Natural Way to Treat Nasal Polyps
Analyses were conducted in a pre-specified subgroup ofpatients with corticosteroid-refractory Nasal Polyps and comorbid asthma enrolled in phase III, placebo-controlled, 24-week, trials of omalizumab,P OLYP1 (n574) and POLYP2 (n577). The odds of achieving minimallyimportant difference (MID;>_0.5 points) in the Asthma Quality of Life (AQLQ) at Week 24 and mean change from baseline toWeek 24 in the sino-nasal outcome test
At baseline, mean Quality of Life scores were 4.6 (1.4) and 5.1(1.3) and mean SNOT-22 scores were 62.2 (18.0) and 61.7 (17.3) inpatients with asthma from POLYP1 and POLYP2. Omalizumab-treatedpatients were significantly more likely than placebo-treated patients toachieve MID in AQLQ in each study. In the pooled population, the oddsratio for achieved MID improvement in AQLQ was 3.9 (95% CI: 1.5, 9.7;P50.0043). Among patients with comorbid asthma, the SNOT-22improvement from baseline to Week 24 was significantly greater in oma-lizumab than placebo groups in each study. In the pooled population ofasthma patients, mean improvement from baseline to Week 24 in SNOT-22 was 23.2 vs -8.4 for omalizumab vs placebo (P<0.0001). Adverseevents were generally similar between study arms.
Among Nasal Polyps patients and comorbid asthma, this natural way significantly improved quality of life measured by SNOT-22 andodds of improving AQLQ
