Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two adjuvant therapies, cidofovir and bevacizumab, in controlling recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) after surgical resection.
  • A randomized pilot study involved five children and eleven adults with RRP, who were assigned to receive one of the treatments or a placebo following surgery, with their progress monitored over a year.
  • Results indicated that cidofovir led to a significant reduction in RRP severity, but no conclusive effectiveness was found for bevacizumab, and both treatments showed a general improvement in voice quality.

Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study was performed in a national respiratory disease referral centre.
