Background: The anti-immunoglobulin E monoclonal antibody, omalizumab, is used to treat severe asthma and has the potential to ameliorate airway inflammation. However, the effect of omalizumab in ameliorating upper airway inflammation has not been fully elucidated.Objective: We investigated the association of upper and lower airway inflammation with the response to omalizumab treatment.Methods: We used the Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness to assess the efficacy of omalizumab in treating 16 patients with severe asthma. We also investigated the symptom score, short-acting β-agonist inhaler use, pulmonary function, biomarkers, computed tomography scans, and nasal mucosa pathology at omalizumab initiation and after four months of treatment.Results: When the fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and the percentage of sputum eosinophil were used as indicators of lower airway inflammation, positive correlations were found between CD20 B-cell, mast cell, and eosinophil counts in the nasal mucosa. Improved asthma symptoms were observed in 12 of the 16 severe asthma cases. The FeNO and eosinophil levels in the nasal tissue, prior to the administration of omalizumab were predictors of the response to asthma treatment.Conclusions: These findings suggest heterogeneity among people with severe asthma. In addition, the phenotype associated with response to omalizumab, leading to improvement in asthma symptoms, comprises upper airway eosinophilia and high FeNO levels.
