Filter by:This study aims to assess Sinonasal risk factors for occurrence of unilateral versus bilateral allergic fungal rhino sinusitis regarding:: 1. anatomical variations and correlate radiological finding with intraoperative finding. 2. other associated factors like demographic ,environmental, immunological and climatic risk factors .
This study aims to assess the diagnostic performance of CT and MRI in the diagnosis of complications of rhinosinusitis in comparison to clinical and operative findings.
The purpose of this study is to find a more effective treatment for allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS). Most people suffering from nasal polyps have elevated levels of white blood cells called eosinophils that are involved in inflammation of the air passages. Despite appropriate treatment with oral/topical corticosteroids, saline irrigations, and surgery, nasal polyps return frequently within months of surgery. Certain proteins made by the body called interleukins, appear to play a major role in the survival and activation of eosinophils. Antibodies are proteins naturally produced by your body that find foreign substances such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other substances that enter your body and make them inactive. Dupilumab is an antibody made in the laboratory that has been made to block specific interleukins from activating the eosinophils. This research is being done to find out if the medication dupilumab is effective and safe when used to treat patients with AFRS following recommended sinus surgery. Dupilumab is already approved for the treatment of atopic dermatitis, asthma, and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP); however, it is not approved to treat AFRS. Therefore its use in this study is considered experimental.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy of treatment with dupilumab to reduce sinus opacification in a population with allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of treatment with dupilumab to reduce sinus opacification in a population with allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) at Week 24 - To assess the efficacy of dupilumab to reduce the need for rescue treatments - To evaluate the efficacy of treatment with dupilumab in improving symptoms in AFRS - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab to reduce nasal polyp formation in participants with AFRS - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in improving overall symptom severity and quality of life in AFRS - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in improving sense of smell in participants with AFRS - To explore the effect of dupilumab as assessed by three-Dimensional CT volumetric measurement of the paranasal sinuses - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of dupilumab when administered to participants with AFRS - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of dupilumab in participants with AFRS - To characterize the effect of dupilumab on total IgE and specific IgE - To assess immunogenicity to dupilumab in participants with AFRS
