What the trials found For clinicians

Nasal polyps: what the trials found

Several biologic and pharmacological interventions have demonstrated efficacy in managing nasal polyps. Mepolizumab significantly improved total endoscopic nasal polyp (NP) scores at week 52 [3, 10], reduced nasal obstruction scores 10, and decreased the number of patients requiring surgery 20. Depemokimab also showed significant improvements in NP scores [7, 8] and mean nasal obstruction scores [7, 8] over a 52-week period. Omalizumab demonstrated statistically significant reductions in Nasal Polyp Score (NPS) [4, 5, 9], average daily nasal congestion score (NCS) [4, 5, 9], and improved sense of smell scores [4, 5].

Mometasone Furoate Nasal Spray (MFNS) was shown to significantly reduce both congestion/obstruction scores and total polyp size scores 13. Fluticasone Propionate resulted in significant improvements across multiple metrics including SNOT-22 total scores and Lund-Mackay scores 12. In surgical settings, oxymetazoline improved surgical field visualization 1, while remifentanil significantly reduced the time to achieve a low intraoperative bleeding score compared to control 2. Additionally, the S8 Sinus Implant was associated with significant reductions in bilateral polyp grade and ethmoid sinus obstruction 6.

Recent results — preliminary, needs further review

  • A non-interventional study is currently ongoing or recently conducted regarding nasal polyps 21.

For the clinician treating this condition

  • Biologics such as Mepolizumab, Depemokimab, and Omalizumab are established to improve endoscopic polyp scores, reduce obstruction, and potentially decrease the frequency of surgical intervention.
  • Mometasone Furoate and Fluticasone Propionate provide established improvements in both physical polyp size and patient-reported congestion symptoms.
  • Intraoperative management with remifentanil can significantly decrease the time required to achieve acceptable bleeding control during surgery.

Questions about Nasal polyps

Are there specific genes linked to chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps?

Yes, several genes and genetic pathways are linked to chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, including FOXP3, STAT1, and miRNAs like miR-130a-3p and miR-196b-5p.
