The Respiratory Effectiveness Group (REG) Summit, which took place on 28–29 June 2014, provided clinicians, general practitioners, pulmonologists, and representatives from the industry with the opportunity to discuss real-life effectiveness research in respiratory disease. This white paper presents research from studies identified of particular relevant to the asthma and COPD markets which revealed:

 

  • The potential benefits that Symbicort (budesonide/formoterol; AstraZeneca) may have over Spiriva (tiotropium; Boehringer Ingelheim) in the treatment of COPD in terms of both patient outcomes, as assessed by measuring COPD exacerbations, and healthcare utilization costs.
  • The value of add-on Spiriva therapy in asthma as Boehringer Ingelheim prepares to expand Spiriva’s indications in the EU.
  • That inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)/long-acting beta 2 agonist (LABA) therapy can improve long-term outcomes among patients that have experienced a severe asthma exacerbation.
  • That the prescribing behavior of physicians does not necessarily fall in line with step-up therapy guidelines.

Research highlights from this whitepaper include:
