Qualitative Analysis of Subject Experience of Nasal Polyps

Qualitative Research to Characterize the Patient Experience of Nasal Polyps

Nasal polyposis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nose and sinuses. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is embarking on a clinical program to assess treatment of severe, recurrent nasal polyps with an anti-interleukin-5 (anti-IL5) (mepolizumab). Subject specific symptomatic endpoints will form the basis for the assessment of treatment benefit of nasal polyp therapies. However, there is a lack of published qualitative data regarding nasal polyps to understand the symptoms or health-related quality of life (HRQoL) impacts. This cross-sectional qualitative study aims to address this unmet gap by conducting semi-structured combined concept elicitation (CE) and cognitive debriefing (CD) telephone interviews and real-time data capture. The combined CE and CD interviews (each 90 minutes in duration) will investigate the subject experience of nasal polyps, and the relevance and understanding of existing patient-reported outcomes (PRO) instruments. The real-time data capture conducted over a 10 day period, will investigate the subject experience of the symptoms, HRQoL impacts and treatment of nasal polyps and any day-to-day variability that exists in these experiences in 'real time'. Twenty adult subjects in the United States (US), and 10 adult subjects in Germany with severe, recurrent nasal polyps will participate in the CE and CD interviews section of the study and of these, 10 subjects from US will also complete real-time data capture app task.
