Filter by:Primary objective of the study is to evaluate if the novel virtual polyp sizing tool accuracy in determining the size class of polyps among diminutive (0-5 mm), small (6-9 mm) and large (10 mm and above).
The goal of this observational study is to learn about clinical and functional outcomes in patients with Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and comorbid Severe Eosinophilic Asthma and patients with Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps only treated with mepolizumab compared to healthy controls. Participants will be asked to give nasal, blood and sputum samples before mepolizumab administration (T0) and at 3 (T3), 6 (T6) and 12 (T12) months after mepolizumab initiation The main aims are to identify airways microbiota modifications and differential gene expression after mepolizumab initiation. Researchers will compare: - Patients with Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and comorbid Severe Eosinophilic Asthma - Patients with Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps only - Healthy subjects The research will address the following questions: 1. What are the prospective clinical and functional outcomes of mepolizumab treatment 2. What is the impact of mepolizumab therapy on the airways microbiota and how this may relate to a potentially reduced need for steroids 3. What are the host differential gene expression patterns and the immune/inflammatory (cytokines/chemokines) profile alterations in airways microenvironment and in systemic circulation in response to therapy 4. What are the associations between host and microbiome variables for building up diagnostic and predictive biomarker classifiers of responsive disease endotypes
Colonoscopic removal of adenomatous polyps reduce both the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer (CRC). The common clinical management of colorectal polyp detected during colonoscopy is to remove them and send for histopathology to determine the subsequent surveillance interval. More than 80% of polyps detected during screening or surveillance colonoscopy are diminutive (≤5mm). As the chance of diminutive polyps to harbor cancer or advanced neoplasia is low, leave-in-situ and resect-and-discard strategies using optical diagnosis are recommended for non-neoplastic polyps by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and the European Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) so as to reduce the financial burden of polypectomy and histopathology. The societies proposed leave-in-situ strategy if optical diagnosis can achieve a negative predictive value (NPV) of >90% for rectosigmoid polyp and resect-and-discard if an agreement of more than 90% concordance with histopathology-based post-polypectomy surveillance interval can be achieved. However, optical diagnosis is operator dependent and most endoscopists are reluctant to adopt this strategy in routine practice because of the need of strict training and auditing and fear of incorrect diagnosis. In the past decade, with the exponential increase in computational power, reduced cost of data storage, improved algorithmic sophistication, and increased availability of electronic health data, artificial intelligence (AI) assisted technologies were widely adopted in various healthcare settings to improve clinical outcomes, especially the quality of colonoscopy in the area of gastroenterology. Real time use of computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) for adenoma using AI systems were developed and proven to be useful to help endoscopists to distinguish neoplastic polyps from non-adenomatous polyps. However, these studies only examined diminutive polyp but not polyp of larger size (>5mm). They were conducted with small sample size of less than few hundred subjects and the study settings were open-label and non-randomized. The investigators aim to conduct a large scale randomized controlled trial to evaluate the performance of colorectal polyp characterization of all size polyps by real-time CADx using AI system against conventional colonoscopy with optical diagnosis.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of TQC2731 injection in the treatment of Chronic Sinusitis with Nasal Polyps.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of brensocatib at 10 and 40 milligrams (mg) once daily (QD) compared with placebo in improving clinical symptoms of CRSsNP.
Colonoscopy is the gold standard modality for the detection of colonic polyp. However, miss polyp occurs especially in right sided colon. Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the modality to improve polyp detection but the benefit of AI in operators with different endoscopic experience is still limited. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of AI in the detection of right sided colonic polyp in operators with different endoscopic experience by using double insertion of right side colon, back-to-back basis.
The study involves the planned use of a new microwave-based device during colonoscopy procedures in 50 patients to assess the performance and safety of its use for detection of colorectal polyps and lack of normal clinical practice modification. The device is a final design version, which has been previously tested in several preclinical studies (including phantom studies, an ex vivo study with human tissues, and an in vivo study with porcine model) and in a pilot study in humans (NCT05477836)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the primary endoscopic frontal sinus surgery on the clinical outcome in patients having moderate to severe eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps with primary outcome measures in form of recurrence of polyp using endoscopic polyp score and Secondary outcome measures include Lund MacKay score, SNOT-22 and need for corticosteroid to control polyp postoperatively.
Cold polypectomy has the advantages of simple operation, less time-consuming and fewer complications. Guidelines have recommended cold snare polypectomy (CSP) to resect small polyps sized <9 mm. CSP was designed to improve the complete resection rate and reduce adverse events. Investigators hypothesize that CSP is better than conventional hot snare endoscopic mucosal resection (HS-EMR) in the presence of injured submucosal arteries detected in the submucosal layer for 10-19 mm nonpedunculated colorectal polyps, resulting in lower delayed bleeding after CSP of 10-19 mm nonpedunculated colorectal polyps.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, and safety of SHR-1905 injection in subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), as well as to explore the reasonable dosage of SHR-1905 injection for CRSwNP.
