BACKGROUND: Omalizumab has demonstrated efficacy in clinical trials of patients with asthma, but real-world data are needed.OBJECTIVE: To assess outcomes after omalizumab initiation in patients with asthma in a real-world setting.METHODS: Patients aged 12 years and older with allergic asthma who were candidates for omalizumab on the basis of physician-assessed need were enrolled in a US-based, prospective, single-arm, 48-week multicenter study, the Prospective Observational Study to Evaluate Predictors of Clinical Effectiveness in Response to Omalizumab. Monthly assessments included exacerbations, health care utilization, asthma control test (ACT), and adverse events. At baseline, 6 months, and end of study, biomarkers (blood eosinophils and fractional exhaled nitric oxide) were collected and spirometry performed.RESULTS: Of 806 enrollees, 801 (99.4%) received omalizumab and 622 (77.2%) completed the study. The exacerbation rate significantly improved from a mean of 3.00-3.28 in the 12 months before baseline to 0.78-1.37 through month 12 (P
