About this trial

A Prospective Clinical Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Bacterial Lysate (OM-85) Combined with Antihistamines in the Treatment of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU): A Single-Centre, Observational, Cohort Study

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

The participants were fully informed of the purpose, procedure and risks of the study and voluntarily signed the informed consent form.

Aged 18 to 65 (inclusive), no gender restrictions.

Meets the CSU diagnostic criteria, with a disease duration of ≥6 weeks.

Antihistamine resistance: Regular use of a standard dose (as recommended in the package leaflet) of a second-generation H1 antihistamine (e.g. desloratadine 5 mg, levocetirizine 5 mg, etc.) for at least 2 weeks prior to screening, but with symptoms still not effectively controlled. Defined as: a UAS7 score of ≥7 within 7 days prior to the screening visit (V1) and baseline visit (V2).

Disqualifiers

Special types of urticaria: These primarily include physical urticaria (such as artificial urticaria, cold contact urticaria and cholinergic urticaria), urticarial vasculitis, and angioedema caused by hereditary or acquired C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency;

Systemic use of glucocorticoids (oral or injectable) within the four weeks prior to screening;

Exclude patients who have used immunosuppressants (such as cyclosporine, methotrexate, or Tripterygium wilfordii) within the previous four weeks;

Exclude patients who have used biologics (such as omazulimab, dupilumab, etc.) within the previous three months;

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

UAS7 score at week 12 of treatment (90 days)

Assessed using the 7-day Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7),score is calculated between 0 (best score possible) and 42 (worstscore possible), compared with baseline

Time frame
From baseline to weeks 4, 8, and 12

Secondary outcomes

1

Proportion of subjects with UAS7 ≤ 6 at week 12 of treatment (disease well controlled)

Assessed using the 7-day Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7),score is calculated between 0 (best score possible) and 42 (worstscore possible)

Time frame
Week 12 (90 days)
2

Changes in the CU-Q2oL score

Assessed using the Chronic Urticaria Quality of Life Questionnaire (CU-Q2oL),score is calculated between 0 (best score possible) and 92 (worst score possible)

Time frame
From baseline to week 12
3

Proportion of subjects with UCT ≥ 12 at week 12 of treatment

Assessment using the Urticaria Control Test (UCT), score is calculated between 0 (worst score possible) and 16 (best score possible). A UCT score of 12 or higher indicates that chronic urticaria is well controlled

Time frame
From baseline to weeks 4, 8, and 12
