Survey on patient experiences with biologic treatments for severe asthma

Is this trial a fit for you?

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

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to gather insights from patients with severe asthma regarding their experiences with biologic treatments. A total of 400 patients will be recruited from specialized severe asthma centers, where they will complete a survey assessing their perceptions of treatment effectiveness, side effects, and overall satisfaction. The survey will be conducted online, ensuring that participants can respond independently and in their native languages. The findings will provide valuable patient-centered data that may inform future treatment approaches and improve care for individuals with severe asthma.

Why it matters

Who can join: the full rules

Inclusion Criteria:

Receiving a biologic treatment for at least 6 months.

• But has not been on the treatment for longer than 18 months. Note: In clinical practice, a 12-month trial of biologic treatments is needed before a decision to stop/switch treatment is made. Therefore, our inclusion criteria will capture people who are non-responders to biologic treatments.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients will be excluded if they are unwilling/unable to provide consent to use their data.
* Patients who have switched biologics will also be excluded.
* In the opinion of the physician responsible for the care of the patient, the patient has a condition, other than asthma which is significantly contributing to their respiratory symptoms, e.g. lung cancer, heart failure or severe COPD.
