Topic
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) care is entering a transformative era. With persistent symptoms and exacerbations on triple therapy, biologics are reshaping treatment pathways. Dupilumab and mepolizumab are the first approved biologics for COPD, with additional agents targeting cytokines TSLP (Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin), IL (Interleukin)-33/ST2, and mucus hypersecretion on the horizon. However, significant gaps remain in clinician confidence with biomarkers, trial interpretation, and treatment selection. As multiple late-stage trials report in 2025–2026, education is critical to equip clinicians with the knowledge and frameworks to integrate biologics into personalized COPD management.
