Active clinical trials for "Polyps"

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of depemokimab (GSK3511294) in participants with CRSwNP.

This study compares different approaches to endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of large non-pedunculated colorectal polyps (≥20mm) in a 2 x 2 randomized design. The first randomization will assign half of patients to polyp resection with electrocautery ("hot" snare EMR) and half of patient to polyp resection without electrocautery ("cold" snare EMR). The second randomization will assign half of patients to polyp removal using Eleview as the submucosal injection agent, and the other half using placebo (normal saline with methylene blue) as the submucosal injection agent.

Chronic rhinosinusitis, also called chronic sinusitis, is a very common life-long disease affecting over 5% of the Canadian population. Its symptoms, including daily facial pain and headache, an inability to breath through the nose and complete smell loss, regularly impair one's ability to work and to enjoy and participate in daily activities. The annual cost of chronic sinusitis to Canada is estimated at $1.3 billion while the government pays an estimated $860 million yearly for chronic sinusitis treatment. Chronic sinusitis with polyps, the most common type of chronic sinusitis, is usually treated with a combination of medications and surgery. Until now, surgical treatment has only been performed in the operating room, at a cost of about $3500 per procedure. But, recent studies have shown that a new procedure, "in-clinic polyp removal", can provide an improvement in patient symptoms to levels equal to those for sinus surgery performed in a hospital operating room. Moreover, in clinic polyp removal has additional advantages including a shorter procedure recovery time, a significantly lower cost to the health care system (about one-tenth the cost or $450), and a shorter wait time for treatment. With the proposed pragmatic trial, the investigators will determine whether the in clinic polyp removal procedure is as good as sinus surgery in the operating room at controlling patient symptoms of chronic sinusitis. The investigators will also determine the cost and health-benefits for a patient, the healthcare system and for society of in clinic polyp removal in comparison to sinus surgery done in a hospital operating room. The investigators will then know if this new treatment, in clinic polyp removal, can replace sinus surgery as the standard of care for these patients.

This is an open-label, single-arm, multicenter, extension study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of CM310 in patients with CRSwNP.

Background and rationale: Phase III-b study. Population and patient selection criteria: Adult patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (allergic and non-allergic) requiring at least 1000 mg oral prednisone over the previous twelve months to control symptoms of rhinosinusitis, and with: Nasal polyps score (Meltzer et al.) ≥ 5 Symptoms VAS scores (for nasal obstruction, hyposmia, post-nasal drip, sneezing, rhinorrea; 0-10 for each symptom) > 24 Sample size: 20 subjects. Study design and study duration: This is a pilot, prospective, double-blind placebo-controlled (DBPC) phase III-b trial with Benralizumab 30 mg administered subcutaneously every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses and then every 8 weeks, for a treatment-period of 16 weeks (followed up at 32 and 52 weeks) in patients with chronic rhinosinusinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Description of study treatment/product/intervention: Benralizumab, 30 mg subcutaneously every 4 week for the first 3 doses, and then every 8 weeks. Objectives: Primary objective: To assess the clinical efficacy of Benralizumab on CRSwNP at week 24 (vs baseline) after the beginning of treatment, and to correlate the presence of baseline biomarkers with nasal polyp (NP) score improvement, in order to identify any possible predictive biomarker of response to Benralizumab. Secondary objective: In the follow up phase we will monitor all the biomarkers at 32 and 52 weeks , this monitoring will ascertain if any of those will predict relapse of nasal polyps and consequently when Benralizumab treatment has to be reinstalled. Safety objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Benralizumab in patients with CRSwNP Statistical methods, data analysis: Descriptive analysis of all collected variables at all time-points will be performed. Patients will be classified into "responders" and "non responders", for primary endopoint variable. Continuous variables will be evaluated with the normality test of Kolmogorov-Smirnov and compared with ANOVA or the Mann-Whitney test, depending on the normality of distribution. Categorical variables will be compared using Fisher's exact test. Ethical considerations: The study will be performed in accordance with ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and are consistent with ICH/Good Clinical Practice, applicable regulatory requirements and the Sponsor policy on Bioethics and Human Biological Samples.

With the continuous development of microsurgery, supporting laryngoscopy acoustic polyp removal has become a very mature clinical operation. The operation has small trauma, short operation time, fast turnover and needing to wake up as soon as possible, but the supporting laryngoscopy has great stimulation to the throat and great hemodynamic fluctuations. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound guided superior laryngeal nerve block as an adjuvant to general anesthesia during vocal cord polypectomy by laryngoscopy.

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of brensocatib at 10 and 40 milligrams (mg) once daily (QD) compared with placebo in improving clinical symptoms of CRSsNP.

It is necessary to retrieve the resected polyp to determine the pathological nature of polyp and to judge the completeness of resection in polypectomy. For polyps with a larger diameter (>5mm), the most reliable way to retrieve them is to suck them out with the colonoscope. However, this method requires multiple colonoscope insertions, resulting in prolonged operation time and increased patient suffering. Therefore, clinicians often receive polyps by pressing the colonoscope suction valve. But it is difficult to receive polyps or even fail to receive. Even if the polyps were successfully received by this method, many polyps were fragmented. When the polyp is fragmented, the pathologist cannot be sure of the completeness of the polyp removal. By removing the colonoscope suction valve and connecting a polyp trap to suction onto the instrument channel port, the polyp fragmentation rate was reduced greatly. To further reduce the polyp fragmentation rate, while reducing the operation time and colon insertions, we applied the polyp receiving bag in colonoscopy operations. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the application of the polyp retrieving bag to reduce the polyp fragmentation rate.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of depemokimab (GSK3511294) in participants with CRSwNP.
