Join allergist Dr. Nicole Chase and dermatologist Dr. Jason Hawkes as they dispel common myths in the management of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). They offer practical, empathetic strategies to move beyond unnecessary diagnostics and delays, focusing instead on urgent treatment escalation and effective management to reduce the profound burden of uncontrolled CSU on patients.
This is the full presentation of the March 2025 ADVENT cross-dermatology symposium, hosted in Orlando, Florida, presenting the latest information around type 2 inflammation and its association with atopic dermatitis (AD), prurigo nodularis (PN), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and bullous pemphigoid (BP).

Dr. Palomares discusses how type 2 inflammation, an aberrant immune response, underlies skin diseases like atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria, linking to their clinical symptoms.

Prof. Peter Hellings discusses the interconnection between the pathophysiology, burden and clinical management of uncontrolled and/or severe CRSwNP

This video clip from the EAACI 2024 symposium highlights that a multidisciplinary approach is essential for the treatment of asthma.

Dr. Oscar Palomares explains that IL-4 and IL-13 are crucial cytokines in type 2 inflammation, playing both unique and overlapping roles, including T cell expansion and contributing to clinical symptoms in chronic diseases.

Prof. Thomas Bieber explores early intervention and disease modification in atopic dermatitis.

Prof. Mullol share his opinion on connection between loss of smell and sleep disorder in patients with CRSwNP.

This video clip from the EAACI 2024 symposium discusses whether patients with CRSwNP should undergo a surgery.

Prof. Claus Bachert describes how type 2 inflammation drives CRSwNP.

In this video soundbite from the EAACI 2025 symposium, Dr. Brian Lipworth discusses that co-existing type 2 inflammatory diseases are common in patients with CRSwNP & increasing severity of asthma is associated with higher severity of CRS and prevalence of nasal polyps. Additionally, he explains that patient burden is substantially greater when asthma and CRSwNP are co-existing.

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.
