New pill for chronic hives and skin disease tested – but study halted early
NCT ID NCT06555328
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested an oral drug called INF904 in people with moderate to severe chronic spontaneous urticaria (long-term hives) or hidradenitis suppurativa (a painful skin condition). The trial was open-label and lasted 28 days of treatment plus follow-up. It aimed to check safety and how the drug moves through the body. However, the study was terminated early, so full results are not available.
