Monday, December 5, 2022

EXTON, Pa., Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sanofi/Regeneron significantly changed the EoE treatment landscape last May when the FDA approved Dupixent (dupilumab) to treat adult and pediatric patients suffering from eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Spherix Global Insights' recent research via their Market Dynamix™ EoE service suggests dupilumab's first mover advantage may yield greater dividends when taking into account physician experience managing the disease.

Key Points: 
  • While both gastroenterologists and allergists express satisfaction with Dupixent, their interest in more advanced options remains high, primarily driven by the common failures in first- and second-line treatment.
  • When asked about the appropriate placement of biologics in the treatment pathway, allergists feel strongly about earlier introduction versus their gastro counterparts.
  • Data suggests that both specialties pursue the same primary clinical outcome of improving patients' ability to swallow (reduced dysphagia) using different means.
  • Surmounting access and affordability barriers for advanced medication is cited by both specialties as key to helping patients achieve the best clinical outcome.
