More Information
Summary:Described herein are methods of managing eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in a patient, wherein the patient records the number of episodes of dysphagia on a patient report outcome (PRO) questionnaire prior to and during the course of treatment. While on treatment, the number of episodes of dysphagia are reduced, as reported on the PRO questionnaire. In some embodiments, the esophageal eosinophils are counted before or after treatment, or both. In some embodiments, esophageal eosinophils counts are not correlated with a reduction in the episodes of dysphagia.
