China CRSwNP Registry Study

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a long-lasting inflammatory disease of the nose and sinuses that can cause nasal blockage, loss of smell, nasal discharge, facial discomfort, sleep problems, and reduced quality of life. POLARIS is a prospective, multicenter, real-world, non-interventional registry study. It will enroll approximately 1,000 adolescents and adults aged 12 years or older with bilateral CRSwNP at about 33 centers in China and follow them for 36 months. All treatment decisions will be made by the treating physicians according to routine clinical practice. The study will not assign participants to any treatment. The study aims to describe the disease burden, underlying inflammatory characteristics, real-world treatment patterns, effectiveness of current treatments, and long-term outcomes of Chinese patients with CRSwNP. Key assessments will include changes in nasal symptoms measured by the Total Nasal Symptom Score, changes in disease-related quality of life measured by the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test, and the proportions of patients classified as cured, controlled, or uncontrolled at months 12, 24, and 36. The study will also examine treatment escalation, surgery, systemic corticosteroid and biologic use, health care and economic burden, safety events, and clinical characteristics and biomarkers associated with persistent high disease burden or frequent treatment escalation.
