Brief Summary

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a condition of persistent sinonasal mucosal inflammation which affects 11.9% of the US population. Mepolizumab is newly approved to treat chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP, the spaces inside nose and head are swollen and inflamed) and acts booking interleukin-5 (IL-5) a protein implicated in the inflammatory process. We aim to use Single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq, a method of genetically 'barcoding' cells to allow gene expression to be profiled at the level of individual cells) to study the effects of IL-5 blockade on the generation and maintenance of nasal adaptive immune responses, in CRS subjects.

  • Compliance: is unlikely to comply with trial visits based on investigator judgment.
  • Secondary, or suspected secondary, cause of nasal polyposis:
  • EGPA, positive MPO ANCA or circulating eosinophilia \>10% total leukocytes
  • Known or suspected hereditary ciliary dysmotility (e.g: Cystic fibrosis, childhood-onset nasal polyposis)
  • Diagnosed or suspected malignant or premalignant nasal disease (e.g: Schniderian Papilloma, unilateral nasal polyposis)
