New injection tested to tame Teenagers' unexplained hives

NCT ID NCT03437278

Summary

This study tested an injectable drug called ligelizumab to see if it could better control chronic, unexplained hives in teenagers. It involved 49 adolescents aged 12 to 18 who still had bothersome hives despite taking standard allergy pills. Participants received either a high dose, a low dose, or a placebo injection every four weeks for 24 weeks to compare how well the different doses reduced hive and itch symptoms.
