NCT ID NCT07528820
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps, a condition causing long-term nasal congestion and breathing problems. Researchers will measure inflammation markers and examine nasal tissue from 10 adults using a steroid spray (budesonide). The goal is to better understand the disease, not to test a new cure.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could provide a clearer picture of how inflammation and tissue changes drive chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, potentially guiding better treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early observational study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply broadly. It aims to gather knowledge, not test a new treatment.
