Abstract
<b>Objective:</b>Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the nasal and paranasal sinus mucosa. Patients commonly experience symptoms such as nasal congestion, loss of smell, rhinorrhea, and facial pain or pressure, which significantly impair patients' quality of life. Stapokibart is an anti-interleukin-4 receptor α (IL-4Rα) monoclonal antibody. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of stapokibart on improving patients' quality of life. <b>Methods:</b>In the phase 3 CROWNS-2 study, patients were randomized 1︰1 to receive stapokibart or placebo once every 2 weeks for 24 weeks. Both groups then received stapokibart for 28 weeks, followed by an 8-week safety follow-up period. This post-hoc analysis of the CROWNS-2 study assessed the effects of stapokibart on 22-item sinonasal outcome test (SNOT-22) domain scores. <b>Results:</b>During the double-blind period, stapokibart significantly improved multiple SNOT-22 domain scores, including the Nasal, Ear/facial, Sleep, and Emotion domains, compared with placebo. These improvements were maintained and further progressed during the open-label extension and subsequent safety follow-up periods. <b>Conclusion:</b>Stapokibart provides significant clinical benefits across multiple dimensions of quality of life, offering important clinical evidence for the long-term management of CRSwNP. <b>目的:</b>慢性鼻窦炎伴鼻息肉(chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps,CRSwNP)是一种以鼻腔及鼻窦黏膜慢性炎症为主要特征的疾病,患者常出现鼻堵、嗅觉减退、流涕及头面部疼痛等症状,对生活质量造成显著影响。 <b>方法:</b>司普奇拜单抗通过靶向白细胞介素-4受体α亚基(IL-4 receptor α,IL-4Rα),阻断IL-4和IL-13信号通路,从而发挥作用。本研究基于CROWNS-2 Ⅲ期临床研究开展事后分析,采用鼻窦结局测试22条量表(22-item sinonasal outcome test,SNOT-22)评估司普奇拜单抗对CRSwNP患者在各生活质量症状域的改善情况。 <b>结果:</b>在双盲期内,与安慰剂相比,司普奇拜单抗显著改善了患者的鼻部症状、耳/面部症状、睡眠障碍及情绪等多个SNOT-22症状域评分。上述改善在开放标签扩展研究及后续安全随访阶段得以维持或进一步改善。 <b>结论:</b>司普奇拜单抗可在多个生活质量维度为CRSwNP患者带来快速且显著的临床获益,并具有良好的疗效持续性,为CRSwNP患者的长期管理提供了重要的临床依据。.Source: PubMed (PMID: 42402685)View Original on PubMed
