Primary outcome measures
Mean Change From Baseline (CFBL) in Participant Reported Nasal Congestion Score (NCS) Severity
Time frame: Baseline, Week 24
NCS severity is rated by study participants using a 4-point scale (range from 0 to 3), where 0 corresponds to no symptoms and 3 corresponds to severe symptoms. Study participants are asked to record the severity of nasal congestion for the previous 24 hours. This assessment will be collected in the participant eDiary.
Mean CFBL in Endoscopic Nasal Polyp Score (NPS)
Time frame: Baseline, Week 24
The endoscopic NPS is assessed by a centralized, blinded, independent review of nasal endoscopy video recordings. The total score is the sum of the right and left nasal cavity scores. For each nasal cavity, endoscopic NPS is graded based on polyp size from 0 to 4, where 0 = no polyps and 4 = large polyps.
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Physician-diagnosed chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with bilateral nasal polyps (NP).
- Prior treatment with systemic corticosteroids (SCS) within the last 2 years (or a medical contraindication or intolerance to SCS), prior surgery for NP, or both.
- Endoscopic bilateral NPS score of at least 5 out of 8, with a minimum score of 2 in each nasal cavity performed at screening and baseline.
- Ongoing symptoms for at least 8 weeks prior to study entry (screening), including:
- Nasal congestion with moderate or severe symptom severity (score 2 or 3) at screening and a weekly average severity score of at least 1 (range 0 to 3) at randomization, and
- At least one other symptom, such as partial loss of smell (hyposmia), total loss of smell (anosmia), or anterior or posterior rhinorrhea.
- Have concomitant asthma must be stable in the 3 months prior to screening using permitted regular asthma treatment.
- Adolescent participants ≥12 to \<18 years of age and weighing ≥40 kg at time of Visit 1.
Exclusion criteria
- Have received a dose of lebrikizumab.
- Have received treatment with any rescue medication and/or have the need for surgery for NP during screening and/or run-in period.
- Allergen immunotherapy (subcutaneous immunotherapy \[SCIT\]/sublingual immunotherapy \[SLIT\]) initiated within 6 months prior to screening, that is not on a stable dose (3 months prior to screening).
- Has received a biologic treatment approved for use in CRSwNP, asthma, or AD, even if administered to treat a different condition, within 4 months or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to screening.
- Have received treatment with any biologic or systemic immunosuppressants for inflammatory disease or autoimmune disease prior to the baseline visit:
- B cell-depleting biologics, including rituximab, within 6 months.
- other biologics within 5 half-lives (if known) or 8 weeks, whichever is longer.
- Systemic immunosuppressants within 4 weeks prior to baseline.
- Have had any sinus intranasal surgery (including nasal polypectomy) within 6 months prior to screening
- Have had prior sino-nasal surgery or sinus surgery changing lateral wall structure of the nose making it difficult to assess endoscopic NPS
- Have a presence of any of the following conditions that may impact the assessment of endpoints at screening or baseline:
- Nasal septal deviation occluding at least one nostril.
- Antrochoanal polyps.
- Acute sinusitis, acute nasal infection, or acute upper respiratory infection.
- Ongoing rhinitis medicamentosa.
- Presence of another diagnosis associated with NP (ie, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Young's syndrome, primary ciliary dyskinesia, cystic fibrosis). Note: for adolescents, documentation for ruling out cystic fibrosis and primary ciliary dyskinesia is required.
- A nasal cavity tumor (malignant or benign).
- Evidence of fungal rhinosinusitis.
- Have anosmia from COVID or any reason other than CRSwNP.
- Participants with forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) 50% or less (of predicted normal) at screening.
- Female participant who is pregnant, breastfeeding, or is planning to become pregnant, or to breastfeed during the study.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
