A Phase 4 interventional study of Biologic Agents in Chronic Sinusitis and Nasal Polyps, sponsored by Medical University of South Carolina. Recruiting at 5 sites in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-11-10.

The prevalence of Chronic Sinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) in the United States is estimated at roughly 4%, which equates to over 13 million Americans. Until recently, the only medical treatment options available for patients with CRSwNP were corticosteroids, with surgery reserved for medical failure. The development of biologic medications over the last 5 years has revolutionized the treatment of CRSwNP. Three biologic medications have been FDA approved and available for the treatment of CRSwNP: dupilumab, omalizumab, and mepolizumab. However, data from the clinical trials for these drugs do not show universal improvement across all patients with CRSwNP. In fact, there is a wide range of outcomes for patients in these trials. The result is that clinicians have no way of knowing which specific biologic would be the best option for any given patient, nor do they know whether biomarkers can be used to predict response to biologics. It is hoped that findings from this study will inform whether any one biologic has superior outcomes to another and whether clinicians can identify patients at baseline who are most likely to improve on biologic therapy.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Evidence by way of phase III clinical trials has shown efficacy of dupilumab, omalizumab, and mepolizumab to placebo, leading to regulatory approval and widespread clinical use. However, data from these clinical trials does not show universal improvement and ideal control of disease across all patients with Chronic Sinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP). Successful completion of this trial will help answer some of the most pressing clinical questions related to biologics and CRSwNP. Specifically, findings will inform whether any one biologic has superior outcomes to another and whether clinicians can identify patients at baseline who are most likely to improve on biologic therapy.
This study also gives Dupilumab, Omalizumab. No intervention listed here names it: that was found by reading the record.
Disease-Specific Quality of Life
The 22-item SinoNasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22; ©2006, Washington University, St. Louis, MO) will serve as the primary outcome of interest for all study aims/objectives. The SNOT-22 survey is a CRS-specific QOL instrument containing 22 questions (total summarized score range: 0-110) with high internal consistency and high test-retest reliability. The SNOT-22 utilizes Likert scales numbering from 0 ("No problem") to 5 "Problem as bad as it can be"). The SNOT-22 has been shown to discriminate between subjects with CRS and healthy controls, as well as identify significant differences after both medical and surgical treatments.
