Abstract
OBJECTIVE NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD) is characterized by exacerbation of respiratory symptoms after NSAID intake. While research for specific treatment options continues in patients who cannot tolerate or are unresponsive to aspirin treatment after aspirin desensitization (ATAD), biologicals have emerged as a new therapeutic option in NERD patients. The aim of this study was to compare the quality of life, and the sinonasal and respiratory outcomes of NERD patients treated with ATAD or biologicals. METHODS Patients who have been followed up at a tertiary care allergy center and who have been receiving at least one of ATAD, mepolizumab or omalizumab for at least six months were included. Evaluations were made using sinonasal outcome test (SNOT-22), asthma control test (ACT), short form-36 (SF-36), blood eosinophil counts, need for recurrent functional endoscopic sinus surgeries (FESS), and asthma or rhinitis exacerbations requiring oral corticosteroids (OCS). RESULTS A total of 59 patients comprised of 35 (59%) females and 24 (41%) males with a mean age of 46.1 (min-max, 20-70) years were included. The baseline blood eosinophil count was higher, and a significant decrease in blood eosinophil counts was observed in the mepolizumab group compared to ATAD group (p = 0.001, p < 0.001, respectively). At follow-up, the rate of recurrent FESS was lower in the group that received mepolizumab (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS In NERD patients, mepolizumab significantly decreased blood eosinophil counts and recurrent FESS. There was no significant difference between the patients receiving ATAD or mepolizumab regarding other clinical parameters.

Abstract
Background: Aspirin treatment after desensitization (ATAD) is effective in preventing nasal polyps recurrence as well as respiratory symptoms in patients with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-exacerbated respiratory diseases (N-ERD). However, there is no consensus on effective daily maintenance doses in ATAD. Therefore, we aimed to compare the effects of two different maintenance doses of aspirin on clinical outcomes for 1-3 years of ATAD. Methods: This was a retrospective, multicenter study that involved four tertiary centers. The maintenance doses of daily aspirin were 300 mg in one center and 600 mg in the remaining three. The data of patients who were on ATAD for 1-3 years were included. Study outcomes (nasal surgeries, sinusitis, asthma attacks, hospitalization, oral corticosteroid use, and medication uses) were assessed in a standardized way and recorded from case files. Results: The study initially included 125 subjects, 38 and 87 were receiving 300 and 600 mg daily aspirin for ATAD, respectively. Number of nasal polyp surgeries decreased after 1 -3 years compared with before ATAD in both groups (group 1, baseline: 0.44 ± 0.07 versus first year: 0.08 ± 0.05; p < 0.001 and baseline: 0.44 ± 0.07 versus 3rd year: 0.01 ± 0.01; p < 0.001; and group 2, baseline 0.42 ± 0.03 versus first year: 0.02 ± 0.02; p < 0.001 and baseline: 0.42 ± 0.03 versus 3rd year: 0.07 ± 0.03; p < 0.001). Conclusion: Given the comparable effects of 300 mg and 600 mg aspirin daily as maintenance treatment of ATAD on both asthma and sinonasal outcomes in N-ERD, our results suggest using 300 mg of aspirin daily in ATAD owing to its better safety profile.

Abstract
Introduction: Aspirin desensitization (AD) is effective in relieving asthma and sinonasal outcomes in patients with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD). So far, only a limited number of studies evaluated the effect of AD prospectively in a controlled manner in N-ERD. It is also a current approach to recommend endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) before AD. This study aimed to prospectively document the clinical effects of AD for 1 year in patients with N-ERD who underwent ESS in the presence of a control group.Methods: The study included patients with N-ERD who underwent AD (group 1, n = 22) and patients with N-ERD in whom desensitization was indicated but was not performed (group 2, n = 21). All patients had ESS before enrolment in the study. Asthma and rhinosinusitis outcomes were assessed at baseline and after 1 year.Results: The study included a total of 43 subjects (F/M:28/15, mean age: 44.7 ± 2.8 years). Fewer patients had nasal polyp recurrency in group 1 (5/22, 22.7%) than in group 2 (11/21, 52.3%) at the end of the first year (p = 0.035). Smell-test scores were preserved only in group 1 after 1 year. There were significant decreases in the use of both asthma and nasal medications only in group 1.Conclusion: Our results strongly support the use of AD for the improvement of both nasal and asthmatic outcomes in patients with N-ERD for 1 year. We also recommend patients undergo ESS before AD. Further controlled studies are necessary to evaluate whether this effect lasts longer.

