Outcomes after switching, particularly patient-reported measures, remain poorly characterized. We aimed to identify predictors and outcomes of biologic switching in adults with CRSwNP.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We retrospectively reviewed adults initiating biologics for CRSwNP between 2009 and 2025 at a tertiary center. Demographic, clinical, radiographic, histopathologic, and Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) data were collected.

All patients were diagnosed with CRSwNP, which was the primary indication in 61%. Baseline demographics were comparable between groups. Switching was more common with omalizumab (39%) and mepolizumab (40%) than dupilumab (5%) (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.01). Most from omalizumab or mepolizumab transitioned to dupilumab for inadequate CRSwNP control (42% and 50%), whereas dupilumab was typically discontinued due to adverse effects (39%). Compared with nonswitchers, switchers more often exhibited radiologic air-fluid levels (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.01), asthma (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.01), aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.01), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.04). Baseline SNOT-22 scores were similar (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.20), but higher for switchers at 6 months (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u2009.01). After switching, 70.6% of patients improved, with a mean SNOT-22 reduction of 9.4 points (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.02), approaching outcomes of nonswitchers.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients who switch biologics for CRSwNP typically transition to dupilumab due to inadequate symptom control.
