DUPIXENT is the only biologic that combines the ability to1-3:
Reduce
Exacerbations
Up to
In NOTUS, annualized rate of moderate or severe exacerbations for DUPIXENT + triple therapy at Week 52 (0.86 exacerbations per year [n=470] vs 1.30 for placebo + triple therapy [n=465]. Rate ratio 0.66 (95% CI: 0.54, 0.82); P<0.001; primary endpoint)1,a
In BOREAS, 30% reduction (0.78 vs 1.10) in moderate or severe exacerbations for DUPIXENT + triple therapy (n=468) vs placebo + triple therapy (n=471) Rate ratio 0.70 (95% CI: 0.58, 0.86). P<0.001; primary endpoint1-3

Numerical improvement in

FEV1
- 158 mL numerical improvement for DUPIXENT + triple therapy (n=468) vs 84 mL for placebo + triple therapy (n=471) at Week 121

- 134 mL numerical improvement for DUPIXENT + triple therapy (n=470) vs 67 mL for placebo + triple therapy (n=465) at Week 121
Post-bronchodilator lung function results are descriptive. Definitive conclusions cannot be made.
Improvement in quality of life as measured by SGRQ1,2,4

51% of patients reported a clinically meaningful (≥4-point) improvement in SGRQ scores at Week 52 with DUPIXENT + triple therapy vs 43% for placebo + triple therapy (N=939; OR: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.10, 1.89; P=0.009).

- 51% responder rate at Week 52 for subjects treated with DUPIXENT + triple therapy vs 47% for placebo + triple therapy (N=721; OR: 1.16; 95% CI: 0.86,1.58)1,6
NOTUS results are descriptive. Definitive conclusions cannot be made.
Target
TWO OF THE KEY DRIVERS OF TYPE 2
INFLAMMATION
IL-4 and IL-13 are two of the key drivers of local and systemic inflammation1
The mechanism of dupilumab action has not been definitively established.1
- The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2%) are viral infection, headache, nasopharyngitis, back pain, diarrhea, arthralgia, urinary tract infection, local administration reaction, rhinitis, eosinophilia, toothache, and gastritis1
- aModerate exacerbations were exacerbations that resulted in treatment with a systemic glucocorticoid, an antibiotic agent, or both. Severe exacerbations were exacerbations that led to hospitalization or an emergency department visit or that resulted in death.1-3
-
30% reduction in the annualized rate of moderate or severe exacerbations for DUPIXENT + triple therapy (0.78 exacerbations per year [n=468] vs 1.10 for placebo + triple therapy
[n=471]; rate ratio: 0.70 [95% CI: 0.58, 0.86] P<0.001)a
-
34% reduction in the annualized rate of moderate or severe exacerbations for DUPIXENT + triple therapy (0.86 exacerbations per year [n=470] vs 1.30 for placebo + triple therapy
[n=465]; rate ratio: 0.66 [95% CI: 0.54, 0.82] P<0.001)a

Based on pooled analysis of BOREAS and NOTUS

on DUPIXENT,

moderate or severe
exacerbation was prevented5
- The annualized rate of moderate or severe exacerbations for the DUPIXENT and placebo arms in the pooled analysis was 0.794 and 1.156, respectively (rate ratio 0.687, 95% CI 0.595, 0.793)
Definitive conclusions cannot be reached as the pre-specified pooled analysis was not controlled for multiplicity and the low exacerbation rate observed in the control group might limit the generalizability of our findings.
