What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Nasal Polyp Score (NPS)

    NPS is the sum of the left and right nostril scores evaluated through nasal endoscopy, with a total score range of 0 to 8. NPS is based on polyp grading, with a score of 0-4 based on polyp grading.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (25)
  1. Nasal congestion score (NCS)

    NCS is determined by the subjects based on the severity of the nasal congestion in the past 24 hours. This score uses a 0-3 classification scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=mild symptoms, 2=moderate symptoms, and 3=severe symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  2. Anosmia Score

    Anosmia Score is evaluated by subjects based on their severity of Anosmia on the day. This score uses a 0-3 classification scale, where 0=no symptoms, 1=mild symptoms, 2=moderate symptoms, and 3=severe symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  3. Total symptom score (TSS)

    TSS is the sum of nasal congestion, anosmia, and rhinorrhea (the average of anterior and posterior rhinorrhea), with a score range of 0-9 points. The severity is evaluated by the subject and recorded on the subject diary record card.

    Measured: Baseline up to 24 weeks

  4. Visual analogue scale (VAS) for sinusitis

    VAS for sinusitis is a questionnaire that subjective evaluation of the overall severity of sinusitis by subjects, with a score range of 0-10 points. The higher the score, the greater the impact of sinusitis on the quality of life of the subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TQC2731 injection in people with Chronic Sinusitis and Nasal Polyps, run by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. at 16 sites in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 43 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Nasal Polyp Score (NPS) (time frame: Baseline up to 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Apr 2025.
