PHASE2
Brief Summary
Phase 2, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the clinical effects of oral administration of dexpramipexole for 6 months in subjects with chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps and eosinophilia.
Detailed Description
This open-labelled study will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of dexpramipexole for reducing the number of eosinophils in the peripheral blood and in improving nasal polyp score when admi...
