About

This is a multi-center, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of CM326 in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.

Full description

Subjects who meet eligibility criteria will be randomized to receive either CM326 or placebo subcutaneously.

Enrollment: 88 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 70 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

• Have symptoms or whose CT scan suggests allergic fungal sinusitis.
• With malignant or benign neoplasm of nasal cavities.
• With other uncontrolled serious diseases or recurrent chronic diseases.
• Have severe hepatic and renal impairment.
• Have received live attenuated vaccines within 12 weeks prior to randomization, or during the planned study; or have received inactivated vaccines (e.g., novel coronavirus vaccines) within 30 days prior to randomization.
• With known or suspected immunosuppression, including, but not limited to, the history of invasive opportunistic infections.
• Subjects who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding during the study.
