Efficacy of mepolizumab and omalizumab combination therapy in uncontrolled asthma

Combined use of Anti-Ig E (omalizumab) and Anti IL 5 (mepolizumab) with a synergistic effect by acting through both pathways, especially in patients with allergic asthma and high levels of both total Ig E and eosinophilia, was found to be effective and no side effects were observed in long-term follow-up. Combination therapy with omalizumab and mepolizumab may become a safe option in patients with severe allergic asthma with a Type 2 inflammatory phenotype who cannot be controlled with each biologic agent.
