The investigators will investigate the efficacy of dupilumab in patients with severe eosinophilic CRSsNP who are resistant to the conventional treatment with intranasal corticosteroids and have significantly extensive disease involving more than 2 sinuses bilaterally in sinus CT scan and Lund-Mackay sinus (LMK) CT score >=10 at baseline.
The investigators will use high blood eosinophils (>=200) as a biomarker for eosinophilic CRSsNP and investigate the efficacy of dupilumab in patients with severe eosinophilic CRSsNP who are resistant to the conventional treatment with intranasal corticosteroids and have significantly extensive disease involving more than 2 sinuses bilaterally in sinus CT scan and Lund-Mackay sinus (LMK) CT score >=10 at baseline. In addition, the investigators will have a prespecified enrollment goal of at least 50% of patients with type 2 inflammatory diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and/or atopic dermatitis on the basis of patient-reported history and will stratify subject numbers between dupilumab treatment and placebo group.

|---|---|---|
| Change in participant-reported symptoms scores of sinusitis | Change in baseline in participant-reported symptoms scores of sinusitis in dupilumab group compared to control group. Morning symptoms of sinusitis will be assessed using a 0 (no symptoms) - 3 (severe symptoms) categorical scale, where a higher score indicates severe symptoms. | 24 weeks |
