Understanding Nasal Polyp Inflammation and Tissue Changes
Treatments studied
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study examines tissue samples and inflammation patterns from people with chronic nasal polyps to better understand the condition. Researchers will take small biopsies to identify what drives nasal polyp growth, which may help develop better treatments in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 19 years old
- Have chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (confirmed by doctor exam, imaging, or camera scope) with polyps on both sides
- Not planning to have sinus surgery in the next 7 months
- Not currently taking allergy medications, steroids, or immune-suppressing drugs
- Not have an active or recent serious infection, cancer history, or certain blood disorders
- Not be a heavy smoker (more than 15 pack-years of smoking history)

This study compares two different surgical techniques for treating severe sinusitis with nasal polyps. It's for people who have tried other treatments but still have symptoms.
This study examines the type of inflammation in nasal polyps by collecting small tissue samples during surgery. It may help doctors better understand why some people develop nasal polyps and how to treat them more effectively.
This study looks at the connection between your nasal microbiome (the tiny living things in your nose) and severe nasal polyps caused by type 2 inflammation. It may help find new ways to treat chronic sinusitis with polyps.
This study looks at different “immune inflammation patterns” in people with asthma and/or nasal polyps. It may help researchers better tailor future treatments by figuring out which patterns go with which symptoms.
This trial tests a more thorough sinus surgery combined with removing lymphoid tissue in the throat to see if it helps people with nasal polyps. Researchers want to know if this approach reduces inflammation and improves symptoms.
This trial compares three different biologic medications (injectable drugs) to see which one works best for people with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps. If you have moderate to severe symptoms and are considering biologic therapy, this study might help find the best option for you.
