A review of treatment with mepolizumab, an anti–IL-5 mAb, in hypereosinophilic syndromes and asthma  William W.

Fig 1 Schematic diagram of an eosinophil and its multifunctional effects. Eosinophils are bilobed granulocytes with eosinophilic-staining secondary granules, which contain 4 primary cationic proteins, designated eosinophil peroxidase (EPO), major basic protein (MBP), eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), and eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN). All 4 proteins are cytotoxic molecules; in addition, ECP and EDN are ribonucleases. Eosinophils respond to diverse stimuli, including nonspecific tissue injury, viral infections, allografts, allergens, and tumors. In addition to releasing their preformed cationic proteins, eosinophils can release a variety of cytokines, chemokines, lipid mediators, and neuromodulators. Eosinophils directly communicate with T cells and mast cells in a bidirectional manner. Eosinophils activate T cells by serving as antigen-presenting cells, and eosinophil-derived MBP is a mast cell secretagogue. Eosinophils can also regulate T-cell polarization through synthesis of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), an enzyme involved in oxidative metabolism of tryptophan, catalyzing the conversion of tryptophan to kynurenines (KYN), a regulator of TH1/TH2 balance.

Fig 3 Effects of mepolizumab 750 mg on corticosteroid requirements and blood eosinophil counts in patients with HESs in the pivotal double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Results are shown for the overall population and according to the daily prednisone dose at baseline (≤30 mg or >30 mg). A, Percentage of patients achieving a prednisone dose of ≤10 mg/d for ≥8 consecutive weeks (primary endpoint). B, Percentage of patients achieving a blood eosinophil count of <600 cells/μL for ≥8 consecutive weeks. Adapted from Rothenberg ME, Klion AD, Roufosse FE, Kahn JE, Weller PF, Simon HU, et al.
