Filter by:The purpose of this randomized controlled double-blinded trial is to determine if the addition of an oral antifungal to typical post-operative medical therapy can prevent or reduce the incidence of recurrence of nasal polyps in fungal sensitive patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP).
Phase 2, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the clinical effects of oral administration of dexpramipexole for 6 months in subjects with chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps and eosinophilia.
The purpose of this study is to compare intranasal fluticasone spray with budesonide nasal saline rinses in both the upright and head forward positions in patients who have had functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) and measure differences in Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) scores and Lund- Kennedy scores on rigid nasal endoscopy at time points 1 week, 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months post-op.
A randomized, double-blind, ascending multiple dose study in healthy volunteers and subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
Oral corticosteroids are commonly utilized for the management of chronic rhinosinusitis with and without nasal polyps (CRSwNP and CRSsNP, respectively). Although strong evidence supports the benefit of routine and perioperative oral corticosteroids for CRSwNP, there is limited evidence to support their utility for CRSsNP. The investigators intend to perform a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled clinical trial to investigate the impact of steroids used within 2 weeks prior to surgery for CRSsNP. Patients with CRSsNP that present to the investigators office will be included if they have failed maximal medical management and have elected to undergo endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) after July 1, 2014. The investigators hypothesis is that oral corticosteroids given 2 weeks prior to surgery will improve subjective and objective outcome measures.
1. objectives. To compare the efficacy and the safety of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS; Nasonex 200μg, daily) alone versus a combination with montelukast (singulair 10mg, daily) in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with asthma after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for improvement the clinical control of CRS 2. the clinical hypotheses. The investigators hypothesize that postoperative combined montelukast and MFNS can better improve clinical control of CRS concomitant with asthma after FESS compared with MFNS alone. 3. study design This study is a 9-month randomized, open-label, controlled interventional study.
The purpose of this study is to see if a protein in blood, called periostin, can determine if patients have chronic sinusitis. This protein is in everyone's body, but the level of the protein may indicate certain conditions such as chronic sinusitis. The investigators are interested in testing levels of periostin to see if they are higher or lower than patients without chronic sinusitis, just as periostin is higher in patients with asthma. All patients enrolled in this study will have chronic sinusitis without asthma.
The purpose of this trial is to test the hypothesis that a treatment diet low in omega-6 fatty acids and high in omega-3 fatty acids can cause improvement in asthma symptoms, nasal symptoms, and pulmonary function in patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD).
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial enrolled subjects with eosinophilic CRSwNP. Subjects were randomized to receive either budesonide inhalation suspension or placebo for 14 days. Visual analogue scales (VAS）of nasal symptoms, endoscopic polyp scores and morning serum cortical levels were assessed pre- and post-treatment. Polyp samples were evaluated for inflammatory cytokines, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) by immunoassay; collagen by histochemistry; and frequencies of different inflammatory T cell infiltration by flow cytometry. this study is undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of short-term prescription of budesonide inhalation suspension via transnasal nebulization by clinical and immunologic assessments. As outcome parameters for remodeling, differences in the expression of collagen and albumin were investigated before and after budesonide treatment. Meanwhile, TGF-β, MMPs and TIMPs expression differences in nasal polyps were investigated to explore underlying mechanisms of tissue reconstitution.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab (SAR231893 / REGN668) in the treatment of bilateral Nasal Polyposis (NP) by assessment of the endoscopic nasal polyp score in comparison to placebo. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate effect of dupilumab with regards to: - symptoms of sinusitis - sinus Computed Tomography (CT) scan - nasal polyp score in the sub-group of patients with co-morbid asthma - Safety and tolerability
