Highlight

  • Tezepelumab markedly reduced annualized asthma exacerbation rate (AAER) by 70% in a diverse, real-world US cohort with severe uncontrolled asthma (SUA).
  • Significant improvements in lung function (FEV1) and quality of life measures were noted across diverse asthma phenotypes, including low eosinophil counts and allergic status.
  • Underrepresented populations—Black/African American patients, adolescents, those with smoking history, and comorbid COPD—experienced similarly substantial benefits.
  • No new safety concerns emerged over 12 months, supporting tezepelumab’s favorable risk-benefit profile in heterogeneous SUA patients.
