Current Perspectives on Biological Therapy for COPD.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic, complex, and heterogeneous condition with significant mortality, morbidity, and socioeconomic burden. Given the heterogeneity, the current management of COPD, which mainly relies on bronchodilators and corticosteroids, cannot consider all COPD populations. Moreover, the present treatment modalities are directed at minimizing symptoms and reducing the risk of a future attack, but they exhibit few meaningful anti-inflammatory activities in preventing and reducing disease progression.
