Plain-language summary
With a prevalence of 2-4% in western countries, Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) is of major concern regarding its substantial impact on the social and physical quality of life. So far, endoscopic sinus surgery remains the treatment of choice when the first line of medical treatment with corticosteroid has failed.
During the last 15 years, several studies have shown that CRSwNP is associated with a T helper 2 (T2) immune response leading to B cell release of IgE, mucosal recruitment of eosinophils from bone marrow via Interleukin (IL)-5, IL-4 and IL-13 mediated chemoattractant production.
New biologic agents capable of blocking T2 cytokines have been developed in the field of eosinophil-associated diseases, shifting the paradigm of treatment for patients with CRSwNP. In the near future, endotype profiling with accurate biomarkers will be mandatory to tailor the treatment of nasal polyposis with specific biologic therapies.
Herein the investigators propose a prospective study monitoring medical records of CRSwNP patients who undergo biologic treatments. The objectives are to assess treatment efficacy on quality of life, to report clinical and biological criteria for prescription and to measure tolerance and compliance.Patient-reported outcomes will be addressed according to their initial clinical profile (allergy, asthma, NSAID, gastroesophageal reflux disease, obstructive apnea, otologic disorder, smoke habit).

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:

Exclusion Criteria:
* Oral corticotherapy in the previous month;
* Biologic treatment with anti-IgE (omalizumab), anti-IL-5/IL-5R (mepolizumab, benralizumab) or anti-IL-4/IL-13R (dupilumab) or any other biotherapy for inflammatory diseases in the previous 6 months of initiation of treatment apart from ongoing biotherapies for severe asthma or CRSwNP;
* Hypersensitivity to humanized antibodies ;
* Documented SARS-Cov2 infection in the last 3 months with persistent olfactory disorders related to COVID;
* Pregnant or breast-feeding women;
* Patient without social coverage.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
