Summary

This study looks at whether people with chronic spontaneous urticaria (long-term hives) who are well-controlled on omalizumab every 4 weeks can switch to every 6 weeks without losing control. Forty adults will be randomly assigned to continue standard dosing or extend their injection interval. The main goal is to see if disease control stays the same after 36 weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
omalizumab
What this could lead to
If successful, this could allow patients with well-controlled chronic hives to receive fewer injections while still keeping symptoms under control.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Extending the interval might lead to a return of hives in some patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * A diagnosis of CSU according to the EAACI/GA2LEN/EDF/WAO guidelines. * Age ≥ 18 years. * Omalizumab-naïve prior to initiating treatment with omalizumab. * Background treatment with four antihistamines daily. * Candidate for omalizumab treatment according to Danish guidelines. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or breastfeeding women. * Planned pregnancy within the next 6 months. * Weight ≥ 100 kilograms. * Presence of any other active skin disease or condition that may interfere with the assessment of CSU, such as atopic dermatitis, bullous pemphigoid, senile pruritus, or psoriasis. * Use of immunosuppressive drugs, such as prednisolone, azathioprine, methotrexate, or cyclosporine. * Predominantly experience symptoms from chronic inducible urticaria (CIndU). * Inability to complete study or comply with study procedures. Patients with a positive basophil histamine release assay (BHRA) are not eligible for the study. Patients may therefore be withdrawn from the trial after enrolment, if they are found to have a positive BHRA test in the initial blood work.
