Clinical Study
Tezepelumab: A Study Drug for Patients with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)
Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is a disease that may cause vomiting and heartburn and make swallowing difficult. Tezepelumab is a study drug for patients with EoE. Research is needed to learn if Tezepelumab is safe and effective at helping people with EoE. We also hope to better understand EoE and health problems related to the disease. The information we gain may aid future patients.
