Chronic Rhinosinusitis (Diagnosis)NCT03878355
A Study of Different Endoscopic Surgery Procedures in Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps
A study testing radical endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS) plus Draf 3 surgery., radical endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS) and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in people with Chronic Rhinosinusitis (Diagnosis) and Surgery, run by Beijing Tongren Hospital.
Trial summary
CRS remains a common challenging clinical entity due to variable phenotypes with different underlying mechanisms that lead to persistence or recurrence polyps. The eosinophils dominant inflammation was considered as a major pathological hallmark and challenges of CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Long-term Outcomes of Radical Endoscopic Sinus Surgery Plus Draf 3 Procedure in Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps and Asthma: A 9-year Prospective Study
CRS remains a common challenging clinical entity due to variable phenotypes with different underlying mechanisms that lead to persistence or recurrence polyps. The eosinophils dominant inflammation was considered as a major pathological hallmark and challenges of CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Differentiate surgical approaches towards eosinophilic CRSwNP (eCRSwNP) should be addressed on the basis of the inflammatory endotypes. eCRSwNP has been recognized as the most easily relapsed type of CRS, and the combination of asthma increases the difficulty of treatment. Till now there is no recognized surgical strategy for eCRSwNP with asthma.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
radical endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS) plus Draf 3 surgery.Procedure or surgery
The procedure of RESS was completed as described in "full-house FESS (FHF)" approach, involving complete removal of all nasal polyps along with a full maxillary antrostomy, total ethmoidectomy, wide sphenoidotomy, and a Draf 2A frontal sinusotomy. Moreover the bilateral inferior two-thirds of MTs were meanwhile resected. The technique for the Draf 3 frontal drillout procedure was described in detail in previous publications with resection of the superior nasal septum, central frontal sinus floor, and frontal beak region, resulting in a widely patent, oval-shaped, common frontal sinus neo-ostium

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
recurrence
Recurrence was defined if the patient had symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis after surgery, and nasal endoscopy found nasal polyps recurrence, obvious edema of mucosa, or purulent secretion, and above of symptoms or physical signs existed, which can't be alleviated by maximum medicine treatment at least 1 month
Measured: 1 year after surgery
recurrence
Recurrence was defined if the patient had symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis after surgery, and nasal endoscopy found nasal polyps recurrence, obvious edema of mucosa, or purulent secretion, and above of symptoms or physical signs existed, which can't be alleviated by maximum medicine treatment at least 1 month
Measured: 3 years after surgery
recurrence
Recurrence was defined if the patient had symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis after surgery, and nasal endoscopy found nasal polyps recurrence, obvious edema of mucosa, or purulent secretion, and above of symptoms or physical signs existed, which can't be alleviated by maximum medicine treatment at least 1 month
Measured: 5 years after surgery
Secondary outcomes (3)
Visual analogue scale of 4 major clinical symptoms
Subjective symptoms were scored on a visual analogue scale of 0 to 10 as previously described, with 0 being no complaints whatsoever and 10 being the worst imaginable. Four major symptoms include nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, loss of smell, and headache and/or facial pain.
Measured: at baseline, and 1 year, 3years, 5 years after surgery
Sinus-specific quality of life (QoL)
Sinus-specific quality of life (QoL) was assessed using the 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22)
Measured: at baseline, and 1 year, 3years, 5 years after surgery
Postoperatively endoscopic results
Postoperatively endoscopic results were scored according to the Lund-Kennedy system, with the assessment of edema, nasal discharge, scarring, and crusting
Measured: at baseline, and 1 year, 3years, 5 years after surgery

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing radical endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS) plus Draf 3 surgery., radical endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS) and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in people with Chronic Rhinosinusitis (Diagnosis) and Surgery, run by Beijing Tongren Hospital.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
What does the primary outcome measure?
recurrence (time frame: 1 year after surgery). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
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 18 Mar 2019.
