DUPIXENT specifically targets the IL-4α receptor in severe asthma1–3

The interleukins; IL-4 and IL-13, are important in the development of Type 2 inflammation and its downstream effects in severe asthma2–7

DUPIXENT is a fully human monoclonal antibody for administration by subcutaneous injecton1

DUPIXENT inhibits IL-4 and IL-13 signalling1,2

DUPIXENT:

Binds specifically to the IL-4Rα subunit shared by the receptor complexes for IL-4 and IL-131–4

Selectively inhibits the signalling of IL-4 via the Type 1 and 2 receptors for IL-41–4

Selectively inhibits IL-13 signalling via the Type 2 receptor for IL-131–4

Inhibition of IL-4 and IL-13 markedly decreases:1,2

Total and
allergen-specific IgE

Eosinophilic

Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), a marker
of IL-13 related to lung inflammation
