What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in total Urticaria Severity Score (USS)

    The USS is a questionnaire which is used to measure urticaria severity. The questionnaire is comprised on 9 questions with each question having 7 total responses on a likert-type scale. Responses to each question range from 0 to 7.

    Measured: Change from Baseline to Month 6

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of subjects restarted on Omalizumab

    Number of participants restarted on Omalizumab after coming off it at Month 4

    Measured: 8 Months

  2. Change in total Urticaria Severity Score (USS)

    Measured: Change from Baseline to Month 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vitamin D (4,000 IU/day), Vitamin D (400 IU/day) and Omalizumab in people with Urticaria, run by Selina Gierer, D.O. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in total Urticaria Severity Score (USS) (time frame: Change from Baseline to Month 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 May 2018.
