Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE): Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

Eosinophilic Esophagitis Overview

Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is an emerging chronic inflammatory disease of the esophagus characterized by upper gastrointestinal symptoms, including dysphagia and esophageal food impaction. The histopathological manifestations involve intraepithelial infiltration of eosinophils (=15 Eos/HPF) and remodeling of the esophageal epithelium, including Basal Zone Hyperplasia (BZH) and Dilated Intercellular Spaces (DIS), which can lead to strictures and narrow-caliber esophagus.

EoE is a complex disease characterized by heterogeneous clinical presentation (age of onset, symptomology, varying clinical manifestations and comorbidities, natural history, and responsiveness to therapy). Despite challenges in disease diagnosis and management, there is corroborative clinical and experimental evidence to suggest that EoE is driven by an underlying CD4+ T helper type 2 (Th2) allergic inflammatory response to dietary food allergens in the esophageal mucosa. EoE-derived signals (e.g., Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP) and interleukin (IL-13) are thought to induce Type-2 allergic cytokines, including IL-5 and IL-13, which stimulate the recruitment and activation of the allergic effector cells, eosinophils, and mast cells. Eosinophil and mast cell-derived mediators stimulate dysregulation of epithelial barrier regulatory and proliferative response genes within the esophageal epithelial compartment leading to esophageal epithelial remodeling and fibrosis. Compelling evidence supporting a role for allergic inflammatory cells (CD4+ Th2-type cells, eosinophils, and mast cells) and cytokines in EoE has led to using biologics that target these inflammatory cells and mediators as potential treatments for EoE.

Eosinophilic Esophagitis Diagnosis

EoE is characterized by clinical symptoms of esophageal dysfunction and esophageal eosinophilia, defined by =15 Eosinophils per High-powered Field (Eos/HPF) on biopsy. Before solidifying a diagnosis of EoE, clinicians should consider other etiologies of esophageal eosinophilia.

Endoscopy, Barium Esophagram, Reflux testing, Impedence planimetry and others methods are used for the diagnosis of EoE.

Eosinophilic Esophagitis Treatment

The treatment of EoE seeks to relieve symptoms, improve histopathology, reverse existing disease complications, and prevent future disease consequences. The primary approach involves treatment with Proton pump inhibitors, swallowed topical steroids, and diet therapy. Medical and diet therapies that significantly reduce esophageal inflammation may not effectively reverse existing esophageal strictures. In contrast, esophageal dilation can effectively manage esophageal strictures, thereby alleviating dysphagia in the absence of improvement in esophageal inflammation. Endoscopic features, as delineated by the EREFS system, identify remodeling aspects of the disease, including esophageal rings and strictures that are associated with symptom outcomes of dysphagia and food impaction risk and are not verifiable on mucosal biopsies.

Eosinophilic Esophagitis Epidemiology

The Eosinophilic Esophagitis epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by the Total Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Eosinophilic Esophagitis, Gender-specific Cases of Eosinophilic Esophagitis, Age-specific Cases of Eosinophilic Esophagitis, Treated Cases of Eosinophilic Esophagitis in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.

• In the 7MM, the US accounted for the highest diagnosed prevalent cases of eosinophilic esophagitis in 2023, with around 445,000 cases; these numbers are expected to increase during the forecast period.
• Eosinophilic Esophagitis predominantly affected males, with approximately 290,000 males diagnosed compared to 156,000 females in 2023 in the US.
• In the 7MM, individuals over the age of 18 were the most affected by Eosinophilic Esophagitis, with approximately 156,000 cases reported in 2023.

Emerging Drugs

Cendakimab (CC-93538/RPC4046): Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS)

Cendakimab/RPC4046/CC-93538 is a recombinant humanized, high affinity, selective, anti-IL-13 mAb. RPC4046 binds an IL-13 epitope that prevents its binding to both IL-13R (alpha) 1 and IL-13R (alpha) 2, providing potential efficacy and/or safety advantages. The drug has been granted ODD for the treatment of EoE by the US FDA. In the Phase II study, RPC4046 demonstrated positive results. Currently, the company is conducting two Phase III clinical studies to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CC-93538 in adult and adolescent participants with EoE.

TEZSPIRE (Tezepelumab) : AstraZeneca/Amgen

TEZSPIRE (tezepelumab) is being developed by AstraZeneca in collaboration with Amgen as a first-in-class human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the action of TSLP. This key epithelial cytokine sits at the top of multiple inflammatory cascades. It is critical in the initiation and persistence of allergic, eosinophilic, and other types of airway inflammation associated with severe asthma, including airway hyperresponsiveness. TEZSPIRE acts at the top of the inflammation cascade and has the potential to help address a broad population of severe asthma patients irrespective of biomarker levels.

TEZSPIRE is approved in the US, EU, Japan, and other countries for the treatment of severe asthma. TEZSPIRE is also in development for other potential indications, including Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, chronic spontaneous urticaria, and EoE. In October 2021, tezepelumab was granted an Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by the FDA for the treatment of EoE.

Eosinophilic Esophagitis Market Outlook

The market for Eosinophilic Esophagitis is driven by significant unmet needs, particularly in the development of novel treatments and the establishment of comprehensive guidelines for adolescents and adults. Current treatments, like proton pump inhibitors and corticosteroids therapy, manage symptoms but come with serious side effects due to high steroid dosages. Although in recent years therapies like DUPIXENT, EOHILIA and JOrveza got approved in 7MM countries but still there is huge scope for emerging. There are some promising therapies in the pipeline, including Cendakimab, Tezepelumab, APT-101, Etrasimod and others which are advancing through clinical trials. These emerging therapies are expected to enter the market by 2025, offering potentially disease-modifying options that could significantly improve patient outcomes and drive market growth.
