Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18 and older with both asthma and CRSwNP, whose symptoms are not well controlled and who have used systemic corticosteroids in the past year.

Probably not a fit

Patients with well-controlled asthma/CRSwNP or those not suitable for joint pulmonology-ENT management may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This interventional study examines a coordinated care approach for patients who have both asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Participants receive a joint consultation by a pulmonologist and an ENT specialist, along with nasal and mucus sampling. The goal is to see if this integrated visit leads to less reliance on systemic corticosteroids over the following 12 months by enabling more personalized treatment plans. Secondary outcomes (not fully detailed) may include changes in symptom control and other clinical endpoints. The study is conducted at AP-HM in Marseille, France, and targets adults with uncontrolled disease despite prior systemic corticosteroid use.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients could experience fewer corticosteroid-related side effects and better disease control through coordinated, personalized care.

How similar studies have gone: Prior research supports integrated care for interconnected airway diseases, but results specific to joint pulmonologist-ENT consultations are novel and not yet established widely.
