Biologicals in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps – position of the Polish Society of Otorhinolaryngologists –Head and Neck Surgeons and the Polish Society of Allergology experts

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) has a significant impact on the well-being and social functions of the patient. The generalized inflammatory process with the formation of nasal polyps and excess eosinophils in the mucosa of the paranasal sinuses is called type 2 inflammation, which is mediated by Th2 lymphocytes – cells of the immune system responsible for chronic inflammatory processes. Today, we also know the key pro-inflammatory mediators against which new drugs have been developed, the so-called biological drugs, are produced in cell lines. In this document, we present currently available biologicals approved for the treatment of patients with T2-related chronic rhinosinusitis.
