Study Design: The RESOLVE II study was a randomized, controlled, double-blind, multicenter study with 300 patients. Patients were ≥ 18 years of age with chronic sinusitis who had prior bilateral total ethmoidectomy, and were indicated for revision endoscopic surgery because they presented with moderate to severe nasal obstruction/congestion symptoms and recurrent bilateral sinus obstruction due to sinonasal polyposis despite the use of intranasal corticosteroid sprays and recent high dose steroids. 201 patients were randomized to the SINUVA treatment arm where they underwent bilateral placement of SINUVA in the ethmoid sinuses. 99 patients were randomized to the control arm where they received a sham procedure. Patients in both study arms received once daily mometasone furoate nasal spray (200 μg) through Day 90.1,3

MF, mometasone furoate; SD, standard deviation.

INDICATION

SINUVA Sinus Implant is a corticosteroid-eluting (mometasone furoate) implant indicated for the treatment of nasal polyps, in patients ≥ 18 years of age who have had ethmoid sinus surgery.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Patients with known hypersensitivity to mometasone furoate and any of the ingredients of the SINUVA Sinus Implant.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Local Effects: Monitor nasal mucosa adjacent to the SINUVA Sinus Implant for any signs of bleeding (epistaxis), irritation, infection, or perforation. Avoid use in patients with nasal ulcers or trauma.

Ocular Effects: Monitor patients with a change in vision or with a history of increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, and/or cataracts closely.

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, including rash, pruritus, and angioedema have been reported with the use of corticosteroids.

Immunosuppression: Persons who are using drugs that suppress the immune system are more susceptible to infections than healthy individuals. Corticosteroids should be used with caution, if at all, in patients with active or quiescent tuberculosis infection of the respiratory tract; untreated systemic fungal, bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections; or ocular herpes simplex.

Hypercorticism and Adrenal Suppression: If corticosteroid effects such as hypercorticism and adrenal suppression appear in patients, consider sinus implant removal.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common adverse reactions observed (> 1% of subjects and that occurred more frequently in the treatment group compared to control) in clinical studies were asthma, headache, epistaxis, presyncope, bronchitis, otitis media, and nasopharyngitis.

POSTMARKETING EXPERIENCE

The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of the SINUVA sinus implant. These events include implant migration, lack of efficacy, nasal pain, headache, epistaxis.
