ACAAI 2026 Preview: Late-Breakers to Watch Out For

Published on: 

Clinicians at ACAAI 2026 will see late-breaking HAE, anaphylaxis, urticaria, and food allergy data, plus exclusive expert interviews.

The American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (ACAAI) 2026 Annual Scientific Meeting will convene in Phoenix, Arizona, from Thursday, November 12, to Monday, November 16, bringing together allergy and immunology clinicians at the Phoenix Convention Center.¹ Registrants will have on-demand access to > 50 hours of recorded sessions.¹

This year’s meeting theme is “Building Bridges for the Future.”¹ Late-breaking science is concentrated on Saturday, November 14, with abstracts spanning hereditary angioedema (HAE), anaphylaxis, urticaria, systemic mastocytosis, food allergy, and ocular allergy.

The HCPLive editorial team will be on-site throughout the meeting, providing written coverage of practice-changing data and video interviews with leading allergy and immunology experts, including Michael S. Blaiss, MD (Augusta University); William R. Lumry, MD (UT Southwestern Medical School); Thanai Pongdee, MD (Mayo Clinic); Giselle S. Mosnaim, MD (University of Chicago); and Aleena Banerji, MD (Mass General Brigham). You can follow HCPLive’s comprehensive ACAAI 2026 coverage here. Check out what to expect from this year’s meeting below.

5. Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Top of Tongue Placement of Dibutepinephrine Sublingual Film
Presenter: Matthew Greenhawt, MD, MBA, MSc
Time: 5:23 PM – 5:33 PM MST

This companion analysis evaluates the PK/PD profile of dibutepinephrine sublingual film when the film is placed on top of the tongue instead of beneath it.
