Presentations Span Teva's Respiratory Portfolio – including Rescue, Maintenance Inhalers and Biologic Asthma Treatment
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., (NYSE and TASE: TEVA) today announced that five company-sponsored abstracts will be presented at the 2017 American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in Boston, October 26-30, 2017.
Among the accepted abstracts, data from two analyses examined the efficacy of CINQAIR® IV (reslizumab) Injection, a humanized interleukin-5 antagonist monoclonal antibody for the treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma. One abstract presents a post-hoc analysis, measuring the direct effect of CINQAIR® on spirometric "lung age," and the second presents a post-hoc analysis examining the impact of CINQAIR® on lung function and clinical asthma exacerbations in patients with low baseline lung function.
A post-hoc analysis studied the efficacy of ArmonAir™ RespiClick® (fluticasone propionate) Inhalation Powder and AirDuo RespiClick® (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Powder in patients previously treated with the same medication administered in alternative inhalers.
The following Teva-sponsored data will be presented:
