Outcomes of using omalizumab for more than 1 year in refractory chronic urticaria

This study from the United States suggests that omalizumab is effective and safe in patients with refractory CU who use omalizumab for longer than 1 year. Periodic attempts at weaning patients with CU from omalizumab should be attempted because there could be a chance of spontaneous remission. This might be difficult because symptoms are likely to recur, but restarting omalizumab in these patients seems effective and safe.
