Remission of Asthma: Review of Consensus Statement (New Webinar)

November 12 @ 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Free Webinar | November 12, 2024 | 12:00 PM ET

With the introduction of new therapies for asthma like biologics, achieving disease remission has become a new goal of treatment and classifying asthma control is in transition. In December 2023, the Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology published a consensus statement between the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology, and American Thoracic Society to update the definition of clinical remission in asthma. In this webinar, learn more about the consensus statement and the outcomes of the working group.