Abstract
Background Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD) might benefit from aspirin desensitization (AD) as an alternative treatment to standard care. However, there is conflicting evidence regarding its role in bronchial symptoms and asthma exacerbations. Objective To analyze the clinical effects of AD in terms of lung function, systemic and inhaled steroid use, the frequency of acute asthma exacerbations, and adverse effects in patients with NERD and asthma. Methodology We identified randomized clinical trials (RCTs) from PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and EBSCO. We also searched the RCT references for additional studies. Studies comparing AD to placebo in patients with a previous history of pulmonary symptoms triggered by ASA or other NSAIDs or with a positive provocation test to ASA were included. Primary results Five studies with 210 participants with NERD were included in this review. The study duration ranged from 3 to 6 months. Overall, the risk of bias across the included RCTs was low. We identified 3 studies evaluating lung function, 2 of which reported a significant improvement in FEV1 in the AD group after 6 months, while the other reported no difference among the treatments. Due to high heterogeneity, we did not pool the results. The remaining primary outcomes were reported only in a single study each, hindering their interpretation. Secondary outcomes revealed reduced symptom and medication scores in patients with AD. Conclusions Due to the small number of studies included in this systematic review, conclusions should be made with caution. AD shows a trend towards improving lung function (FEV1) following 6 months of treatment, although no conclusions can be made regarding the use of corticosteroids or the frequency of acute exacerbations. AD appears to reduce both symptom and medication scores. Additional RCTs are needed to fully assess the efficacy of AD in reducing bronchial symptoms in patients with NERD.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is characterized by the clinical triad of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, asthma, and an intolerance to medications that inhibit the cycloxgenase-1 enzyme. Patients with AERD on average have more severe respiratory disease compared with patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and/or asthma alone. Although patients with AERD traditionally develop significant upper and lower respiratory tract symptoms on ingestion of cycloxgenase-1 inhibitors, most of these same patients report clinical benefit when desensitized to aspirin and maintained on daily aspirin therapy. This Work Group Report provides a comprehensive review of aspirin challenges, aspirin desensitizations, and maintenance aspirin therapy in patients with AERD. Identification of appropriate candidates, indications and contraindications, medical and surgical optimization strategies, protocols, medical management during the desensitization, and recommendations for maintenance aspirin therapy following desensitization are reviewed. Also included is a summary of studies evaluating the clinical efficacy of aspirin therapy after desensitization as well as a discussion on the possible cellular and molecular mechanisms explaining how this therapy provides unique benefit to patients with AERD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) is one of the most frequently prescribed medications in the medical field, and hypersensitivity to NSAID is a common adverse drug reaction encountered. However, NSAID hypersensitivity presents a variety of symptoms caused by diverse pharmacological and immunological mechanisms. RECENT FINDINGS Owing to the heterogeneity of the disease, a new concept for the classification of NSAID hypersensitivity has recently been proposed to diagnose and manage NSAID hypersensitivity for personalized treatment. Acute and delayed reactions were distinguished in this classification, and identification of symptoms and speculation of putative mechanisms help physicians make the right diagnosis. NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease is a noticeable phenotype of NSAID hypersensitivity that involves upper airway comorbidities (chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps) as well as asthmatic features. The cutaneous phenotypes of NSAID hypersensitivity occur, and cross-reactivity with other types of NSAID should be considered in establishing a proper diagnosis. Hypersensitivity to a single NSAID can present urticaria/angioedema and anaphylaxis, in which an IgE-mediated immune response is suggested to be a prime mechanism. Management of NSAID hypersensitivity reactions includes avoidance, pharmacological treatment following standard guidelines, and aspirin desensitization. SUMMARY The classification, diagnosis, and management of NSAID hypersensitivity should be individually reached by identifying its phenotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) represents an aggressive form of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis that is notoriously challenging to treat. There is evidence to suggest desensitization to aspirin may improve symptomatology and disease control in these patients. The goal of our study was to critically appraise the literature on this topic and assess the effect of desensitization on sinonasal symptomatology. METHODS We searched EMBASE, CINAHL, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library for relevant literature. Studies were included if they were observational studies or randomized, controlled trials, had n > 1, and were published in English or French. Studies were excluded if they were systematic reviews. We assessed study for quality and presence of common sources of bias. RESULTS Twenty-four studies met the inclusion criteria. In general, polyp size, polyp recurrence, nasal symptom scores, sense of smell, number of acute rhinosinusitis episodes, and systemic steroid use improved when patients were desensitized. The vast majority of studies recommend desensitization. CONCLUSION There is mounting evidence that aspirin desensitization is a valuable adjunct to treat sinonasal symptoms in the treatment of patients who have AERD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aspirin desensitization (AD) is an effective and safe therapeutic option for patients with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)-exacerbated respiratory disease (N-ERD). The mechanisms driving its beneficial effects remain poorly understood. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of long-term AD on clinical, biochemical and radiological changes in N-ERD patients. METHODS The study group consisted of twenty-three individuals with N-ERD who underwent AD, followed by ingestion of 325 mg aspirin twice daily. Twenty patients completed the 52 weeks of AD. The following evaluations were conducted at baseline and in the 52nd week of AD: (i) clinical: asthma exacerbations, Asthma Control Test (ACT), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for the assessment of nasal symptoms; (ii) blood and induced sputum supernatant (ISS) periostin, (iii) phenotypes based on induced sputum (IS) cells, (iiii) ISS and nasal lavage (NL) concentration of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), tetranor-PGD-M, tetranor-PGE-M, 8-iso-PGE2, leukotriene B4 (LTB4), LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4, and urine LTE4. RESULTS A significant improvement was observed in ACT (P = 0.02) and VAS score (P = 0.008) in the 52nd week of AD. ISS periostin and IS eosinophil count decreased significantly in the 52nd week of AD (P = 0.04 and P = 0.01, respectively). ISS and NL eicosanoid concentrations did not change following long-term AD. CONCLUSION and Clinical Relevance: AD is associated with a decrease in sputum periostin biosynthesis, which may prevent the recruitment of eosinophils into respiratory tissue and be one of explanation of the clinical benefits of AD. Long-term aspirin administration does not lead to an imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory ISS eicosanoids.

