Beyond Triple Therapy: Anti-Type 2 Biologic Therapies for Eosinophilic COPD and Respiratory Comorbidities - a Review of Clinical Evidence.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purpose of reviewTo review current evidence on biologic therapies targeting type 2 inflammation in patients with eosinophilic COPD and respiratory comorbidities who remain uncontrolled despite optimized triple inhaled therapy. RECENT
findingsRecent phase 3 trials have shown that dupilumab provides the most consistent benefit in eosinophilic COPD, reducing exacerbations and improving lung function and quality of life. Mepolizumab has shown a more limited effect, mainly on exacerbation reduction, whereas benralizumab has not demonstrated clear clinical benefit. Blood eosinophil count remains the main biomarker for treatment selection. Biologic therapies are advancing precision medicine in COPD, with dupilumab currently showing the strongest overall evidence. Careful patient selection is essential. Broader phenotyping may further improve management, as comorbidities such as chronic rhinosinusitis may contribute to symptom burden and support a multidisciplinary approach. Future studies should clarify long-term outcomes and optimal biologic selection.
