Official title: Impact of Mepolizumab Maintenance Therapy on Inhaled Corticosteroids Use
Trial description: Asthma is a common chronic respiratory disorder that affects millions of children and adults. Asthma is characterized by periodic exacerbations by chronically hyperactive and inflamed airways that can be mild, moderate, or severe. This is a retrospective study of participants receiving mepolizumab between 01 November 2015 and 31 March 2018 and will describe the number of participants with high dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) group at initiation of Nucala® and follow their use of ICS dose over the course of a year and describe outcomes of exacerbation rate, oral corticosteroids (OCS) and Short-acting Beta Agonists (SABA). The data will be collected using MarketScan® Commercial and Medicare Supplemental Database. MarketScan is a registered trademark of Thomson Reuters (Healthcare) Inc. Nucala is a registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline group of companies.

- Participants with mepolizumab administration between 01 November 2015 and 31 March 2018. Date of the first administration during the participant identification period will be considered the index date.
- Participants with at least 12 months of continuous enrollment with medical and pharmacy benefits before the index date (Baseline period).
- Participants with evidence of mepolizumab use during the 12-month Baseline period.
- Participants with evidence of omalizumab, reslizumab, benralizumab, or dupilumab use (as assessed by Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System [HCPCS] or National Drug Code [NDC]) during the 12-month Baseline period.
