Role of Monoclonal Antibodies in the Treatment of Asthma
BACKGROUND: Patients with severe refractory asthma represent a small subset of the asthmatic population (between 5% and 10% of all patients) but are the greatest burden to the health care system. New treatment approaches developed to manage some of the phenotypes of severe refractory asthma have inc...
