Summary
This trial compares Dupilumab and Omalizumab to see which is better at reducing nasal polyps and improving symptoms in patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP). Both medications work by reducing inflammation but target different parts of the immune system. Omalizumab is a biologic agent that blocks the action of immunoglobulin E and has been shown to be effective in treating severe allergic asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP).
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps who've had symptoms like nasal blockage or loss of smell for at least 8 weeks, despite previous treatments. They should have used mometasone before and meet specific criteria for asthma control and body weight/IgE levels. People can't join if they've had recent sinus surgery, certain infections including HIV, severe allergies to the drugs being tested, or a history of cancer within the last 5 years.
What is being tested?
The study compares Dupilumab against Omalizumab in reducing nasal polyp size and improving sense of smell by week 24. It also looks at how these drugs affect other symptoms, lung function, quality of life, asthma control, and overall disease severity. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either drug or a placebo.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include allergic reactions to the medications such as rash or itching; possible injection site reactions like pain or swelling; headache; eye irritation; joint pain; nausea; fatigue. The exact side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.

Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
The most common treatments for Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) include Dupilumab and Omalizumab, which target specific pathways involved in the inflammatory and allergic responses. Dupilumab works by inhibiting IL-4 and IL-13, cytokines that play a crucial role in the inflammatory process, thereby reducing inflammation and tissue damage.
Omalizumab, on the other hand, inhibits IgE, preventing it from binding to receptors on mast cells and basophils, which reduces allergic reactions. These mechanisms are significant for CRS patients as they directly address the underlying causes of chronic inflammation and allergies, leading to symptom relief and improved quality of life.
