88% of patients with asthma and nasal polyps achieve dual remission on dupilumab
NCT ID NCT07574294
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 28 adults with both severe asthma and chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps who were treated with dupilumab for 24 months. The goal was to see if the drug could help control both conditions at the same time, called 'dual remission.' After 24 months, 88% of patients achieved dual remission, meaning their asthma and nasal polyps were well-controlled without needing oral steroids. However, only 32% fully recovered their sense of smell, suggesting that while the drug is very effective, smell recovery remains a challenge.

Who is studied
All patients with comorbid severe asthma and CRSwNP who initiated treatment with dupilumab at our Multidisciplinary Unit during the study period and met the pre-defined inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. No patients were excluded based on treatment response or clinical outcomes. All subjects were treated with dupilumab (initial dose of 600 mg followed by 300 mg every 2 weeks) as an add-on therapy. Inclusion criteria were a diagnosis of severe asthma according to GINA guidelines and concomitant CRSwNP eligible for biological treatment.
