Inclusion Criteria

  • Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply at screening:
  • 1. 18 years of age and older inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • CRSwNP / ECRS DIAGNOSIS
  • 2. Endoscopic bilateral NP score of at least 5 out of a maximum score of 8 (with a minimum score of 2 in each nasal cavity) assessed by the investigator (see Appendix 10)
  • 3.Participants who have had at least one of the following at Visit 1:
  • previous nasal surgery for the removal of NP;,
  • have used at least three consecutive days of systemic corticosteroids in the previous 2 years for the treatment of NP;,
  • medically unsuitable or intolerant to systemic corticosteroid.
  • 4. Participants (except for those in Japan) must be on daily treatment with INCS (including intranasal liquis steroid wash/douching) for at least the 8 weeks immediately prior to screening.
  • 5.Participants presenting with severe NP symptoms defined as symptoms of nasal congestion/blockade/obstruction with moderate or severe severity (VRS score of 2 or 3) and loss of smell or rhinorrhoea (runny nose) based on clinical assessment by the investigator.
  • 6.Presence of symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis as described by at least 2 different symptoms for at least 12 weeks prior to Visit 1, one of which should be either nasal blockage/obstruction/congestion or nasal discharge (anterior/posterior nasal drip), plus
  • facial pain/pressure
  • reduction or loss of smell
  • 7.Male or eligible female participants:
  • Female Participants:
  • A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and one of the following conditions applies:
  • o Is a woman of non-childbearing potential (WONCBP) as defined in Appendix 4
  • o Is a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective, with a failure rate of <1%, as described in Appendix 4, from at least 14 days prior to the first dose of study intervention until at least 30 weeks after the last administered dose of study intervention.
  • A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive serum pregnancy test at Screening Visit 1 and a negative highly sensitive urine pregnancy test within 24 hours before the first dose of study intervention. Additional requirements for pregnancy testing are located in the SoA (Section 1.3).
  • Contraceptive use by WOCBP should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
  • The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (e.g., noncompliance, recently initiated in relationship to the first dose of study intervention).
  • The investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy
  • INFORMED CONSENT
  • 8. Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this study protocol.
  • French participants: In France, a participant will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if either affiliated to or a beneficiary of a social security category
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 240
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects fo

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:
  • CONCURRENT CONDITIONS/MEDICAL HISTORY
  • 1.As a result of medical interview, physical examination, or screening investigation the physician responsible considers the participant unfit for the study
  • 2.Cystic fibrosis
  • 3.Antrochoanal polyps
  • 4.Nasal cavity tumor (malignant or benign)
  • 5.Fungal rhinosinusitis
  • 6.Severe nasal septal deviation occluding one nostril preventing full assessment of nasal polyps in both nostrils
  • 7.Participants who had a sino-nasal or sinus surgery changing the lateral wall structure of the nose making impossible the evaluation of nasal polyp score
  • 8.Acute sinusitis or upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) at screening or in 2 weeks prior to screening
  • 9.Ongoing rhinitis medicamentosa (rebound or chemical induced rhinitis)
  • 10.Participants who have had an asthma exacerbation requiring admission to hospital within 4 weeks of Screening
  • 11.Participants who have undergone any intranasal and/or sinus surgery (for example polypectomy, balloon dilatation or nasal stent insertion) within 6 months prior to Visit 1; nasal biopsy prior to Visit 1 for diagnostic purposes only is excepted.
  • 12.Participants where NP surgery is contraindicated in the opinion of the Investigator
  • 13.Eosinophilic Diseases: Participants with other conditions that could lead to elevated eosinophils such as hyper-eosinophilic syndromes including (but not limited to) EGPA (formerly known as Churg-Strauss Syndrome) or Eosinophilic Esophagitis
  • 14.Parasitic infection: Participants with a known, pre-existing parasitic infestation within 6 months prior to Visit 1
  • 15.Immunodeficiency: A known immunodeficiency (e.g. human immunodeficiency virus – HIV), other than that explained by the use of corticosteroids (CSs) taken as therapy for asthma
  • 16.Malignancy: A current malignancy or previous history of cancer in remission for less than 12 months prior to screening (NOTE:Participants that had localised carcinoma of the skin which was resected for cure will not be excluded).
  • 17.Liver Disease:
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >2x ULN
  • Total bilirubin >1.5x ULN (isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%)
  • Cirrhosis or current unstable liver or biliary disease per investigator assessment defined by the presence of ascites, encephalopathy, coagulopathy, hypoalbuminemia, oesophageal or gastric varices, persistent jaundice.
  • NOTE: Stable non-cirrhotic chronic liver disease (including Gilbert’s syndrome, asymptomatic gallstones, and chronic stable hepatitis B or C) are acceptable if participant otherwise meets entry criteria.
  • 18.Other Concurrent Medical Conditions: Participants who have known, pre-existing, clinically significant cardiac, endocrine, autoimmune, metabolic, neurological, renal, gastrointestinal, hepatic, haematological or any other system abnormalities that are uncontrolled with standard treatment.
  • 19.Vasculitis: Participants with current diagnosis of vasculitis. Participants with high clinical suspicion of vasculitis at screening will be evaluated and current vasculitis must be excluded prior to enrolment.
  • 20.Hypersensitivity: Participants with allergy/intolerance to the excipients of depemokimab in Section 6.1, a monoclonal antibody, or biologic.
  • 21.COVID-19: Participants that, according to the investigator's medical judgment, are likely to have active COVID-19 infection must be excluded. Participants with known COVID-19
