NOTUS trial just presented at #ATS2024 by @suryapbhatt @uabmedicine and published @NEJM: dupilumab reduced exacerbations by 1/3 in #COPD patients with eosinophils >300. Confirms prior BOREAS trial results.
Phase 2 COURSE study just presented at #ATS2024 by Dave Singh @OfficialUoM: tezepelumab did not significantly reduce #COPD exacerbations overall, but trends suggested greater benefits in those with higher Th2 inflammation. Suggests phase 3 study should target this population.
ARISE study just presented at #ATS by @CLDaleyMD @NJHealth: liposomal amikacin as add-on to azithromycin + ethambutol was more likely to achieve microbiological clearance of MAC lung disease at 6 months. Also validated QOL-B RD as a PRO measure in MAC.
Huge congrats to Andrea Gershon @uoftmedicine, recipient of the @ATS_BSHSR Lifetime Achievement Award at #ATS2024!
Dmitry Rosenberg @uoftmedicine presenting pilot RCT of cognitive-physical home-based pulmonary rehabilitation right now at #ATS2024. Proud to be collaborating with him on this!
New study of implications of eliminating race adjustment in PFT equations just presented at #ATS2024 by @JamesADiao: race-neutral interpretation reclassified millions of patients with implications on work, disability eligibility and transplant priority but not clinical outcomes
BICS trial just presented at #ATS2024 by @doclip1 and published @JAMA_current: bisoprolol did not reduce exacerbations in GOLD E #COPD, but did not cause harm either. We should give beta blockers to COPD patients with cardiovascular indications but it won’t help their COPD
BEACON study just presented at #ATS2024 by Jadwiga Wedzicha @imperial_SoM: CT scans can find evidence of early #COPD in young smokers 30-45
UCAP study just presented at #ATS2024 bu Shawn Aaron @uOttawaMed and published @NEJM: case-finding and subspecialist treatment of asthma and COPD reduced healthcare utilization by half and improved quality of life and lung function. We need to find these patients!
ZEPHYRUS-1 just presented at #ATS2024 and published @JAMA_current: pamrevlumab did not slow FVC decline in #IPF. Disappointing that yet another biologic for IPF has failed
