Nasal polyps can make breathing, sleeping, and daily life feel harder than it should. Our team identifies the underlying inflammation and creates a personalized treatment plan to help you breathe clearly and comfortably again.

Nasal polyps are soft, painless, noncancerous growths that develop in the sinus cavities and extend into the nasal passages. Although benign, they often lead to persistent congestion, recurrent sinus infections, and a reduced ability to smell or taste. These growths form as a result of ongoing inflammation within the sinuses.
People with chronic sinus disease and nasal polyps (known as chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, or CRSwNP) commonly experience constant nasal blockage, drainage, facial pressure, and significant fatigue. The condition frequently occurs alongside other health issues, including asthma and sensitivity to certain over-the-counter pain relievers such as NSAIDs.

For many years, nasal polyp treatment relied heavily on surgery (polypectomy) and steroid medications. While surgery can remove the polyps, they often return—sometimes in as many as 60% of cases. Steroid medications can provide temporary relief, but long-term or repeated use may lead to significant side effects, including weight gain, diabetes, osteoporosis, mood changes, and an increased risk of infections like pneumonia.
Because of these limitations, newer therapies have been developed to more precisely target the inflammation that causes nasal polyps. These advanced treatments help reduce or eliminate the need for steroids and decrease the likelihood of repeated surgeries. At Modena Allergy & Asthma – Eastlake, patients now have access to these modern, targeted options designed to control polyp growth and ease chronic sinus symptoms safely and effectively.
Their work integrates advanced tools such as microbiome analysis, genetic profiling, inflammatory biomarkers, and machine learning to better understand sinus inflammation and tailor treatment to each patient’s biology.
At Modena Allergy & Asthma – Eastlake, we are at the forefront of using predictive modeling and machine learning to guide personalized medical therapies, including the precise selection of modern monoclonal antibody treatments and other emerging options. Our practice also offers access to cutting-edge technologies and participation in clinical trials evaluating new therapies for chronic sinus disease.
For patients in Eastlake, nasal polyps no longer have to be a lifelong struggle. Our team is dedicated to providing targeted, innovative care that delivers lasting relief.

Nasal polyps are soft, painless, noncancerous growths that begin in the sinus cavities and extend into the nasal passages. Although benign, they often cause persistent congestion, reduced sense of taste or smell, recurrent sinus infections, and significant fatigue. These growths form as a result of ongoing inflammation within the sinuses.
Individuals with chronic sinus disease and nasal polyps—known as chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP)—frequently experience constant drainage, facial pressure, and debilitating tiredness. Nasal polyps also commonly occur alongside other conditions, including asthma and sensitivity to over-the-counter pain relievers such as NSAIDs.
At Modena Allergy & Asthma – Eastlake, we are currently enrolling volunteers for three clinical trials involving patients with nasal polyps. Participants may receive study-related evaluations, supplies, and medication at no cost, along with compensation of up to $100 per visit and additional travel support.
This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication for treating nasal polyps. Participants may receive either the study drug or a placebo to help researchers understand how well the treatment works.
This trial examines how well an FDA-approved nasal polyp therapy performs over an extended period of time. All participants receive active treatment, and there is no placebo group.
This study compares two FDA-approved therapies to determine how effectively each one reduces polyp size and improves sense of smell. All participants receive active treatment, and no placebo group is included.
