Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria Clinical Trials in Boston
Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria
Urticaria, also known as hives, is a skin condition characterized by itchy, raised, and red or white welts or bumps on the skin. These welts can range from dots to large patches and may appear anywhere on the body. Chronic spontaneous urticaria clinical trials aim to address this persistent condition. Urticaria can be acute or chronic. Acute urticaria can result from an allergic reaction to food, medications, insect bites, or other allergens. In contrast, chronic spontaneous urticaria is caused by autoimmune or idiopathic (unknown) factors.
In some cases, urticaria can be accompanied by angioedema, a condition characterized by swelling of the deeper layers of the skin and mucous membranes. MetroBoston is conducting Chronic spontaneous urticaria clinical trials in Boston to observe the safety and efficacy of new potential treatments that may help to improve the condition.
