Chronic Rhinosinusitis clinical trials at UCSF
1 research study open to eligible people
Chronic rhinosinusitis is when the sinuses stay inflamed for a long period. UCSF is exploring the relationship between immune responses and nasal polyps in patients undergoing sinus surgery. This study includes people already having these operations for their chronic sinus issues.
Tissue Immune Interaction in Nasal Polyposis
open to eligible people ages 18-80
This is a cross-sectional study of up to 100 subjects who are undergoing clinically indicated sinus procedures to treat chronic rhinosinusitis. Participants will be asked to donate leftover sino-nasal secretions, sino-nasal tissue and blood as well as undergo partial characterization. As optional extensions of the main study, participants may also undergo a biopsy of extra sino-nasal tissue for additional tissue analysis and/or a more detailed characterization visit performed in the UCSF Airway Center Research Center (ACRC).
