According to the results reported on ClinicalTrials.gov, this trial (NCT03478930) enrolled 249 adults with nasal polyps — 126 who had previously received a placebo in earlier related studies, and 123 who had previously received omalizumab (an injectable medicine). The trial was measuring several things over 24 weeks: the size of nasal polyps (scored on a scale of 0–8), the severity of nasal congestion (scored 0–3 daily by participants), overall nasal symptoms combined into a total score (0–12), and reduced sense of smell (scored 0–3). The trial also tracked how many participants experienced unwanted health events (called adverse events) during the study. The reported data shows that, for nasal polyp size, the placebo group's score changed by around −0.97 points by the final recorded time point, while the omalizumab group's score changed by around −1.31 points (both reductions from their starting scores, on the 0–8 scale). For nasal congestion (0–3 scale), the reported change was approximately −0.31 points in the placebo group and −0.85 points in the omalizumab group at the final time point. For the combined nasal symptom score (0–12 scale), the placebo group's score changed by roughly −0.92 points and the omalizumab group's by roughly −2.82 points. For reduced sense of smell (0–3 scale), the reported changes were approximately −0.23 and −0.56 points respectively. Regarding unwanted health events, the reported data shows that 49.6% of the placebo group and 43.5% of the omalizumab group experienced at least one adverse event, while serious adverse events were reported in 4.8% of the placebo group and 2.4% of the omalizumab group. Less than 1% of participants in either group stopped the study due to an adverse event. These are the results as reported to ClinicalTrials.gov.