Abstract
Samter’s triad (ST) is a well-known disease characterized by the triad of bronchial asthma, nasal polyps, and aspirin intolerance. Over the past few years, a rapid development in the knowledge of the pathogenesis and clinical characteristics of ST has happened. The aim of this paper is to review the recent investigations on the pathophysiological mechanisms and genetic background, diagnosis, and different therapeutic options of ST to advance our understanding of the mechanism and the therapeutic control of ST. As concern for ST increase, more application of aspirin desensitization will be required to manage this disease successfully. There is also a need for continued research efforts in pathophysiology, treatment, and possible prevention.

Abstract
Aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are some of the most common culprits of drug-induced hypersensitivity reactions, and can lead to a wide array of adverse effects. The accurate and timely diagnosis of aspirin and NSAID-induced hypersensitivity reactions is important for both patient safety and for the initiation of appropriate disease-specific management and treatment. Because there are no reliably validated in vitro tests available, aspirin and NSAID challenges are considered to be the criterion standard for the diagnosis of these hypersensitivity reactions, though in some patients the diagnosis can be made on the basis of a clear clinical history.

Abstract
The clinical efficacy of aspirin treatment after desensitization in patients with respiratory disease exacerbated by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs has been documented in observational studies and in double-blind placebo-controlled trials. There is no general agreement with regard to the optimal maintenance dose or duration of treatment with acetylsalicylic acid after desensitization, thus further studies are necessary to offer clear guidelines to clinicians. This article summarizes data from noncontrolled, active-control, and placebo-controlled trials assessing clinical effectiveness and reporting on safety of treatment with acetylsalicylic acid in desensitized patients with respiratory disease exacerbated by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) represents a recalcitrant form of sinonasal inflammation for which a multidisciplinary consensus on patient management has not been reached. Several medical interventions have been investigated, but a formal comprehensive evaluation of the evidence has never been performed. The purpose of this article is to provide an evidence-based approach for the multidisciplinary management of CRS in AERD. METHODS A systematic review of the literature was performed and the guidelines for development of an evidence-based review with recommendations were followed. Study inclusion criteria included: adult population >18 years old; CRS based on published diagnostic criteria, and a presumptive diagnosis of AERD. We focused on reporting higher-quality studies (level 2 or higher) when available, but reported lower-quality studies if the topic contained insufficient evidence. Treatment recommendations were based on American Academy of Otolaryngology (AAO) guidelines, with defined grades of evidence and evaluation of research quality and risk/benefits associated with each treatment. RESULTS This review identified and evaluated the literature on 3 treatment strategies for CRS in AERD: dietary salicylate avoidance, leukotriene modification, and desensitization with daily aspirin therapy. CONCLUSION Based on the available evidence, dietary salicylate avoidance and leukotriene-modifying drugs are options following appropriate treatment with nasal corticosteroids and saline irrigation. Desensitization with daily aspirin therapy is recommended following revision endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) take first or second place as the cause of drug-induced hypersensitivity reactions. The oral provocation test (OPT) is a gold standard for the diagnosis of NSAID hypersensitivity. We investigated which analgesics patients took after a negative OPT and determined the proportion of patients that experienced a hypersensitivity reaction despite a negative OPT. METHODS We selected 115 patients (67.8% female, age 54.9 ± 16.7 years) with a negative aspirin OPT and a convincing history of immediate hypersensitivity to aspirin or NSAIDs. In a telephone survey, we identified the analgesics taken after the OPT and possible adverse events. RESULTS The mean follow-up time was 5.1 ± 2.0 years. All subjects needed at least one analgesic drug. Despite the negative outcome of the aspirin OPT, only 33.9% of subjects took aspirin and 0.9% had a hypersensitivity reaction. The negative predictive value (NPV) of the aspirin OPT was 97.4%. Overall, 16 (13.9%) subjects experienced a hypersensitivity reaction, 12 of which occurred after taking a drug not tested with the OPT. The NPV of the OPT for all NSAIDs was 96.4%. CONCLUSIONS Our results support the available data that most subjects do not re-take the tested drug regardless of the high NPV of the OPT.