DUPIXENT TARGETS UPPER AND LOWER AIRWAY INFLAMMATION IN CRSwNP AND ASTHMA
DUPIXENT is the first and only dual inhibitor of IL-4 and IL-13 signaling, two cytokines that contribute to underlying Type 2 inflammation in CRSwNP1,5,a
CRSwNP is predominantly characterized by Type 2 inflammation of the nose and paranasal sinuses and is frequently associated with comorbidities of the lower airway4-7
