NCT ID NCT06834360
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This Phase 3 trial tests itepekimab, an injectable drug, in 216 adults with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps that are not well-controlled by standard nasal sprays. Participants receive itepekimab or a placebo for 52 weeks, plus a nasal spray. The study measures changes in polyp size and nasal congestion. It aims to see if itepekimab can improve symptoms and reduce the need for surgery or steroids.
