Challenges and Opportunities in Achieving Asthma Remission.

: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder in millions of individuals across the globe with high morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. Despite advances in asthma treatment, long-term remission is a challenging target to achieve. This review will address the path to remission in asthma with focus on the role of biologic agents in severe asthma management and on the question as to whether long-term disease control and remission are a reality. : A systematic literature review from 1971 to 2025 was conducted through databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science. Clinical trials, meta-analyses, and real-world evidence concerning biologic therapies, such as monoclonal antibodies targeting interleukin -5 (IL-5), IL-4/IL-13, immunoglobulin E, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin, were considered. Symptom control, exacerbation frequency, lung function, and oral corticosteroid (OCS) use were some of the outcomes considered. : Biologic treatments have yielded significant gains in asthma control and reduction of exacerbation. Complete remission-long-term resolution of symptoms, inflammation, and drug dependence-is still difficult to achieve. Early intervention with biologics may prevent irreversible airway remodeling, but long-term remission is not in sight. These drugs reduce OCS dependency, but sustainability of remission remains to be investigated. : Biologic therapies have advanced asthma treatment, particularly in severe cases, by improving symptoms and reducing exacerbations. However, complete remission remains a distant goal. The development of standardized remission criteria, better patient stratification, and long-term clinical studies are necessary to help achieve sustained asthma control and remission.
