Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Disease control rate during the last week of treatment (i.e., proportion of patients with urticaria activity score for 7d(UAS7,range 0-42) < 7 for 7 consecutive days after the last injection)through study completion, an average of 1 year

The Urticaria Activity Score (UAS) is a composite, diary-recorded score with numeric severity intensity ratings (0=none to 3=intense/severe) for the number of wheals (hives) and the intensity of the pruritus (itch) . The daily UAS is calculated as the average of the morning and evening scores. The urticaria activity score for 7d (UAS7) is the weekly sum of the daily UAS, which is the composite score of the intensity of pruritus and the number of wheals. UAS7 scores ranged from 0 to 42. If UAS7 score is less than 7, it indicates disease control.

A minimum of 4 out of 7 daily scores were needed to calculate the UAS7 values. Otherwise, the weekly score was missing for that week.

The primary outcome measure was disease control rate in the last week of treatment. Chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Based on the analysis for the main full analysis set (FAS), based on the analysis of the per protocol set(PPS) for supporting analysis.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time when UAS7 (range 0-42) <7 for the first timeup to 5 weeks

The Urticaria Activity Score (UAS) is a composite, diary-recorded score with numeric severity intensity ratings (0=none to 3=intense/severe) for the number of wheals (hives) and the intensity of the pruritus (itch) . The daily UAS is calculated as the average of the morning and evening scores. The UAS7 is the weekly sum of the daily UAS, which is the composite score of the intensity of pruritus and the number of wheals. UAS7 scores ranged from 0 to 42. A higher UAS7 indicated greater urticaria disease activity.If UAS7 score is less than 7, it indicates disease control.

Changes in UAS7 scores(range 0-42) after each dose compared with baselineup to 5 weeks

The Urticaria Activity Score (UAS) is a composite, diary-recorded score with numeric severity intensity ratings (0=none to 3=intense/severe) for the number of wheals (hives) and the intensity of the pruritus (itch) . The daily UAS is calculated as the average of the morning and evening scores. The UAS7 is the weekly sum of the daily UAS, which is the composite score of the intensity of pruritus and the number of wheals. UAS7 scores ranged from 0 to 42. A higher UAS7 indicated greater urticaria disease activity.If UAS7 score is less than 7, it indicates disease control.

Change in chronic urticaria quality of life questionnaire (CU-Q2oL) score from baselineup to 5 weeks

The Chronic Urticaria Quality of Life Questionnaire(CU-Q2oL) contains 23 items to assess the impairment of health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) in the past 2 weeks from pruritus, swelling, effect on daily activities, sleep problems, limitation and appearance. The scores of 23 items were added and linearly transformed to a total score of 0-100 CU⁃Q2oL can not only use the total score of the questionnaire to represent the overall damage of HR⁃QoL, but also use the score of one aspect (dimension) to represent the damage of specific HR⁃QoL. The higher the score, the more severe the impact of CSU on the patient.

Proportion of patients who responded to treatment as assessed by UCT scoreup to 5 weeks

The urticaria control test (UCT) is a recently validated tool for disease control assessment in patients with CSU.Disease control over the past 4 weeks was evaluated retrospectively. The assessment included: ①the occurrence of urticaria symptoms (such as itching, wheals, etc.); ②the impact of quality of life; ③the frequency of symptoms was not sufficiently controlled by the treatment; ④overall disease control status. The score of each item ranged from 0 to 4, and the total score was the sum of the scores of the four questions.A score of 0 indicates that the disease is not under control at all, and a score of 16 indicates that it is under complete control. A total score ≥12 indicated well-controlled urticaria, and a score \< 12 indicated poorly controlled urticaria.When UCT increased by ≥ 3 points, the current treatment regimen was effective.
