New shot could stop chronic hives when antihistamines fail

NCT ID NCT06228560

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase 2 trial tested a new injectable drug called LP-003 in 202 adults with chronic spontaneous urticaria (long-lasting hives and itching) that standard antihistamines couldn't control. The study compared LP-003 to a placebo and to an existing drug (omalizumab) to see if it could completely stop wheals and itching by week 12. The goal is to find a better option for people whose hives don't respond to usual treatments.
