-An endoscopic bilateral NPS of at least 5 out of a maximum score of 8 (with a minimum score of 2 in each nasal cavity).

-Ongoing symptoms (for at least 8 weeks before V1) of nasal congestion/ blockage/obstruction with moderate or severe symptom severity (score 2 or 3) at V1 and a weekly average severity of greater than 1 at time of randomization (V2), and another symptom such as loss of smell, rhinorrhea (anterior/posterior).

-Signed written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

- Patients <18 years of age.

- Patient who has been previously treated in dupilumab studies.

- Patient who has taken:

-Biologic therapy/ systemic immunosuppressant to treat inflammatory disease or autoimmune disease (eg, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, primary biliary cirrhosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, etc.) within 2 months before V1 or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer.

-Any experimental monoclonal antibody (mAB) within 5 half-lives or within 6 months before V1 if the half-life is unknown.

-Anti-immunoglobulin E therapy (omalizumab) within 130 days prior to V1.

-Leukotriene antagonists/modifiers unless patient is on a continuous treatment for at least 30 days prior to V1.

- Initiation of allergen immunotherapy within 3 months prior to V1 or a plan to begin therapy or change its dose during the run-in period or the randomized treatment period.

- Patients who have undergone any intranasal and/or sinus surgery (including polypectomy) within 6 months before V1.

- Patients who have had a sinonasal or sinus surgery changing the lateral wall structure of the nose making impossible the evaluation of NPS.

- Patients with conditions/concomitant diseases making them non evaluable at V1 or for the primary
efficacy endpoint such as:

-Antrochoanal polyps,

-Nasal septal deviation that would occlude at least one nostril,

-Acute sinusitis, nasal infection or upper respiratory infection,

-Ongoing rhinitis medicamentosa,

-Allergic granulomatous angiitis (Churg-Strauss syndrome), granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener’s granulomatosis),Young’s syndrome, Kartagener’s syndrome or other dyskinetic ciliary
syndromes, concomitant cystic fibrosis,

-Radiologic suspicion, or confirmed invasive or expansive fungal rhinosinusitis.

- Patients with nasal cavity malignant tumor and benign tumors (eg, papilloma, blood boil etc.).

- Patients with forced expiratory volume (FEV1) 50% or less (of predicted normal).

- Patients receiving concomitant treatment prohibited in the study.

- Treatment with a live (attenuated) vaccine within 12 weeks before the baseline visit.

- History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or positive HIV serology at screening.

- Positive with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis C antibody at the screening visit.

- Active chronic or acute infection requiring systemic treatment within 2 weeks before the Baseline visit.

- Known or suspected history of immunosuppression.

- Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or women planning to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study.
