Efficacy of Dupilumab in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps and Eosinophilic Otitis Media: A Six-Month Observational Study.

Medicina (Kaunas)

August 2025

Unit of Otorhinolaryngology, Department of Adult and Development Age Human Pathology "Gaetano Barresi", University of Messina, Via Consolare Valeria 1, 98125 Messina, Italy.

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and eosinophilic otitis media (EOM) are frequently co-existing eosinophilic disorders related to type 2 inflammation, which significantly impair the quality of life of patients. Dupilumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting the IL-4 receptor alpha and anti-IL-13, has demonstrated a promising profile of efficacy and safety in the treatment of CRSwNP; however, evidence on its role in concomitant EOM and CRSwNP remains limited in the literature. This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of dupilumab in patients with concomitant CRSwNP and EOM over a six-month observational period.

The patient was being managed conservatively with antibiotics to manage symptoms of recurrent infections prior to transfer to our center. The patient developed worsening congestion, foul drainage from the arrow exit wound, as well as developing worsening facial pain.

Background: Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) represents the sole causal and preventive disease-modifying therapy currently available for allergic diseases. However, it must be acknowledged that controlled studies feature inherent results bias due to specific criteria and monitoring during the study. This real-world evidence (RWE) study was therefore designed to analyse data on large longitudinal prescriptions of different types of AIT in order to evaluate the therapeutic effect on the progression and onset of atopic dermatitis (AD).

Background: Ertugliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, is approved for glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Although clinical trials confirm its efficacy, real-world data suggest potential safety concerns. This study evaluates the post-marketing safety profile of ertugliflozin using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

Background: Managing patients with severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype (SEA) with comorbid respiratory conditions such as chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) continues to encounter significant challenges and lack of coordinated management among treating physicians.

Objective: The OverSEA study aims to provide insights into current clinical practices and formulate recommendations for managing these patients.

Methods: The two-round Delphi survey, conducted March-June 2023, was developed by a multidisciplinary 11-member Scientific Committee including pulmonologists, allergists, and ear, nose and throat specialists, and involved 205 experts from these specialties across 8 European countries.
