ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new treatment called TLL-018 for people with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU), a condition that causes itchy hives without a known cause. The goal is to see if TLL-018 is effective and safe for adults aged 18 to 75 who have not found relief from their symptoms with standard antihistamine medications. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either TLL-018 or a placebo (a treatment that does not contain the active drug) for a set period.

To be eligible for the study, individuals must have had CSU for at least six months, still experience itching and hives despite using antihistamines, and meet specific scoring criteria for their symptoms. Participants will need to be willing to complete assessments throughout the study and follow safety guidelines, such as using effective birth control if they are women of childbearing potential. Throughout the trial, participants will have the chance to share their experiences and help researchers understand how well TLL-018 works compared to the placebo. If you or someone you know is struggling with CSU, this trial could be a valuable opportunity to explore a new treatment option.
