About adverse events of targeted therapy for polypous rhinosinusitis

At the present time, usage of monoclonal antibodies is the most progressive method of pathogenetic therapy of polypous rhinosinusitis. The innovation of targeted therapy is based on the inhibition of key cytokines IL-4, IL-13 involved in pathogenetic remodeling of the mucous membrane of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses at the stages of emerging T2 inflammation. At the same time, certain issues remain unresolved, concerning administration of monoclonal antibodies for treatment of nasal polyposes. We provide a brief historical review of publications devoted to efficiency analysis of biological therapy. In this context, registration of adverse events upon usage of targeted monoclonal antibody therapy becomes extremely valuable, along with prediction of long-term treatment results and assessment of immune status of the patients.
