Abstract (English): Introduction: Severe asthma affects approximately 5-10% of the asthmatic population and represents a significant burden on healthcare systems. The advent of biological therapies has prompted a redefinition of therapeutic goals, including clinical remission. This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of clinical remission in patients with severe asthma treated with biologic agents. Materials and methods: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted at Hospital Francisco Santojanni. Adult patients with type 2 (T2) severe asthma, according to GINA 2023, who had received biologic treatment for at least 12 months were included. Clinical remission was defined according to GEMA 5.4 and REMAS 2024 crite ria absence of exacerbations, no need for maintenance systemic corticosteroids, Asthma Control Test (ACT) ≥ 20, and FEV1 ≥ 80% of predicted. Clinical, functional, and demographic variables were analyzed before and after treatment. Results: Among 44 patients evaluated, 11 achieved clinical remission. The highest remission rates were observed with anti-IL-5 (7/12) and IL-5R (3/7). In contrast, remission was achieved in only 1 out of 12 patients treated with anti-IgE and in 1 out of 6 treated with anti- IL-4Rα. No significant clinical differences were found between patients who achieved remission and those who did not. Discussion: One in four patients with severe asthma achieved clinical remission with biologic therapy. Agents targeting the IL-5/IL-5R pathway showed greater efficacy. However, the small sample size limits the generaliz ability of the findings. Prospective studies are needed to identify predictors of remission and guide personalized treatment strategies.

Abstract (Spanish): Introducción: El asma grave representa entre el 5 y el 10% de la población asmática y constituye una carga para los sistemas de salud. La introducción de terapias biológicas ha impulsado la redefinición de objetivos te rapéuticos, incluyendo la remisión clínica. Este estudio evalúa la frecuencia de remisión clínica en pacientes con asma grave tratados con agentes biológicos. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospec tivo llevado a cabo en el Hospital Francisco Santojanni. Se incluyeron pacientes con asma grave tipo 2 (T2) según GINA 2023, tratados con biológicos durante al menos 12 meses. La remisión clínica se definió según GEMA 5.4 y REMAS 2024 ausencia de exacerbaciones, sin requerimiento de corticosteroides sistémicos de mantenimiento, test de control de asma (ACT) ≥ 20 y FEV1 ≥ 80% del valor predicho. Se analizaron variables clínicas, funcionales y demográficas antes y después del tratamiento. Resultados: De 44 pacientes evaluados, 11 alcanzaron remisión clínica. La tasa de remisión fue mayor con anti-IL-5, 7 de 12, IL-5R 3 de 7, con anti-IgE 1 de 12 y anti-IL-4Rα 1 de 6. No se observaron diferencias clínicas significativas entre los grupos con y sin remisión. Discusión: Una de cada cuatro personas con asma grave alcanzó remisión clínica con terapia biológica. Los agentes dirigidos a la vía IL-5/IL-5R mostraron mayor eficacia. Sin embargo, los tamaños maestrales reducidos limitan la generalización de los hallazgos. Son necesa rios estudios prospectivos que identifiquen predictores de remisión y orienten el tratamiento personalizado. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
