Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) is a subtype of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps in Japanese. ECRS highly associated with asthma is a refractory eosinophilic airway inflammation and requires comprehensive care as part of the united airway concept. We recently reported a series of ECRS patients with asthma treated with fine-particle inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) exhalation through the nose (ETN). To evaluate fine-particle ICS ETN treatment as a potential therapeutic option in ECRS with asthma. Twenty-three patients with severe ECRS under refractory to intranasal corticosteroid treatment were randomized in a double-blind fashion to receive either HFA-134a-beclomethasone dipropionate (HFA-BDP) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) ETN ( = 11) or placebo MDI ETN ( = 12) for 4 weeks. Changes in nasal polyp score, computed tomographic (CT) score, smell test, and quality of life (QOL) score from baseline were assessed. Fractionated exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) was measured as a marker of eosinophilic airway inflammation. Response to corticosteroids was evaluated before and after treatment. Additionally, deposition of fine-particles was visualized using a particle deposition model. To examine the role of eosinophils on airway inflammation, BEAS-2B human bronchial epithelial cells were co-incubated with purified eosinophils to determine corticosteroid sensitivity. HFA-BDP MDI ETN treatment improved all assessed clinical endpoints and corticosteroid sensitivity without any deterioration in pulmonary function. FENO and blood eosinophil number were reduced by HFA-BDP MDI ETN treatment. The visualization study suggested that ETN at expiratory flow rates of 10-30 L/min led to fine particle deposition in the middle meatus, including the sinus ostia. Co-incubation of eosinophils with BEAS-2B cells induced corticosteroid resistance. Additional HFA-BDP MDI ETN treatment was beneficial in patients with ECRS and should be considered as a potential therapeutic option for eosinophilic airway inflammation such as ECRS with asthma.
