12 Dec 2023Benralizumab appears superior to mepolizumab in severe eosinophilic asthma
Both mepolizumab and benralizumab are effective in improving the clinical outcomes of patients with severe eosinophilic asthma, as shown in a recent study. However, treatment with benralizumab appears to be better than mepolizumab in reducing exacerbations, improving forced expiratory volume, and depleting blood eosinophils.
