  • Optinose Inc OPTN announced the results of pre-planned analyses from the ReOpen trial program evaluating XHANCE for chronic sinusitis. 
  • XHANCE (fluticasone propionate) nasal spray is a drug-device combination product that delivers high and deep in nasal passages with an anti-inflammatory drug. 
  • These analyses of pooled data from the ReOpen1 and ReOpen2 trials found that over 24 weeks of follow-up, patients using XHANCE two sprays per nostril (372 mcg) twice daily had a 66% reduction in the number of disease exacerbations compared to patients receiving a placebo comparator.

  • The program was generally consistent with its currently labeled safety profile.
  • Price Action: OPTN shares are up 2.07% at $3.71 during the market session on the last check Wednesday.
