Condition: EGPA - Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis · Sponsor: University Medical Center Groningen
Rationale: Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (eGPA), eosinophilic asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) are airway diseases where eosinophils and interleukine-5 are involved in the pathogenesis. eGPA differs from the other diseases with respect to involvement of other organs. The investigators hypothesize that nasal microbiome dysbiosis with a central augmenting role for S. Aureus plays an important role in disease expression. The investigators expect that anti-interleukin-5 treatment with mepolizumab restores the changes of the nasal microbiome and immune responses to a healthy control phenotype. To study this, the nasal microbiome, the local and systemic immune response and the effect of mepolizumab treatment will be assessed.
