Positionspapier: Anwendung von Biologika bei chronischer Rhinosinusitis mit Polyposis nasi (CRSwNP) im deutschen Gesundheitssystem – Empfehlungen des Ärzteverbandes Deutscher Allergologen (AeDA) und der AGs Klinische Immunologie, Allergologie und Umweltmedizin und Rhinologie und Rhinochirurgie der Deutschen Gesellschaft für HNO-Heilkunde, Kopf- und Halschirurgie (DGHNOKHC)

Zusammenfassung

Hintergrund Die chronische Rhinosinusitis (CRS) betrifft weltweit ca. 5–12 % der Allgemeinbevölkerung und wird traditionell eingeteilt in einen Phänotyp ohne (CRSsNP) und einen mit Ausbildung von Nasenpolypen (CRSwNP). Wurden Nasenpolypen bis vor kurzem eher als mechanisches Hindernis mit der Notwendigkeit einer operativen Beseitigung betrachtet, wird die CRSwNP heute als eine multifaktorielle entzündliche Erkrankung der nasalen und paranasalen Schleimhäute angesehen, der als Endotyp häufig eine T2-Inflammation zugrunde liegt. Biologika, die mit diesen Entzündungsmechanismen interferieren, stellen interessante neue Therapiemöglichkeiten dar.

Methoden Das aktuelle Wissen zur Immunologie der CRSwNP und Wirkung von Biologika wurde mittels einer Literaturanalyse durch Recherchen in Medline, PubMed sowie den nationalen und internationalen Studien- und Leitlinienregistern und der Cochrane Library zusammengestellt.

Ergebnisse Basierend auf der internationalen Literatur und bisherigen Erfahrungen werden von einem Expertengremium Empfehlungen für die Anwendung von Biologika bei CRSwNP im deutschen Gesundheitssystem auf der Grundlage eines Dokumentationsbogens gegeben.

Schlussfolgerung Das Verständnis über die immunologischen Grundlagen der CRSwNP eröffnet neue nichtoperative Therapieansätze mit Biologika für Patienten mit schweren Verlaufsformen.
