Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of omalizumab 300 mg and / or 150 mg injected subcutaneously every 4 weeks in patients with refractory CSU receiving concomitant H1 antihistamine (H1AH) therapy with respect to a reduction from baseline in the weekly itch severity score at Week 12, compared to placebo.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

    Change From Baseline (BL) in Weekly Itch Severity Score at Week 12
    End point description
    The weekly itch severity score is a component of the Urticaria Activity Score 7 (UAS7) composite score. The UAS7 is a composite score of the number of wheals (hives) and the severity of the itch. The weekly itch severity score is the sum of the daily itch severity scores over 7 days and ranges from 0 to 21. The daily itch severity score is the average of the morning and evening scores on a scale of 0 (none) to 3 (severe). The Baseline weekly itch severity score is the sum of the daily itch severity scores over the 7 days prior to the first treatment. A higher itch severity score indicates more severe itching. A negative change score from baseline indicates improvement.

    End point description
    The UAS7 is a composite score of the number of wheals (hives) and the severity of the itch. The UAS7 is determined by the sum of the daily urticaria activity scores over 7 days and ranges from 0 to 42. The daily urticaria activity score is the average of the morning and evening urticaria activity scores and ranges from 0 to 6. The urticaria activity score is the sum of ratings on a scale of 0 to 3 (0=none to 3=intense/severe) for (1) the number of wheals (hives) and (2) itch intensity over the previous 12 hours, ranges from 0 to 6, and is measured twice daily (morning and evening). The Baseline score is the sum of the daily urticaria activity scores over the 7 days prior to the first treatment. A higher urticaria activity score indicates more severe symptoms. A negative change score from baseline indicates improvement.
