Respiratory diseases, as a major challenge in the field of global public health, have always been the focus of the global medical community and the public. Among them, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as the two main types, not only affect billions of patients, but also bring a huge medical burden. However, with the deepening of medical research and the progress of science and technology, this field is ushering in unprecedented development opportunities.   Traditional respiratory disease treatment methods, such as bronchodilation and anti-inflammatory treatment, can significantly alleviate the symptoms of patients in the short term, but often find it difficult to fundamentally solve the problem of chronic inflammation. Fortunately, with the in-depth study of the pathogenesis of the disease, especially the deepening understanding of the Th2 cell-mediated airway inflammation mechanism, we are now able to treat the root cause of the disease more accurately. For example, a number of targeted biological agents targeting inflammatory mediators such as IL-5 and IL-4/13 have been successively approved for marketing, providing new hope for patients with refractory asthma. These new drugs not only can more effectively control inflammation, but also reduce the side effects of traditional drugs, and improve the quality of life of patients.   In the field of COPD treatment, there are also exciting developments. With the deeper understanding of the pathogenesis of COPD, new drug development has also made significant breakthroughs. For example, Brensocatib, a new drug from Insmed, has achieved success in phase 3 clinical trials. These new drugs not only can alleviate the symptoms of COPD patients, but also can improve lung function and quality of life. This breakthrough has undoubtedly brought new treatment options for COPD patients and new growth points for the respiratory disease market.   However, with the expiration of patents, some well-established star drugs are facing fierce competition from generic drugs. Taking AstraZeneca's budesonide/formoterol and GlaxoSmithKline's salmeterol/fluticasone combination products as examples, these drugs have been the leaders in the respiratory disease market in recent years. However, with the expiration of patents, the influx of generic drugs has made the market competition increasingly fierce, and the sales of these well-established drugs have also shown a downward trend. This also means that the respiratory disease field will usher in a new round of reshuffle in the future.   For pharmaceutical companies, this is undoubtedly a challenge. However, challenges and opportunities coexist. With the continuous deepening of disease awareness and the continuous enrichment of treatment methods, the respiratory disease market is showing vigorous vitality. In order to establish a foothold in this market, pharmaceutical companies need to continuously introduce innovative products and explore new treatment ideas. At the same time, they also need to respond reasonably to market competition after the expiration of patents, and maintain competitive advantages through improving product quality and reducing production costs.   In addition, with the application of technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence, the treatment of respiratory diseases will also become more accurate and efficient. By analyzing patient data, doctors can more accurately determine the type and severity of the disease, and develop personalized treatment plans for patients. This will greatly improve the treatment effect, reduce medical costs, and bring better treatment experience for patients.   In summary, the field of respiratory diseases is ushering in unprecedented development opportunities. Both internal and external companies in the industry should closely monitor market dynamics and technological progress, seize opportunities, and jointly promote the sustainable development of this field. In the future, we have reason to believe that the treatment of respiratory diseases will become more accurate, efficient and humanized.
