NCT ID NCT07290140

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests whether a balloon coated with the drug paclitaxel, used during standard sinus surgery, can reduce the need for additional procedures or medications in adults with chronic sinusitis. About 300 participants will receive either the drug-coated balloon or a plain balloon during surgery, and researchers will track complications and how well symptoms are controlled over 12 months. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients manage their condition with fewer follow-up interventions.
