Abstract: Described herein are methods of managing eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in a patient, wherein the patient records the number of episodes of dysphagia on a patient report outcome (PRO) questionnaire prior to and during the course of treatment. While on treatment, the number of episodes of dysphagia are reduced, as reported on the PRO questionnaire. In some embodiments, the esophageal eosinophils are counted before or after treatment, or both. In some embodiments, esophageal eosinophils counts are not correlated with a reduction in the episodes of dysphagia.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods of treating inflammation of the upper gastrointestinal tract, especially the esophagus, by administering an oral corticosteroid. In some cases, the methods include treating eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) by administering an oral corticosteroid in an induction phase and a maintenance phase to improve peak eosinophilic counts and symptoms. In embodiments, the methods include treating EoE by administering the oral corticosteroid at nighttime and/or while the patient is lying down.
