About this trial

Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is commonly performed in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) to improve sinus drainage and allow better delivery of topical therapies after surgery. Despite surgery, postoperative inflammation can persist and negatively affect healing and outcomes.

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial will evaluate whether intra-sinus administration of a gel-forming suspension containing povidone-iodine and budesonide improves postoperative endoscopic outcomes of the sinus cavities three months following ESS, compared with placebo.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Povidone-Iodine and Budesonide Gel-Forming Suspension

    Drug

    A gel-forming suspension containing povidone-iodine and budesonide administered intra-sinus at the completion of endoscopic sinus surgery, intended to reduce postoperative inflammation and improve sinus cavity healing.

  • Placebo Gel-Forming Suspension

    Drug

    A gel-forming suspension without povidone-iodine or budesonide administered intra-sinus at the completion of endoscopic sinus surgery.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Change in Modified Lund-Kennedy (MLK) Endoscopic Score

Change in the Modified Lund-Kennedy (MLK) endoscopic score comparing baseline to 12 weeks following endoscopic sinus surgery. The MLK score is a validated endoscopic scoring system assessing sinonasal inflammation, including edema and polyps, with higher scores indicating worse disease severity.

Time frame
12 weeks postoperatively

Secondary outcomes

1

Scar Tissue Formation

Presence and severity of postoperative scar tissue formation assessed by nasal endoscopy.

Time frame
Up to 24 weeks postoperatively

Other outcomes
