Anti-Eosinophil Therapy? The Montreal Protocol International Environmental Treaty Banned CFCs in consumer aerosols US has eliminated almost all manufacture and importation of CFCs since January 1, 1996 Essential use Exemption for: - MDIs for Asthma and COPD - Space Shuttle and Titan Rockets Single ingredient albuterol CFC MDIs banned, effective December 31, 28. 1

4 Should all patients with asthma be treated regularly with an inhaled corticosteroid? The IMPACT Study IMPACT Protocol Design N = 225 Budesonide Zafirlukast (therapy only as needed) Week Visit All patients were taught to initiate short courses of oral or inhaled corticosteroids by a Symptombased Action Plan* *Coté et al., AJRCCM 1997; 155: 159 Change in AM Peak Flow Change in AM PEF (%) Baseline to End Treatment 1 5 P=.94 Bud Zaf PRN Change in FEV 1 (% Change baseline to end treatment) Pre Albuterol FEV 1 Bud Zaf PRN * FEV 1 (%) Post Albuterol FEV 1 Bud Zaf PRN Boushey et al N Engl J Med 352: , 25 *P =.5 P =.292 Boushey et al N Engl J Med 352: , 25 4

IMPACT: Conclusion The criteria for mild persistent asthma may define a condition so mild that the decision as to whether to take regular daily therapy or to take only short courses of inhaled or oral corticosteroid therapy on an as needed basis may be left to the patient s own assessment of the importance of the subjective improvements experienced, and of the cost, inconvenience, and perceived risks of the treatment.
