The VIBRANT study

Now Enrolling:
A clinical study for adults experiencing chronic
rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP)
Refer a Patient
Refer a patient

CRSwNP can significantly impair quality of life.

More research is necessary.
The VIBRANT clinical study is researching verekitug (UPB-101) in adults with CRSwNP on a background of nasal corticosteroids.
Verekitug is:

A fully human immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody

Designed to target and block human thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) signaling
TSLP is widely recognized as a key regulator of type 2 inflammation and is implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 related inflammatory disease including CRSwNP.1
VIBRANT is a Phase 2 study that is:

Randomized

Double blind

Placebo controlled
The primary objective of the VIBRANT study is to assess the effect of verekitug (UPB-101) on endoscopic nasal polyp score (NPS) compared to placebo,
as measured by change in NPS from baseline to end of study treatment (week 24).
VIBRANT is now enrolling. Your patients with CRSwNP could qualify.
