Filter by:Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or nasal polyposis is a frequent disease leading to a decreased quality of life. The validated course of treatment is firstly a medical one with saline irrigations and topical corticosteroids, followed by surgery (ethmoidectomy) if the medical treatment fails. In many cases, CRSwNP becomes a recurrent disease despite maximal treatment as previously indicated and it becomes refractory, with a chronically reduced quality of life. New treatments known as Biologics or Biotherapies in France such as Dupilumab are now available in situations of severe recurrent CRSwNP despite the appropriate treatment. The goal of this study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of Dupilumab and patient satisfaction, in a cohort of french patients, focusing on the change in quality of life that is expected from said treatment, over a period of one year. Patients will undergo 6 months of treatment with Dupilumab, the treatment will then be stopped for the next 6 months. The primary judgment criteria will be the SNOT 22 score, measured before treatment, after 6 months of treatment, and 6 months after stopping treatment, over a telephonic conversation.
This study will evaluate the effect of CBP-201, rademikibart, in adult patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP).
Impaired olfaction is one of the major complaints of patients with nasosinus polyposis, with nasal obstruction. In case of failure of medical treatment for patients with polyposis nasosinusal, they may use endoscopic surgery nasosinusal. Before surgery, 73% are hyposmic or anosmic, compared to 43% after surgery. Persistence of hyposmia or anosmia despite the removal of polyps can be explained by mechanisms inflammatory in the mucous membrane of the olfactory cleft. In addition, studies in mice have shown a degeneration of primary olfactory neurons at the level of the olfactory mucosa in connection with directly with TNF alpha, a pro-inflammatory molecule.
Prior studies have suggested that topical furosemide may reduce the recurrence of sinonasal polyposis following sinus surgery. This project aims to further investigate that claim through a blinded randomized controlled clinical trial following patients who undergo functional sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis with sinonasal polyposis by randomly assigning participants to receive topical furosemide versus placebo nasal spray for 2 months post operatively. Outcomes would be compared at 6 months through endoscopic grading scores using Lund Kennedy and Meltzer scores as well as Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) scores to measure the rate and degree of recurrence and impact on symptoms in the treatment group versus placebo.
The principal objective is to compare the use of mometasone nasal spray to budesonide irrigations in patients suffering from CRSwNP who have never been operated.
Verapamil is an L-type calcium channel blocker(CCB) which has been shown to reduce inflammation in a variety of tissues. Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by eosinophilic inflammation as well as P-gp overexpression. A previous trial of oral Verapamil showed preliminary efficacy for the treatment of CRSwNP. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intranasal Verapamil in CRSwNP. The study was initially approved as a Phase Ib/II, but only the Phase Ib portion was completed as part of this protocol.
The Department of Otolaryngology at Mount Sinai is looking for adults with sinus disease with polyps, otherwise called chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Patients may be eligible to enroll in a study offering a cutting-edge therapy to help reduce symptoms and avoid surgery. The treatment combines an antibiotic (doxycycline) with oral steroids. Oral steroids are the mainstay of medical management for patients with CRSwNP. However, recent studies have shown that doxycycline helps improve symptoms as well by reducing inflammation and killing common bacteria that can cause symptoms. This study is the first to evaluate this combination regimen.
Verapamil is an L-type calcium channel blocker(CCB) which has been shown to reduce inflammation in a variety of tissues. Verapamil has also been shown to improve eosinophilic inflammation in an animal model of asthma and also functions as a P-glycoprotein(P-gp) inhibitor. A major subtype of chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS) is characterized by eosinophilic inflammation as well as P-gp overexpression. The goal of this study is to therefore see whether Verapamil may be used to treat CRS.
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).
The purpose of this study is to determine the most effective route to administer steroids to patients with chronic sinusitis, specifically a type of chronic sinusitis not associated with nasal polyps (CRSsNP). The investigators would like to better understand whether orally administered steroids results in superior results when compared with nasally sprayed steroids. The investigators propose to test the hypothesis that for patients with radiographically proven CRSsNP, routine medical therapy consisting of a short course of systemic corticosteroids is superior to topical corticosteroids for relieving inflammation and the symptoms of CRS.
