Leveraging Learnings from Aligned Clinician and Patient CRSwNP Education to Characterize Barriers to Biologic Adoption
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a chronic condition where growths called polyps form in the nose and sinuses, often due to underlying type 2 inflammation. CRSwNP can cause severe congestion, facial pain and pressure, and loss of smell, impairing quality of life and making daily tasks more difficult. For years, surgery was the main treatment for CRSwNP, and many patients still benefit from it. But polyps return and before the advent of biologics, treatment choices were limited. Today, biologics offer a targeted approach by addressing the underlying inflammation. They can reduce polyp size and improve sense of smell. However, many clinicians and patients remain unfamiliar with these treatments, underscoring the need for education. […]
