A SIGNIFICANT UNMET MEDICAL
NEED REMAINS FOR MANY
PATIENTS WITH EoE1

Current standard-of-care therapies for
eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) do not fully address Type 2 inflammation1-4

There remains an unmet need to reduce esophageal dysfunction and eosinophil-predominant inflammation in order to improve endoscopic signs, clinical symptoms, and quality of life in
patients with EoE.

Eosinophilic esophagitis management approaches include1,3-7:

  • Food elimination diets
  • Swallowed topical corticosteroids
  • Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)
  • Esophageal dilation
  • Upper endoscopy for the management of esophageal food impaction
