Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study prospectively investigates the clinical outcomes of mepolizumab treatment in patients with postoperative recurrent eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis. We aim to evaluate whether mepolizumab improves patients' quality of life. Furthermore, by analyzing the backgrounds and clinical courses of patients who respond favorably to mepolizumab, we seek to identify clinical characteristics associated with treatment efficacy.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

A The following scores and subjective symptoms will be evaluated over time
Nasal obstruction visual analogue scale VAS score 0 10
Nasal polyp score Each nasal cavity will be scored from 0 to 4 total score 0 8
Overall nasal symptom self assessment based on the baseline Patients will subjectively evaluate their overall nasal symptoms including nasal obstruction nasal discharge and olfactory disturbance as worsened no change slightly improved or significantly improved

B At week 24 of treatment patients who rate their overall nasal symptoms as slightly improved or significantly improved in the self assessment will be classified as responders while the remaining patients will be classified as non responders
Factors associated with treatment responsiveness will be analyzed as follows

Clinical factors
Age
Sex
Presence or absence of other immunoallergic diseases eg bronchial asthma NSAID exacerbated respiratory disease NSAID hypersensitivity atopic dermatitis allergic rhinitis etc
History of dupilumab treatment
Tissue eosinophil count evaluated using biopsy or surgical specimens obtained prior to mepolizumab administration
Peripheral blood eosinophil count percent cells uL assessment time points specified
Serum total IgE IU mL assessment time points specified
Location of recurrent nasal polyps middle meatus olfactory cleft or sphenoethmoidal recess
