NCT07528820
This study aims to examine three key aspects of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP): inflammation, tissue structure (histopathology), and remodeling.
NCT07524127
This monocentric, interventional study (category RIPH2) aims to characterize the rheological properties of sinonasal secretions in patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP). The primary objective is to determine differences in mucus viscosity between CRSwNP patients and a control group. By establishing a correlation between local rheology and systemic Type 2 inflammation biomarkers, the study seeks to develop a non-invasive, rapid "point-of-care" tool to refine patient phenotyping and improve the personalization of biological treatments.
NCT07125586
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a common condition causing nasal congestion, discharge, and reduced sense of smell, seriously affecting patients' quality of life. A subtype called eosinophilic CRSwNP (eCRSwNP) is difficult to treat and often recurs after surgery. Currently, diagnosing this subtype requires tissue samples after surgery, which delays treatment decisions and may lead to unnecessary surgeries. Our research team has developed a new, non-invasive diagnostic system using advanced spectral technology to detect a natural fluorescence marker inside eosinophils (a type of immune cell) in nasal polyps. This system can quickly identify eCRSwNP before surgery by shining a safe light on the nasal tissue and analyzing the fluorescence signals. This study aims to evaluate how accurate and safe this real-time diagnostic system is in clinical practice. If successful, it will help doctors choose better personalized treatments, reduce unnecessary surgeries, lower recurrence rates, and ultimately improve patients' lives.
NCT06892704
The goal of this observational study is to learn what can predict the return of the sense of smell in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps being treated with dupilumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does obstruction of the olfactory cleft predict return of the sense of smell? 2. Do electrophysiological signals generated by breathing and sniffing behavior predict return of the sense of smell? Participants starting dupilumab will undergo assessment for their degree of olfactory cleft obstruction, and an electrophysiologic assessment of their olfactory cleft and be followed over 6 months of treatment with dupilumab.
NCT06801353
Recently, several biologic therapies have become available for treating chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, not every patient responds to these treatments. This clinical trial aims to develop a non-invasive predictive model to help determine how effective IL-4Rα targeted monoclonal antibody therapy will be for individuals with CRSwNP.
NCT02912468
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab 300 milligram (mg) every 2 weeks (q2w) compared to placebo on a background of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) in reducing nasal congestion/obstruction (NC) severity and endoscopic nasal polyp score (NPS) in participants with bilateral nasal polyposis (NP). In addition for Japan participants, reduction in computed tomography (CT) scan opacification of the sinuses was a coprimary objective. Secondary Objectives: * To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in improving total symptoms score (TSS). * To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in improving sense of smell. * To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in reducing CT scan opacification of the sinuses (primary objective for Japan). * To evaluate ability of dupilumab in reducing proportion of participants requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroids or NP surgery. * To evaluate the effect of dupilumab on participant reported outcomes and health related quality of life outcome by sinonasal outcome test-22 (SNOT-22). * To evaluate the effect of dupilumab in the subgroups of participants with prior surgery and co-morbid asthma (including non-steroid antiinflammatory drug \[NSAID\] exacerbated respiratory disease \[ERD\]). * To evaluate residual effect in follow up. * To evaluate the safety of dupilumab in participants with bilateral NP. * To evaluate functional dupilumab concentrations (systemic exposure) and incidence of treatment-emergent anti-drug antibodies.
NCT03975842
The relationship between otitis media with effusion (OME) and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) remains unclear. A cross-sectional study of 80 consecutively presenting patients who were diagnosed with CRSwNP was conducted. The aim was to ascertain the prevalence of OME in CRSwNP patients, to determine whether the severity of CRSwNP affected OME, and to identify risk factors for OME in CRSwNP patients.
