Key Points

  • This case report aims to explore the effects of tezepelumab on a patient with severe T2-low asthma and CRSwNP.
  • Administered tezepelumab (210 mg subcutaneously) every 4 weeks.
  • Evaluated clinical and functional outcomes after three doses and 6 months of therapy.
  • Patient showed significant clinical and functional benefits after treatment with tezepelumab.
  • Therapeutic intervention provided fast and effective action in managing severe asthma symptoms.

Abstract

Severe asthma is a heterogeneous disease typically characterized by inadequate symptom control, even with frequent oral corticosteroids, large doses of inhaled corticosteroids, and long-acting β 2-adrenergic agonists. The latest Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) recommendations suggest adding biological therapies at Step 5 to optimize standard treatments. Although there is a wide range of therapeutic options for T2-high asthma, unfortunately, for T2-low asthma, we still have limited therapeutic choices. Our case report refers to a 64-year-old woman with severe T2-low asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) who had already tested other standard therapies without clinical or functional benefits. She is being treated with tezepelumab (210 mg subcutaneous injection, administered every 4 weeks), an antithymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) human monoclonal antibody. After the third dose, she showed significant clinical and functional benefits, which were also confirmed after 6 months of add-on biological therapy with anti-TSLP. In conclusion, this case study suggests that tezepelumab can provide rapid and effective therapeutic action in patients with severe T2-low asthma and nasal polyposis.
