Pivotal Trial
Summary
This trial tests benralizumab injections in patients with severe nasal polyps who haven't responded to other treatments. The medication reduces specific cells that cause inflammation, aiming to improve symptoms. Benralizumab has been studied for its effects on severe asthma and nasal polyps.
Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-75 with severe nasal polyps, stable on intranasal corticosteroids, and a history of systemic steroids or sinus surgery. Must have ongoing symptoms for at least 12 weeks, moderate to severe nasal blockage, and certain blood eosinophil levels. Excludes those who've had recent biologic treatments or sinus surgery, are pregnant/breastfeeding, or have conditions affecting trial evaluation.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness and safety of Benralizumab (30 mg) compared to a placebo in patients with severe nasal polyposis. It's randomized and double-blind meaning neither participants nor researchers know who gets the real treatment versus placebo.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of Benralizumab may include common cold symptoms, headache, sore throat, fever; rare but serious effects like allergic reactions can occur.

Research Highlights

Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
Common treatments for nasal polyps, such as Benralizumab, work by targeting and depleting eosinophils, which are key contributors to inflammation and polyp formation. Corticosteroids reduce inflammation by inhibiting multiple inflammatory pathways, while biologics like Dupilumab block IL-4 and IL-13 signaling to reduce inflammation.
These mechanisms are important for patients to understand as they directly address the underlying causes of nasal polyps, leading to better symptom control and improved quality of life.
