The agency's action date is October 20.
  • DUPIXENT is currently approved the U.S. for atopic dermatitis.
  • Dupilumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, works by binding to (inhibiting) interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13), two cytokines that play key roles in Type 2 inflammation in moderate-to-severe asthma.
