  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Participants must be 18 years of age or older.
  • Participants with a history of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) for at least 1 year prior to screening
  • Participants must have at least one of the following features:
  • Prior sinonasal surgery for nasal polyps (NP).
  • Worsening symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroid(s) (SCS) within the prior 1 year before screening (Visit 1).
  • An endoscopic bilateral Nasal Polyp Score (NPS) of at least 5 out of maximum score of 8 (with a minimum score of 2 in each nasal cavity) at screening and randomization.
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Ongoing symptoms (for at least 12 weeks before Visit 1) of:
  • Nasal congestion/blockade/obstruction with moderate or severe (symptom severity score 2 or 3) at Visit 1 and a weekly average severity of greater than 1 in the week before randomization (Visit 2), AND
  • At least one of the following two symptoms: loss of smell or rhinorrhea (anterior/posterior).
  • A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least 1 of the following conditions applies:
  • Is not a women of childbearing potential (WOCBP), OR
  • Is a WOCBP and agrees to use a contraceptive method that is highly effective, with a failure rate of <1% during the study (at a minimum until 20 weeks after the last dose of study intervention).

Who cannot join

  • Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:
  • Participants with a history of clinically significant renal, hepatic, metabolic, neurologic, hematologic, ophthalmologic, respiratory (excluding those with asthma and aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) which may be included in the study), gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, or other significant medical illness or disorder, which, in the judgment of the Investigator, could interfere with the study or require treatment that might interfere with the study.
  • Participants who are currently smoking tobacco and/or vaping, or participants in whom smoking/vaping cessation has occurred <6 months prior to Screening (Visit 1). Nicotine replacement therapy and/or noninhaled tobacco product use are not considered current smoking of tobacco.
  • Participants meet any contraindications for mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) such as hypersensitivity to MFNS or any of its components; or participants with uncontrolled opportunistic infections.
  • Participants with a history of a severe systemic hypersensitivity reaction to a mAb.
  • Participants with conditions/concomitant diseases making them non-evaluable at Visit 1 or for the primary efficacy endpoint.
Show all 14Show fewer
  • Participants with nasal cavity malignant tumor and benign tumors (eg, papilloma, blood boil etc).
  • Participants with severe uncontrolled asthma with history of 2 and/or more exacerbations, requiring SCS or 1 hospitalization requiring SCS in the past year.
  • History of concomitant lung disease (other than asthma, eg, COPD, interstitial lung disease) which in the opinion of the Investigator could interfere with performance and interpretation of spirometry.
  • Participants treated with intranasal corticosteroid(s) (INCS) (MFNS is permitted), intranasal emitting devices/stents, nasal spray using exhalation delivery system such as XhanceTM during the screening period. In Japan and China INCS other than MFNS are permitted.
  • Participants who have undergone any sinus intranasal surgery (including polypectomy) within 6 months before Visit 1.
  • Participants who received SCS 1 month prior to Screening (Visit 1) or during the screening period (between Visit 1 and Visit 2).
  • Known allergy to itepekimab or its excipients, or any drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, contraindicates participation in this study.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in the endoscopic NPS

    The Nasal Polyp Score (NPS) is the sum of the right and left nostril scores, as evaluated by means of nasal endoscopy. Nasal polyp is graded based on polyp size from 0 to 4 with higher scores indicating larger polyps. The sum of right and left nostril scores ranges from 0 (no polyps) to 8 (large polyps).

    Measured: Baseline to Week 24

  2. Change from baseline in the NCS

    The Nasal Congestion Score (NCS) is scored using a 0-3 categorical scale where 0 = no symptoms, 1 = mild symptoms, 2 = moderate symptoms and 3 = severe symptoms.

    Outcome value is defined as the preceding 28-day average of morning scores recorded in eDiary.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 24

Secondary outcomes (22)
  1. Change from baseline in endoscopic NPS

    The NPS is the sum of the right and left nostril scores, as evaluated by means of nasal endoscopy. Nasal polyp is graded based on polyp size from 0 to 4 with higher scores indicating larger polyps. The sum of right and left nostril scores ranges from 0 (no polyps) to 8 (large polyps).

    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

  2. Change from baseline in NCS

    The NCS is scored using a 0-3 categorical scale where 0 = no symptoms, 1 = mild symptoms, 2 = moderate symptoms and 3 = severe symptoms.

