About CINQAIR

An anti–IL-5 for the add-on maintenance treatment of adults with severe asthma and an eosinophilic phenotype.1

Limitations of Use: CINQAIR is not indicated for:

  • treatment of other eosinophilic conditions
  • relief of acute bronchospasm or status asthmaticus

CINQAIR is a humanized monoclonal anti–IL-5 antibody that inhibits IL-5 from binding eosinophils.1

The mechanism of CINQAIR action in asthma has not been definitively established.1

Review data for the reduction of blood eosinophils

CINQAIR may be an appropriate treatment for patients who are 18 years of age and older with:

  • Severe asthma that is inadequately controlled despite standard of care (medium-high dose ICSs with LABAs)1-3

    • Symptoms >2 days a week 
    • SABA use for symptom control >2 days a week activities 
    • Interference with daily activities
  • At least 1 asthma exacerbation requiring use of OCSs over the past 12 months1,4
  • Compromised lung function (FEV1 <80% predicted)2,3
  • A history of elevated blood EOS count1*

EOS=eosinophils; FEV1=forced expiratory volume in one second; ICSs=inhaled corticosteroids; IL-5=interleukin-5; LABAs=long-acting beta agonists; OCSs=oral (systemic) corticosteroids; SABA=short-acting beta agonist.

*Blood EOS ≥400/mcL represents the patient population in CINQAIR clinical trials I, II, and III.1
