Researchers are conducting a prospective observational study to examine asthma control, health-related quality of life HRQL, lung function, and asthma medication use in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma treated with benralizumab in routine clinical practice settings in Germany. The study aims to gather real-world evidence on these patients over a 52-week period. Participants will be treated with benralizumab as part of their standard care, and no additional treatment will be assigned by the study. Asthma control will be assessed using the Asthma Control Test ACT and the Asthma Impairment and Risk Questionnaire AIRQae at various timepoints. Health-related quality of life will be measured using the mini Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire miniAQLQ at baseline and follow-up visits. Patients will record their weekly asthma medication intake using either paper or electronic diaries throughout the study. During the study, participants will attend routine follow-up visits where investigators will collect clinical assessments and questionnaire data. Researchers will monitor changes in asthma control, lung function parameters, medication use, and patient-reported outcomes up to 52 weeks after the first dose of benralizumab. The primary outcomes include changes in ACT scores and inhaled corticosteroid use, while secondary outcomes cover remission criteria, lung function, biomarkers, exacerbation rates, and quality of life measures.
