Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with COPD who remain uncontrolled on LAMA/LABA/ICS (or LAMA/LABA if ICS are not appropriate), have elevated blood eosinophils, and have been newly started on dupilumab independent of the study are the ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Patients without elevated blood eosinophils, those already well controlled on standard inhaled therapies, or those in whom dupilumab is contraindicated are unlikely to benefit from this treatment.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a non-interventional, observational study that follows adults with COPD who have been newly started on dupilumab by their treating physician. Patients receive dupilumab according to the approved product label and no treatment is assigned by the study. Clinical data, safety events, and patient-reported outcomes including health-related quality of life are collected from routine visits over 24 months. All data are pseudonymized and documented based on clinical practice.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, dupilumab could improve symptoms and quality of life for patients with eosinophilic, uncontrolled COPD in real-world practice.

How similar studies have gone: Dupilumab has demonstrated benefit in other type 2 inflammatory diseases such as asthma and atopic dermatitis, but real-world evidence and experience in COPD remain limited and this application is relatively novel.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* Participants willing and able to sign informed consent for use of their pseudonymized clinical data within the present non-intervention study.
* Adult participants.
* Participants with uncontrolled Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) despite long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA)/ long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA)/ Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS) (or LAMA/LABA if ICS are not appropriate) therapy and elevated blood eosinophils
* Participants newly initiated on dupilumab treatment as indicated in the dupilumab Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) in the specified label for COPD, determined by the treating physician, and independent of participation in the non-interventional study (NIS).

Exclusion Criteria:

* Participants not eligible for dupilumab treatment according to SmPC.
* Participation in an ongoing interventional or observational study or participation in an interventional or observational study up to 12 months before enrolment that might, in the treating physician's opinion, influence the assessments for the current study.
* Any acute or chronic condition that, in the treating physician´s opinion, would limit the participants´s ability to complete questionnaires or to participate in this study or impact the interpretation of the results.
* Participants hospitalized due to an exacerbation of their COPD within the last 4 weeks prior to enrolment.
