Breve descrizione dei contenuti:
In patients with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis in remission phase and persisting severe steroid-dependent asthma, mepolizumab 100 mg/4 wk prevents vasculitis relapse and maintains asthma control. An “asthma-tailored” dose may be considered in the maintenance phase of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis as a steroid/immunosuppressive-sparing agent.
