Episode #73: Insights into the Rising Prevalence of Eosinophilic Esophagitis | Lisa Mathew & Vijay Yajnik | Takeda

Gastro Broadcast

Dr. Lisa Mathew interviews Dr. Vijay Yajnik, vice president and head of U.S. Medical, Gastroenterology, at Takeda about how the prevalence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is increasing, and evidence is growing that EoE is not a rare disease, but an underdiagnosed one. Approximately one in 2000 people in the U.S. live with EoE, and the incidence and prevalence of eosinophilic esophagitis have steadily increased over time. Join Dr. Mathew and Dr. Yajnik as they explore progress that has been made in diagnosing and treating EoE, and some recent studies that could influence patient care.
