¸ñÀû: Recent advancements have identified biologic therapies as potent
options
for treating chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Ensuring patient
adherence is
key to achieving the best results. However, there is a paucity of
research examining the factors influencing adherence to biologic
therapies. This study focuses on determining the variables
impacting
adherence to dupilumab and omalizumab in individuals with CRS. ¹æ¹ý:We evaluated the medical records of CRS patients, with or without
nasal
polyps, who were prescribed monthly treatments of dupilumab or
omalizumab from 2021 to 2023 at four affiliated medical
institutions of
The Catholic University of Korea. Exclusion criteria included
individuals below 18 years and those using biologics for non-CRS
conditions. Patients who received injections at intervals of less
than 2
months continuously for at least 6 months were classified into
Group A
(adherent), while others were placed in Group B (non-adherent).
We
compared clinical characteristics across groups and adherence
rates
between dupilumab and omalizumab users. °á°ú:The study incorporated 45 patients (26 dupilumab users, 18 omalizumab
users, and 1 both user). Adherent patients showed significantly higher
olfactory identification test scores (Dupilumab users: 63.2 vs. 37.0,
P = 0.043; Omalizumab users: 37.5 vs. 20.8, P = 0.044; Total study
population: 59.7 vs. 30.5, P = 0.002). Lower adherence was observed in
patients initiating treatment in summer (P = 0.053, 0.529, and 0.017
for dupilumab users, omalizumab users, and total study population,
respectively). No marked difference was noted in body mass index,
asthma presence, initial nasal symptoms, immunoglobulin E levels,
blood eosinophils, or Lund-Mackay CT scores between the groups.
Treatment initiation peaked in spring (37.8%), while discontinuations
were highest in winter, in the total study population (44.4%), as well
as in dupilumab users (46.2%) and omalizumab users (44.4%).
Furthermore, winter had the lowest rates of injection administration
in the total study population (19.4%), in dupilumab users (19.9%), and
in omalizumab users (15.7%), respectively. There was no significant
adherence discrepancy between dupilumab and omalizumab users. °á·Ð:Higher olfactory function test scores in adherent patients
indicates a
prolonged recovery to normal smell function in anosmic patients
compared to hyposmic ones, impacting their adherence. Seasonal
variations in nasal symptoms and hospital accessibility could
contribute to seasonal differences in adherence. Further
exploration
into biologic therapy adherence is critical for optimizing CRS
treatment efficacy. |
