Drug Approval
The FDA on Friday signed off on a new indication for Optinose’s nasal spray Xhance as a treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps in adults. Xhance first won FDA approval in 2017 as a treatment for nasal polyps in adults, and its drug component first won approval in 1994.
The drug-device combo product uses a proprietary delivery system with a common steroid, known as fluticasone propionate. Optinose said the approval was based on a large placebo-controlled trial that demonstrated a statistically significant reduction of symptoms in chronic sinusitis patients without nasal polyps.
