Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria

be eligible for enrolment into this study if all of the following criteria are met:
1. Male or female participants aged 12 years or older at the time of signing the ICF or assent.
2. Prescribed treatment with tezepelumab according to SmPC and local market reimbursement criteria. If a patient is enrolled to the study after tezepelumab initiation, a period between treatment initiation and enrolment should be no more than 4 weeks.
3. Diagnosis of asthma established for at least 52 weeks prior to tezepelumab initiation and symptoms confirmed by the Investigator not to be due to alternative diagnoses.
4. Received at least one prescription of medium or high doses of ICS during the 52 weeks prior to tezepelumab initiation, with medium or high doses of ICS defined according to the GINA 2022 (see below Note #1).
5. Use of additional asthma maintenance controller medication(s) in addition to ICS (e.g., LABA, leukotriene receptor inhibitors, theophylline, LAMA, and cromones) for at least 52 weeks prior to tezepelumab initiation. The additional maintenance controller medication may be contained in a combination product (e.g., ICS/LABA).
6. Documented history of at least 2 severe asthma exacerbations during the 52 weeks prior to tezepelumab initiation. For participants receiving prior biologic drugs for ≥ 8 months, at least 1 severe exacerbation must have occurred on prior biologic treatment. Participants are excluded if, in the opinion of the Investigator, prior biologic treatment had provided significant clinical benefit in the past 52 weeks, despite the participant experiencing ≥ 2 severe exacerbations during 52 weeks prior to tezepelumab initiation.
7. Individuals with ACQ-5 score ≥ 1.5 (indicating inadequate asthma symptom control) at enrolment or up to 12 weeks before enrolment.
8. Currently receive care from specialist physicians (e.g., pulmonologists and/or allergists) at the Investigator’s or sub-Investigator’s site.
9. Provision of signed and dated written informed consent, including assent (informed consent for participants under 18 years old).
10. Participants are able to read, understand and complete the questionnaires required by the protocol.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Any contraindication to tezepelumab as per the approved product SmPC in Russia or in the opinion of the Investigator.
2. Administration of concurrent biologic drug for asthma since the index date, except for stable allergen immunotherapy (defined as a stable dose and regimen at the time of enrolment). Enrolment of patients who were switched from other biologic(s) to tezepelumab is allowed, and an acceptable timeframe since the last prior asthma biologic drug is ≥ 30 days. The number of participants with prior biologic treatment (switching to tezepelumab) should be targeted at 20% or less at each site.
3. Participation in an observational study that might, in the Investigator’s opinion, influence the assessment for the current study, or participation in an interventional clinical trial in the last 3 months.
4. Pregnancy or lactation period.

This is a multi-centre, retrospective-prospective, non-comparative and non-interventional (observational) cohort study involving primary and secondary data collection within real-world settings of participants who initiate tezepelumab for treatment of severe uncontrolled asthma. Participants of the study will be the patients eligible for tezepelumab treatment based on the assessment in accordance with the approved product Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) in Russia. The administration of tezepelumab will be independent of this study (i.e., a decision of tezepelumab initiation is based on the physician’s choice and regulatory and clinical features, not on recruitment/participation in the study). Tezepelumab is indicated as an add-on maintenance treatment for severe asthma, therefore, patients will continue background asthma therapy throughout the study, irrespective of their decision to participate in this study or not. 110 eligible participants of both sexes, aged 12 years or older will be treated with tezepelumab available in the market and according to the Russian reimbursement policies in approximately 20 sites. In eligible participants who agree to take part in the study, the enrolment date is defined as the date of informed consent or assent. After enrolment and evaluation of inclusion/exclusion criteria, study participants will commence tezepelumab treatment as per the physician’s decision and following the local product SmPC. The index date is defined as the date when participants have received the first dose of tezepelumab. The enrolment period is the period between enrolment date and index date. Additionally, participants may be enrolled in this study up to 4 weeks after the first dose of tezepelumab, but no longer, to avoid responder bias. Participants will be followed for a maximum period of 52 weeks after index date, irrespective of treatment discontinuation. Patient-reported outcomes – the primary endpoint (ACQ-5) and SNOT-22 will be retrospectively collected during enrolment for all patients (i.e. the most recent available values in the 52 weeks prior to index date), and prospectively collected at suggested visits at Weeks 4, 12, 24, and 52 following index date. For patients who initiate treatment after being enrolled into the study the baseline value may be collected prospectively after enrolment before start of treatment. The baseline period is defined as the 52 weeks prior to the index date. Outcomes of interest, such as severe asthma exacerbations, medication use, and healthcare resource utilization, will be collected during enrolment retrospectively for the baseline period (52 weeks prior to the index date) and then prospectively at Weeks 4, 12, 24, and 52 following index date. Overall expected duration of the study (from the first patient inclusion to the last patient last visit) is about 2 years or until 110 eligible patients are included to the study and data on these patients are collected, whichever occurs first. As an observational, this study does not imply any intervention into a routine clinical practice, including choice of treatment modality or additional diagnostic methods.
