Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis w/o nasal polyps who meet eligibilty requirements and are undergoing sinus surgery and patients w/o sinus disease who are undergoing intranasal surgery and meet eligbility requirements

Affected patients:

  • Two or more of the following symptoms should be present for 12 weeks or more: anterior mucopurulent drainage, posterior mucopurulent drainage; nasal obstruction; and facial pain-pressure-fullness.
  • Signs of nasal inflammation such as discolored mucus, edema of the middle meatus or ethmoid area should be documented by endoscopy.
  • The symptoms of rhinosinusitis have failed to resolve or have recurred after a treatment course with antibiotics and nasal and/or oral steroids.
  • The diagnosis of rhinosinusitis should be confirmed with a CT scan.
  • Patients deny recent (within one year) cigarette smoking or exposure to inhaled substances that are potentially harmful to respiratory epithelium
  • Patients were not previously diagnosed with reactive airway disease or aspirin sensitivity.
  • Patients also must meet the standard criteria for endoscopic sinus surgery and scheduled to undergo their procedure at MMC.

Unaffected Patients:

Patients undergoing elective nasal surgery at MMC.

  • Patients deny symptoms of allergic rhinitis such as nasal congestion, nasal discharge, itching, sneezing.
  • Patients deny symptoms of chronic or acute rhinosinusitis such as nasal obstruction, facial pain-fullness-pressure, anosmia, anterior and/or posterior mucopurulent drainage.
  • Nasal endoscopy showed no evidence of nasal inflammatory disease, such as erythema, edema, polyps, or discolored mucus.
  • Patients do not have history of prior sinus surgeries and were not previously diagnosed with CRS.
  1. Patients deny recent (within one year) cigarette smoking or exposure to inhaled substances that are potentially harmful to respiratory epithelium.
  2. Patients were not diagnosed with reactive airway disease or aspirin sensitivity.
  • The absence of evidence of inflammation, such as inflammatory infiltrate or epithelial dysplasia on histopathologic exam of nasal mucosa obtained during surgical procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Rhinosinusitis w/o Nasal Polyps, run by Montefiore Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Apr 2018.
