View clinical trials related to Chronic Rhinosinusitis.
Filter by:Despite advances in medical treatments and surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), there remains a large number of patients who continue to suffer from chronic sinusitis despite standard therapies. This research project has the goal of evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a potentially novel therapy for patients with CRS refractory to medical and surgical therapies, consisting of the introduction of a live probiotic bacteria (L lactis W136) directly into the nasal and sinus cavities via irrigation. In total, 24 patients suffering from refractory CRS will be recruited from ongoing clinical activities by the research team of Martin Desrosiers at the CHUM hospital. Study duration is six weeks, and will be performed in three phases, with six visits planned in total. 1. Two-week observation period where only saline irrigation is administered. 2. Treatment period of 14 days (D0 to D14) during which L lactis W136 will be administered twice-daily. 3. Post treatment observation period of two weeks (D14 to D28) during which the patient will cease probiotic but will continue to irrigate his nose with only saline. Assessment will use symptom questionnaires, quality of life questionnaires and endoscopic examination of the sinus cavities. Sinus culture will be performed at each visit to assess development of unusual infections. Exploratory assessments of gene expression and microbiome profiling will be performed to explore underlying mechanisms.
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intranasal administration of 186 and 372 μg twice daily (BID) of OPN-375 in subjects with chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) without nasal polyps
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intranasal administration of 186 and 372 μg twice daily (BID) of OPN-375 in subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis (CS) with or without nasal polyps.
A study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of etokimab in adults with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
This is a research study to find out if an off-label use of carboxymethylcellulose foam (CMC), an absorbable nasal packing, combined with triamcinolone acetonide, a steroid, is more comfortable postoperatively for participants and is as effective in decreasing scarring, swelling and crusting after surgery than an FDA approved steroid eluting implant. Anticipated sample size will be 30. Study is an intrapatient control design. Subjects will be randomly assigned to receive CMC foam with triamcinolone in one nare and the steroid-eluting implant in the other. Participants will fill out preoperative and follow-up visit surveys at 7, 14, 30 and 90 days. Subjects at each visit will also have pictures taken of the nasal cavities to be scored for later analysis. Paired t-tests will be performed for analysis. Our primary objective is to demonstrate that triamcinolone-impregnated carboxymethylcellulose foam is noninferior to steroid-eluting implants in improving postoperative ethmoid inflammation, middle turbinate position, preventing intranasal synechiae and reducing polypoid change with objective measurement scales Our secondary objects include assessing the quality-of-life and nasal obstruction symptoms before and after functional endoscopic sinus surgery with validated SNOT-22 and NOSE questionnaires and to assess the cost-effectiveness of triamcinolone-impregnated carboxymethylcellulose foam versus steroid-eluting implant in management of CRSwNP in the early postoperative period. The endpoints are the POSE scores, the SNOT-22 and NOSE scores at days 7, 14, 30 and 90.
The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and durability of response of omalizumab in an open-label setting in adult participants with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps who completed the double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase III studies GA39688 (NCT03280550) or GA39855 (NCT03280537). Participants will be eligible for enrollment in the study at, or within 28 days after, the Week 24 visit of Studies GA39688/GA39855. After enrollment into this open-label extension (OLE) study, participants will receive 28 weeks of dosing of omalizumab before entering a 24-week off-treatment observation phase of the study. Baseline in this OLE study is defined as the last pre-treatment measurement prior to randomization in Studies GA39688/GA39855 (i.e., baseline of Studies GA39688/GA39855). The data that will be reported from baseline to Week 24 inclusive will come from Studies GA39688/GA39855.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of omalizumab compared with placebo in adult participants with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) who have had an inadequate response to standard-of-care treatments. Study GA39855 (POLYP 2; NCT03280537) was another Phase III study by the Sponsor with identical objectives and design and was run in parallel with this study.

The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a randomized controlled trial within a subgroup of difficult-to-treat patients with CRS, evaluating the use of topical xylitol treatment concurrently with topical steroid/antibiotics combination in the effort to disrupt biofilms and improve disease control. The effectiveness of topical surfactants is a research gap in treating CRS but has promising correlates in other medical fields. Specifically, the investigators will be studying the effect of topical xylitol therapy on biofilm production with the use of PCR bacterial sequencing before and after medical intervention.
Prospective, randomized, cross-over, multicenter, trial comparing the efficacy and tolerability of nasal irrigation with Respimer® mineral salts solution versus saline solution both administered with Respimer® Netiflow® medical device among patients aged ≥ 11 years and older with cystic fibrosis and suffering from chronic rhinosinusitis.