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated diseases are important examples of drug hypersensitivities and include aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), aspirin- or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced urticaria/angioedema, and aspirin- or NSAID-induced anaphylaxis. While each disease subtype may be distinguished by unique clinical features, the underlying mechanisms that contribute to these phenotypes are not fully understood. However, the inhibition of the cyclooxygenase-1 enzyme is thought to play a significant role. Additionally, eosinophils, mast cells, and their products, prostaglandins and leukotrienes, have been identified in the pathogenesis of AERD. Current diagnostic and treatment strategies for aspirin-exacerbated diseases remain limited, and continued research focusing on each of the unique hypersensitivity reactions to aspirin is essential. This will not only advance the understanding of these disease processes, but also lead to the subsequent development of novel therapeutics that patients who suffer from aspirin-induced reactions desperately need.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A differential diagnosis of persistent chronic rhinosinusitis is ASA-intolerance syndrome (AIS), also known as Aspirin®‑exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), Samter-Trias (Samter's disease, Morbus Widal). Particularly in cases of frequent recurrency of nasal polyps in combination with bronchial asthma and hypersensitivity reactions to acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAR) can often be referred to an underlying AIS. The pathogenesis of this syndrome is attributed to a misallocation of the arachidonic acid metabolism, resulting in an increased leukotriene production. METHODS The diagnosis may be difficult in the early stages of the disease with incomplete triad of symptoms. RESULTS Therapy may consist of paranasal sinuses surgery, drug therapy and adaptive deactivation as the only causal treatment option for patients with AIS. CONCLUSION For adaptive desactivation, positive effects were actually shown even in patients with long-term recurrent or persistent complaints of chronic rhinosinusitis.

Abstract
Aspirin exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is characterized as adult onset asthma, nasal polyps, chronic rhinosinusitis, and hypersensitivity to a cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibitor, viz aspirin or nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The method for diagnosing AERD is with aspirin challenge, and treatment includes aspirin desensitization followed by continued daily aspirin. Although oral challenge has been the mainstay in the United States, lysyl-aspirin has been validated as a diagnostic tool for aspirin-sensitive asthma and will be discussed further in this article. The challenges with aspirin therapy surrounding endoscopy and perioperative aspirin therapy will be discussed. Additionally, daily aspirin therapy is not for everyone. Aspirin is relatively contraindicated in those with a history of gastrointestinal bleed and an absolute contraindication in pregnancy. Aspirin desensitization and subsequent treatment has been shown to be highly effective for AERD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review updates the status of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) in the contexts of epidemiology, diagnosis, pathogenesis, and treatment. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies have shown that prostaglandin E₂ (PGE₂) deficiency induces an AERD phenotype in PGE₂ synthase-1 knock-out mice and also PGE₂ resistance in granulocytes of AERD patients. The numbers of platelet-adherent leukocytes increase in AERD patients, enhancing production of cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) via transcellular metabolism of arachidonate. INF-γ released from eosinophils of the sinus tissue of AERD patients promotes eosinophil maturation, increases leukotriene-associated gene expression, and releases CysLTs. The serum periostin level has been suggested to be a useful biomarker predicting the AERD/CRSwNP phenotype. Aspirin desensitization was reported to decrease the levels of CD4⁺ T cell-derived cytokines, including INF-γ and IL-10, in line with the newly defined role of INF-γ in AERD. SUMMARY Recent findings further support the notion that arachidonic acid metabolism is dysregulated in AERD patients. This is reflected by resistance to PGE₂, overproduction of CysLTs by enhanced numbers of platelet-adherent leukocytes, and cellular stimulation by INF-γ released from eosinophils. Aspirin desensitization may be a useful treatment option in AERD patients exhibiting recalcitrant CRSwNP.

