ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the long-term safety and effectiveness of a new treatment called TQH2722 injection for people with chronic sinusitis, which is a condition that causes ongoing inflammation of the sinuses. This trial is open to adults aged 18 to 75, regardless of gender, who have been diagnosed with chronic sinusitis, with or without nasal polyps. To participate, individuals must have completed a previous part of the study, be using a stable dose of nasal steroid medication, and agree to use effective contraception during the study period.

Participants in this trial can expect to receive either a lower or higher dose of the TQH2722 injection to see how well it works over time. They will also be monitored closely for any side effects or reactions to the treatment. It's important to note that certain individuals, such as those with specific health conditions or who have recently undergone certain types of treatment, may not be eligible to join. Overall, this study aims to provide more information about TQH2722 and how it may help manage chronic sinusitis for patients in the long run.

• • Age 18-75 years old (including the threshold), male or female;

• Exclusion Criteria:
• • In the main study (TQH2722-II-02), a TQH2722-related SAE occurred or TQH2722-related AE led to the discontinuation of TQH2722 therapy, and after discussion between the investigator and sponsor, the subject was deemed unsuitable for continuation of TQH2722 therapy.
• • The subjects had poor compliance in the main study, and the researchers judged that they could not complete the continuing study.
• • During the main study (TQH2722-II-02), any severe progression or poorly controlled concomitant disease (such as asthma exacerbation requiring adjustment of background medication) is identified and the subject is deemed unfit to participate by the principal investigator;

• • 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>2.5 upper limit of normal (ULN);
