Two educational symposia at San Diego, 2024, explore the role of type 2 inflammation and the related manifestations in atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria.

In this video soundbite from the EAACI 2025 symposium, Dr. Philippe Gevaert explains how biologic options for uncontrolled CRSwNP are increasing, and phase 3 studies of approved biologics show improved outcomes and decreased SCS use/surgery in patients with CRSwNP. Additionally, he explains how biologics targeting type 2 inflammatory pathophysiology potentially improve outcomes for eligible patients with co-existing CRSwNP and asthma.

The March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida brought together 4 dermatology experts to explore the evolving science of type 2 inflammation. Type 2 inflammation plays a central role in the pathophysiology of multiple dermatological diseases, driving chronic immune dysregulation that affects patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) prurigo nodularis (PN), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and bullous pemphigoid (BP). Understanding the mechanisms behind type 2 inflammation is key to advancing care and improving patient quality of life.

Many AD treatment goals focus on clinical manifestations, so that if a patient is free of lesions, their disease is considered well controlled. However, the inflammatory process underlying AD reaches far beyond the skin, affecting patients in unique ways at different stages of their lives. Education on the importance of treating AD beyond the skin and altering the treatment approach to fit the individual patient will help improve clinical management and reduce long-term patient burden.

Learn how FeNO, a noninvasive biomarker for type 2 inflammation, can be used to optimize care for asthma patients.

Prof Alan Irvine presents the latest clinical and real-world evidence supporting the potential for disease modification in atopic dermatitis, at EADV 2025.

Join Dr. Hanania to understand how to identify patients at risk of fixed airway obstruction in clinical settings.

Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she discusses on how IL-13 contributes to mucus plugging in asthma.

Join Dr. Leonard Bacharier as he discusses the definition of clinical remission in pediatric asthma and how it can represent a potential target in pediatric asthma management.
Explore the role of type 2 inflammation in the production of mucus plugs in asthma and the effects these plugs can have on patients.

Dr. Sonja Ständer and Dr. Shawn Kwatra discuss the unique features of prurigo nodularis (PN) as well as the characteristics that are shared with atopic dermatitis, and aim to raise awareness of PN among both physicians and patients.

Dr. Stephanie Christenson discusses the association between COPD exacerbations and the increased risks of morbidity and mortality
