They must have had CSU for at least 3 months, be on a stable dose of second-generation H1 antihistamine, and stick to their current treatment plan during the trial. People with other chronic itching diseases or who've used certain biologics recently can't participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Povorcitinib's effectiveness and safety in adults whose CSU isn't controlled by usual treatments. Participants will either receive Povorcitinib or a placebo without knowing which one they're getting to compare results fairly.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Povorcitinib may include issues related to blood clotting, heart problems, infections due to immune system suppression, allergic reactions, and potentially others not listed here.
