Journal Article
Morice, A. H., Millqvist, E., Bieksiene, K., Birring, S. S., Dicpinigaitis, P., Ribas, C. D., …Zacharasiewicz, A. (2021). European respiratory society guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic cough in adults and children. Pulmonologiya, 31(4), 418-438. https://doi.org/10.18093/0869-0189-2021-31-4-418-438

These guidelines incorporate the recent advances in chronic cough pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment. The concept of cough hypersensitivity has allowed an umbrella term that explains the exquisite sensitivity of patients to external stimuli suc...

Chronic cough: new insights and future prospects (2021)
Journal Article
Morice, A., Dicpinigaitis, P., McGarvey, L., & Birring, S. S. (2021). Chronic cough: new insights and future prospects. European Respiratory Review, 30(162), Article 210127. https://doi.org/10.1183/16000617.0127-2021

Chronic cough is defined in adults as a cough that lasts for ≥8 weeks. When it proves intractable to standard-of-care treatment, it can be referred to as refractory chronic cough (RCC). Chronic cough is now understood to be a condition of neural dysr... Read More about Chronic cough: new insights and future prospects.

Adaptive study design to assess effect of TRPV4 inhibition in patients with chronic cough (2021)
Journal Article
Ludbrook, V. J., Hanrott, K. E., Kreindler, J. L., Marks-Konczalik, J. E., Bird, N. P., Hewens, D. A., …Smith, J. (2021). Adaptive study design to assess effect of TRPV4 inhibition in patients with chronic cough. ERJ Open Research, 7(3), Article 00269-2021. https://doi.org/10.1183/23120541.00269-2021

Objective Airway sensory nerves involved in the cough reflex are activated by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) agonism of P2X purinoceptor 3 (P2X3) receptors. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channel activation causes ATP release from air...

The Cough Reflex: The Janus of Respiratory Medicine (2021)
Journal Article
Sykes, D. L., & Morice, A. H. (2021). The Cough Reflex: The Janus of Respiratory Medicine. Frontiers in Physiology, 12, Article 684080. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2021.684080

In clinical practice, we commonly face adversity when encountering dysfunction of the cough reflex. Similar to ancient Roman deity Janus, it often presents with one of two opposing “faces”. Continual aberrant activation of the cough reflex, also know... Read More about The Cough Reflex: The Janus of Respiratory Medicine.

Eliapixant (BAY 1817080), a P2X3 receptor antagonist, in refractory chronic cough: A randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover phase 2a study (2021)
Journal Article
Morice, A., Smith, J. A., McGarvey, L., Birring, S. S., Parker, S. M., Turner, A., …Friedrich, C. (2021). Eliapixant (BAY 1817080), a P2X3 receptor antagonist, in refractory chronic cough: A randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover phase 2a study. European respiratory journal, 58(5), Article 2004240. https://doi.org/10.1183/13993003.04240-2020

Background. ATP acting via P2X3 receptors is an important mediator of refractory chronic cough (RCC). This phase 2a double-blinded crossover study assessed the safety, tolerability and efficacy of eliapixant (BAY 1817080), a selective P2X3 receptor a...
