Condition(s) studied

Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP)

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Mepolizumab →Simple PolypectomyExtended Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

Mepolizumab: Subcutaneous injection of mepolizumab is administered every 4 weeks for a total treatment duration of 24 weeks.

Simple Polypectomy: Removal of nasal polyps in the middle meatus and superior turbinate region via the middle meatus and olfactory cleft, without opening the involved sinuses and without resection of diseased bone.

Extended Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: 1. Complete opening of all sinuses 2. Resection of diseased mucosa and hyperplastic bone 3. Ethmoid skeletonization with middle turbinectomy 4. Draf IIb/III frontal dissection when indicated by CT severity.

Study summary

This study compares two surgical approaches combined with anti-IL-5 therapy in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Patients will be randomly assigned to one of the three groups: (1) anti-IL-5 alone, (2) anti-IL-5 with simple polyp removal, or (3) anti-IL-5 with extended sinus surgery. The aim of this study is to see if a less invasive surgery (simple polyp removal) with anti-IL-5 works as well as more extensive surgery with anti-IL-5. Participants will be followed for 1 to 3 years.

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • The Change in SNOT-22 Score — Baseline,Month12
    The 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) is a questionnaire comprising 22 questions on health-related quality of life in rhinosinusitis. For each item, patients provide a subjective rating on a scale from 0 to 5, where 0 represents "No problem" and 5 represents "Problem as bad as it can be." The total score is the sum of all items and ranges from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 110. A higher total score indicates a worse outcome, reflecting a poorer quality of life due to rhinosinusitis.
  • Change in Nasal Congestion Score — Baseline, Month 12
    The Nasal Congestion Score (NCS) is a patient-reported outcome measure that assesses the subjective severity of nasal congestion. The score ranges from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 3, where 0 represents "No nasal congestion" and 3 represents "The most severe nasal congestion." A higher score indicates a worse outcome.
