Studying markers in sinusitis patients having surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at tissue and blood samples from people with chronic sinusitis to find markers that could predict how the disease behaves. It may help doctors choose better treatments in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have chronic sinusitis with or without nasal polyps, and a doctor has confirmed it's severe.
- You are planning your first sinus surgery or had one between 2012 and now.

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 tests a new tool that uses light (spectroscopy) to instantly detect a type of nasal polyp during surgery. The goal is to help doctors identify polyps that are driven by eosinophils, which may guide better treatment choices for you.
This study looks at how well patients recover and their quality of life after surgery for nasal polyps caused by chronic sinusitis. It is for people in China who have just had surgery to remove nasal polyps.
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 study is looking for markers in the blood that can predict how well certain biologic drugs work for people with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps. It may help find the right treatment for you if your symptoms are not controlled with standard sprays or after surgery.