Abstract
This study is aimed at investigating the association of HLA-DRB1, HLA-DQA1, and HLA-DQB1 variability with the response to aspirin desensitization (AD). A total of 16 patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory diseases (AERD, 81.3% were female) with median age of 29 ± 4.3 years were included in this study. Following 6 months, Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22), medication, symptom scores, and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) (all p < 0.001) improved significantly. However, only seven patients (43.7%) had clinically significant improvement in all of the medication and symptom scores and FEV1, who were considered responders to AD. Responders to AD had significantly higher symptom scores compared with non-responders at baseline (20 ± 1.18 vs 10 ± 1.27; p = 0.003). HLADQB1*0302 was significantly lower in non-responders than in responders to AD (0.12 [0.02-0.76]; p = 0.022). Sensitivity and specificity of HLA-DQB1*0302 to predict response to AD was 71.4% (95% CI: 35.8-91.7) and 81.8% (95% CI: 52.3-94.8). This study introduces HLA-DQB1*0302 as a genetic marker for favorable response to AD.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is a clinical condition which results in adverse upper and lower respiratory symptoms, particularly rhinitis, conjunctivitis, bronchospasm, and/or laryngospasm, following exposure to cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibiting drugs, namely aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). A provocative aspirin challenge is the gold standard for diagnosis of AERD. Aspirin desensitization and continuous aspirin therapy has been highly efficacious in those patients with suboptimal control of their disease on current available pharmacotherapy or those with other underlying conditions (i.e., cardiovascular disease) who may require frequent treatment with aspirin or NSAIDs. This review article focuses on aspirin desensitization and the management of patients with AERD with a particular emphasis on outcomes in those patients with chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis.

Abstract
The effect of aspirin desensitization (AD) on immunologic profile of patients with AERD has been poorly understood. This study is aimed at investigating the effect of AD on clinical and immunological markers of patients with AERD. This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial comprised 34 adult patients (67.6% female) with chronic rhinosinusitis, nasal polyps, and aspirin-intolerant asthma. The active group underwent AD over a 2-day period with increasing doses of aspirin (60, 125, 325, and 625 mg), followed by receiving aspirin 625 mg twice daily for 6 months. Symptom scores and medication needs of patients with AERD who have undergone AD were significantly lower compared to the placebo group after 6 months (7.5 ± 3.5 vs. 10.6 ± 3.8 and 9.3 ± 2.0 vs. 11.0 ± 3.1, respectively, all p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was observed in serum concentration of IL-10, IFN-γ, and TGF-β between two groups neither at baseline nor at the end of study.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis patients with nasal polyps can be aspirin sensitive or aspirin tolerant. The majority belong to the latter group. They tolerate intake of aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, whereas aspirin-sensitive patients have an adverse reaction (asthma, rhinitis and/or urticaria). Diagnosis of aspirin sensitivity is important for the patient, but is rarely undertaken in routine ENT or respiratory medicine practice. Treatment of nasal polyps is by a combination of medical therapy and surgery. Oral and topical steroids form the mainstay of medical therapy, which is aimed at reducing inflammation and symptom improvement. Surgery helps with polyps causing severe nasal obstruction. Despite these therapies, recurrences are common in aspirin sensitive patients. Any adjunctive therapy to prevent or prolong recurrence would be welcome. One such possibility is topical nasal lysine-aspirin. This is an area under current debate and this non-systematic review aims to provide evidence of its use, to date, in aspirin sensitive and aspirin tolerant nasal polyp patients.
