TYPE 2 INFLAMMATION OCCURS IN
UP TO 84% OF ADULT PATIENTS
WITH ASTHMA1,2

Asthma is a heterogeneous disease encompassing a range of phenotypes and biomarkers3-7

No single biomarker captures the full range of asthma phenotypes, and relying on only a narrow range of biomarkers may leave Type 2 inflammation suboptimally controlled3-7

Type 2 inflammation can be detected in patients through individual
biomarkers, such as EOS, IgE, and FeNO, or through combinations of
these markers8,9

Is there more to asthma than allergic and eosinophilic phenotypes?

EOS, eosinophils; FeNO, fractional exhaled nitric oxide.
