Rhinosinusitis Italian Network: the Italian Registry for Severe, Uncontrolled Chronic Rhinosinusitis (RINET)

July 18, 2024 updated by: Italian Academy of Rhinology

Rhinosinusitis Italian Network (RINET): the Italian Registry for Severe, Uncontrolled Chronic Rhinosinusitis

This observatory aims to collect, as widely as possible, the Italian cases of patients with uncontrolled CRS. Patient will be enrolled by the centers of the Italian Network of Rhinosinusitis (Rhinosinusitis Italian Network: RINET), and they will be treated using a multidisciplinary team approach (allergists, otolaryngologists and pneumologists) in a real-world clinical set-up.

This real-life chronic rhinosinusitis registry aims at longitudinal data collection from patients attending specialist care centres across Italy.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Recruiting

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The primary objectives of the study are:

  • to characterize and to describe the evolution of uncontrolled Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS);
  • to facilitate and to characterize the phenotyping and endotyping of CRS;
  • studying the efficacy and safety of the principal therapeutic strategies and approaches to uncontrolled CRS in real-life;
  • supporting the development of diagnostic methodologies and innovative therapeutic strategies for CRS;
  • to evaluate the clinical and economic-health impact of the different therapeutic approaches (including systemic corticosteroids) used for uncontrolled CRS;
  • to describe factors associated with therapeutic choices and how much this factors influence natural history of the CRS;
  • Studying and identifying biomarkers and predictors of response to different therapies;
  • to increase the "awareness" of CRS in patients, in public opinion, in the national and international scientific community, and in the Italian clinical community of the otolaryngologists, the allergists and the pneumologists.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with Severe, Uncontrolled Chronic Rhinosinusitis with or without nasal polyps according to the European Position Paper on Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps - EPOS2020 and to the EUFOREA consensus on biologics for CRSwNP with or without asthma

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with a confirmed diagnosis of bilateral Chronic Rhinosinusitis that have at least three (in case of patients previously treated with surgical approaches) or four (in case of patients never treated with nasal sinus surgery) of the following criteria:

    • Evidence of type 2 inflammation (at least 250 blood eosinophils per microliter and / or at least 10 eosinophils / HPF from a histological sample of sinus mucosa and / or at least one finding of moderate eosinophilia on nasal cytology and / or total serum IgE >100 IU / ml);
    • at least two Short courses of systemic corticosteroids or lorg-term Systemic Corticosteroids therapy for Chronic Rhinosinusitis;
    • Significant deterioration in the quality of life (Sinonasal Outcome Test 22 - SNOT-22>= 40 and / or Visual Analogue Scale - Global VAS of symptoms>= 5);
    • Loss of Smell (VAS for hyposmia> = 7)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Nasal Polyp Score
Time Frame: Every year to ten year
Change from baseline in total Nasal Polyp Score at year 1 to ten. The Nasal Polyp Score is the sum of the right and left nostril scores (maximum 8), as evaluated by nasal endoscopy.
Every year to ten year

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
