Nasal Polyps clinical trials at UCSF
1 research study open to eligible people
Nasal polyps are small, benign growths inside the nose. UCSF is researching the interaction between the immune system and nasal polyps in people having sinus surgery. Up to 100 participants will be included in this study.
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).
