But with high non-response rates and other unresolved issues, researchers are exploring how best to put these therapies to work, panelists said in a session at the Triological Society Combined Sections Meeting.
Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Might Predict Response to Dupilumab in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps
Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) might have a predictive value in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps in terms of treatment response to dupilumab, particularly PLR above 131.2.
