Tozorakimab demonstrated statistically significant and highly clinically meaningful reduction in COPD exacerbations in OBERON and TITANIA Phase III trials

$AZNPress releaseSep 8, 2026, 7:50 AM ETRead the release

Tozorakimab, AstraZeneca's first-in-class anti-IL-33 monoclonal antibody, cut moderate and severe COPD exacerbations by 29-34% versus placebo in the replicate Phase III OBERON and TITANIA trials, making it the first biologic to demonstrate statistically significant efficacy in a broad COPD population. The trials randomized 2,306 patients to tozorakimab 300mg every four weeks or placebo over 52 weeks, and the benefit held across all blood eosinophil counts — a 43% exacerbation reduction at BEC ≥300, 34% at ≥150, and 23% even below 150.
