Can a new pill quiet stubborn chronic hives?
NCT ID NCT07764003
First seen Aug 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase II trial tests whether an experimental oral drug called TLL-018 can reduce itching and hives in adults with moderate-to-severe chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) that hasn't responded to standard antihistamines. Participants will take either a low or high dose of TLL-018 or a placebo daily for 12 weeks, while keeping a symptom diary and attending clinic visits every four weeks. The study compares changes in itch and hive severity scores to see which dose works best and how safe the drug is.