    Outcome value is defined as the preceding 28-day average of morning scores recorded in eDiary.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

  3. Change from baseline in opacification of sinuses assessed by Computed Tomography (CT) scan using the LMK score

    The Lund-Mackay (LMK) system is based on localization with points given for degree of opacification: 0 = normal, 1 = partial opacification, 2 = total opacification. These points are then applied to the maxillary, anterior ethmoid, posterior ethmoid, sphenoid, frontal sinus on each side. The osteomeatal complex is graded as 0 = not occluded, or 2 = occluded, deriving a maximum score of 12 per side. The total score is the sum of scores from each side and ranges from 0 (normal) to 24 (total opacification).

    Measured: Baseline to Week 24

  4. Change from baseline in the TSS (nasal congestion/obstruction, anterior/posterior rhinorrhea, and loss of sense of smell)

    The CRSwNP Total Symptom Score (TSS) is a composite score derived from nasal congestion (NC)/obstruction, anterior/posterior rhinorrhea, and loss of smell. The total score ranges from 0 to 9 with higher scores on TSS indicating greater overall symptom severity.

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  5. Change from baseline in loss of smell severity score using the daily CRSwNP sinonasal symptom eDiary, and UPSIT score

    The CRSwNP sinonasal symptom diary is designed to assess the severity of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) sinonasal symptoms on daily basis. These symptoms include NC/obstruction, anterior rhinorrhea and posterior rhinorrhea, facial pain/pressure, loss of smell, and headache. Each of the individual items of the diary are scored from 0 ("No symptoms") to 3 ("Severe symptoms - symptoms that are hard to tolerate, cause interference with activities or daily living"). Higher scores on the items of the individual symptoms denote greater symptom severity.

    The University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) test is a rapid and easy-to-administer method to quantitatively assess human olfactory function. The total score ranges from 0 (anosmia) to 40 (normosmia).

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  6. Change from baseline in SNOT-22 total score

    The Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22-Items (SNOT-22) is a patient-reported outcome questionnaire designed to assess the impact of CRS on patient's Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). It has 22 items covering five domains: Nasal, Ear/Facial, Sleep, Function, and Emotion. A global score ranging from 0 to 110 with higher score indicating greater rhinosinusitis related health burden.

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  7. Change from baseline in PROMIS SD-SF-8b scores

    The Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Sleep Disturbance - Short Form 8b (SD-SF-8b) is a generic 8-item sleep disturbance assessment that evaluates difficulties with falling asleep, staying asleep, and getting enough sleep; and perceptions on the quality and satisfaction of sleep. Scores are calculated with a conversion of the raw score (score range 8 to 40) into a standardized T-score with the mean of the 50 and SD of 10, where higher scores indicate more disturbed sleep.

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  8. Proportion of participants with CRSwNP requiring systemic corticosteroid(s) (SCS) or surgery for CRS

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 52

  9. Annualized rate of SCS course or surgery for CRS

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 52

  10. Time to first either SCS or surgery for CRS

    Measured: Baseline through Week 52

  11. Change from baseline in pre-BD FEV1 (in mL) in participants with co-morbid asthma

    Pre-BD FEV1: pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  12. Change from baseline in ACQ-5 score in participants with co-morbid asthma

    The Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) is a questionnaire that measures the adequacy of asthma control and any changes in asthma control that may occur spontaneously or as a result of treatment. The ACQ-5 has 5 questions on the asthma symptoms. The global score is the mean of the item responses and ranges from 0 and 6 with higher score indicating lower asthma control.

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  13. Change from the baseline in NPS and NCS in the subgroup of patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD)

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  14. Proportion of participants with AERD requiring SCS or surgery for CRS

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 52

  15. Annualized rate of SCS course or surgery for CRS in participants with AERD

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 52

  16. Time to first either SCS or surgery for CRS in participants with AERD

    Measured: Baseline through Week 52

  17. Change from baseline in pre-BD FEV1 (in ml) in participants with AERD

    Pre-BD FEV1: pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second

    Measured: Baseline to Weeks 24 and 52

  18. Proportion of NPS responders (defined as participants with improvement by at least 1 point in NPS)

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 52

  19. Proportion of NPS responders (defined as participants with improvement by at least 2 points in NPS)

    Measured: Weeks 24 and 52

  20. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs), treatment-emergent adverse events of special interest (TEAESIs) and TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation

    Measured: Baseline to End of Study (EOS) (Week 72)

  21. Itepekimab concentration in serum

    Measured: Baseline to EOS (Week 72)

  22. Incidence of treatment-emergent anti-itepekimab antibody (ADA) responses

    Measured: Baseline to EOS (Week 72)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Itepekimab (SAR440340) and Mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) in people with Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps, run by Sanofi at 121 sites in 21 countries.

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 14 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 121 sites in United States, Japan, Spain, Germany, South Korea and 16 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Change from baseline in the endoscopic NPS (time frame: Baseline to Week 24). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Oct 2026.
