DUPIXENT SHOWED IMPROVEMENT IN LUNG FUNCTION1
Lung function improvement sustained through Week 52
Post‑bronchodilator FEV1
Change in post‑bronchodilator FEV1 from baseline at Week 12 and Week 52 (ITT population; secondary endpoint)1,2
Patients administered DUPIXENT + SOC saw numerical improvement in post‑bronchodilator FEV1 of 134 mL at Week 12 (n=470) and 127 mL at Week 52 (n=362), compared with 67 mL at Week 12 (n=465) and 59 mL at Week 52 (n=359) in patients receiving placebo + SOC (LSM change from baseline, ITT population)1
Post-bronchodilator lung function results are descriptive. Definitive conclusions cannot be made.
Pre‑bronchodilator FEV1
Significant improvements of similar magnitude were observed in change from baseline in pre-
bronchodilator
FEV1 at Weeks 12 and 52 in subjects treated with DUPIXENT compared to placebo
across the BOREAS and NOTUS trials.1

St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) total score is a patient self-measure of cough, sputum production, breathlessness, and wheezing, as well as disturbances to daily physical activity and psychosocial function. The SGRQ is a 50-item questionnaire designed to measure and quantify health status in adult patients with chronic airflow limitation. Higher score indicates greater disease severity.2,5
