Chronic urticaria

This study tested whether analyzing a patient's DNA and RNA could help doctors pick the right drug for inflammatory diseases that don't fit standard categories. 32 adults with at least two affected organs (including skin) received one of six targeted therapies based on their mole…

This phase 2a trial tested an oral drug called EVO756 in 30 adults with chronic inducible urticaria, a condition where physical triggers like scratching or cold cause hives. The study aimed to see if the drug is safe and can reduce wheals. Results are not yet available.

This Phase 2 study tested a drug called barzolvolimab (CDX-0159) in 196 adults with chronic inducible urticaria—hives triggered by cold or scratching—that persist despite antihistamines. Participants received either the drug or a placebo as a shot under the skin. The main goal wa…

This completed Phase 3 trial tested whether TEV-45779, a biosimilar of the drug omalizumab (XOLAIR), works as well as the original for people with chronic hives that don't improve with antihistamines. 608 participants received either the biosimilar or XOLAIR. The main goal was to…

This study looked at how well a new, quick finger-prick test (LumiraDx CRP) measures CRP levels compared to a standard lab test. CRP is a marker of infection, inflammation, or tissue injury. 79 adults with symptoms of these conditions took part. The goal was to see if the new tes…

This early study tested a new radioactive tracer called 18F-FDS in 16 people with suspected bacterial or fungal infections. The tracer is designed to light up infection sites on PET/CT scans, helping doctors see exactly where an infection is. The goal was to check how the tracer …

This study tested a daily tablet called NatureU Histra Disslove in 19 adults with chronic hives. Participants took one tablet before a main meal for 28 days. The study measured how well the tablet controlled hives, reduced symptoms, and improved quality of life. Results showed ch…

This completed study looked at how the social networks of caregivers affect their stress and health when caring for someone with an inherited disease. Researchers surveyed over 680 participants, including family members and formal caregivers, to understand caregiving burden and s…

This study examined how the drug omalizumab is prescribed in real-world practice for adults with chronic urticaria (long-term hives) in China. Researchers analyzed electronic health records from over 3,400 patients to see what doses were commonly used. The goal was to understand …

This study tested an artificial intelligence algorithm designed to help primary care doctors decide whether a patient with a skin condition really needs to see a dermatologist. Researchers enrolled 200 adults with skin problems and had their doctors take photos of the affected ar…

This study looked at how often doctors increase the dose or give Xolair more frequently for people with chronic hives. Researchers followed 163 adults for 3 months to see how many needed a stronger treatment plan. The goal was to understand real-world use, not to test a new drug.

This completed study took blood samples from 10 people with chronic spontaneous urticaria (long-lasting hives) to check for viral particles. The goal was to see if hidden viruses might be involved in causing the condition. Because it is a small observational study, it can only su…
