Abstract
Daily administration of a high dose of FP induces histologic remission in 65%-77% of patients with EoE after 3 months. A 50% dose reduction remained effective in 73%-93% of patients who initially responded to FP. Nonresponders had evidence of steroid resistance; histologic and molecular markers may predict resistance. Clinicaltrials.gov number: NCT00426283.
