Highlights
- •To reduce the proportion of uncontrolled/unresponsive asthma patients, different strategies need to be identified to phenotype patients into subgroups with a more personalized approach to disease management.
- •To date, clinical trials investigating novel biologics and cluster analysis in asthma still heavily rely on clinically-defined phenotypes.
- •Bioprofiling patients with asthma with enhanced, machine learning, unbiased cluster analysis techniques could provide more targetable asthma phenotype groups for modern biologics.
