    Abstract Clinically important deterioration (CID) is a composite tool developed to measure COPD's progression. It is a promising concept that can improve treatment choices for COPD patients because it provides a more holistic assessment of their status in everyday clinical practice. The post hoc analysis of several trials that were important for improving COPD treatment provides increasing evidence of the importance of assessing CID. These retrospective evaluations suggest that dual bronchodilation should be preferred over a single bronchodilator if treatment aims to reduce a possible clinical deterioration of COPD. Should dual bronchodilation prove ineffective, evidence shows that triple therapy, including an inhaled corticosteroid, is effective in preventing CID, especially in the presence of high blood eosinophil counts. CID initially included changes in FEV

    Abstract Introduction: The pharmacotherapy of asthma is a dynamic process that changes as our knowledge of the underlying pathophysiology and treatment of this disease continues to evolve. This implies the need for continuous revision of the recommendations of asthma guidelines and strategies.
    Areas covered: This review summarizes the latest key practical information on the pharmacological management of asthma in adults. We provide the background to the 2023 update of the GINA strategy report, focusing on changes and discussing areas of uncertainty. We review current and emerging pharmacotherapy for uncontrolled asthma, including synthetic agents and new biologics, and provide expert perspectives and opinions on the treatment of uncontrolled asthma.
    Expert opinion: The current pharmacological treatment of asthma, based on a step-by-step, control-based approach, with ICSs, LABAs and LAMAs being the mainstay generally provides good symptom control. Biologic therapies are often effective in treating T2

    Abstract Objective: Modification of the immune system with biologics raises theoretical concerns about the risk of infections but it is still unclear whether currently routinely used biologics in severe asthma may facilitate the development of pneumonia. Therefore, we aimed to determine whether omalizumab, mepolizumab, benralizumab, and dupilumab are associated with pneumonia in a real-world setting.
    Methods: A retrospective disproportionality analysis was performed using adverse event (AE) reports submitted to FAERS from January 2020 to September 30, 2023. MedDRA was used to identify infections and infestations and then pneumonia cases. ROR and PRR were used to measure disproportionality.
    Results: The percentage of reported cases of pneumonia compared to infections and infestations was highest for mepolizumab (36.8%), followed by omalizumab (32.6%), benralizumab (19.2%) and dupilumab (5.7%). We found a moderate or strong signal for increased risk of pneumonia with mepolizumab (ROR = 3.74, 95%CI 3.50-4.00), omalizumab (ROR = 3.26, 95%CI 3.06-3.49) and benralizumab (ROR = 2.65, 95%CI 2.49-2.83).
    Conclusions: Mepolizumab, omalizumab and benralizumab, but not dupilumab, were associated with high odds of reporting pneumonia. Our results represent only potential associations between these biologics and pneumonia but not causality. The nature of the FAERS database is such that the cause of the reported events is uncertain. Therefore, we can only roughly estimate the incidence of AEs by the signal strength (ROR value). Nevertheless, although causality could not be assessed, the signal from our study is interesting. We believe it deserves to be further substantiated by real-world studies with robust designs.

    Abstract Introduction: The bronchodilator response (BDR) depends on many factors, including genetic ones. Numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) influencing BDR have been identified. However, despite several studies in this field, genetic variations are not currently being utilized to support the use of bronchodilators.
    Areas covered: In this narrative review, the possible impact of genetic variants on BDR is discussed.
