi:10.1001/jama.2019.0080

The FDA has approved the subcutaneously injected monoclonal antibody dupilumab (Dupixent – Sanofi/Regeneron) for add-on maintenance treatment of patients ≥12 years old with moderate to severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype or with oral corticosteroid-dependent asthma. Dupilumab was approved earlier to treat adults with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis inadequately controlled with topical therapies.1
