RESULTS WITH NUCALA

DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE WITH NUCALA

NUCALA is a different kind of treatment. It’s not an inhaler or a steroid—it’s a biologic. NUCALA is a once-monthly* injection for COPD that, when added to your current treatment, can help reduce flare-ups.

  • Results may vary.
  • * Every 4 weeks.

See what can happen when adding NUCALA to your current COPD treatment:

NUCALA has been shown to be effective in a range of patients from moderate to very severe COPD

NUCALA was studied in patients with moderate to very severe airflow obstruction.

In 2 studies, NUCALA reduced overall moderate to severe flare-ups by 21% and 18%

NUCALA patients had 0.80 and 1.40 flare-ups/year vs 1.01 and 1.71 flare-ups/year in patients taking placebo.

35% fewer flare-ups related to hospitalizations and/or ED visits

NUCALA patients had 0.13 flare-ups/year vs 0.20 flare-ups/year in patients taking placebo. Based on limits of the study, results are descriptive, and your experience may differ.

NUCALA has been well studied

More than 2000 patients were enrolled across 3 COPD trials, including a 2-year study (1043 patients received NUCALA and 1046 patients received placebo).

  • Results may vary.
