Summary

This study tests if the drug bevacizumab can help adults with a rare condition called recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP), which causes wart-like growths in the airways that often need repeated surgeries. About 21 participants will receive the drug through an IV after surgery to see if it lengthens the time between needed surgeries. The goal is to reduce how often people need operations to keep their airways clear.
