About this trial

This is a US, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, Phase 3b study to evaluate efficacy of remibrutinib (25 mg twice daily \[b.i.d.\] by mouth \[p.o.\]) compared to dupilumab (600 mg loading dose administered subcutaneously (s.c.) followed by 300 mg every 2 weeks s.c.) at early timepoints (4 weeks and earlier), when administered as an add-on treatment to second generation H1-antihistamines (sgH1-AH) (standard label dose as background therapy) in adult US participants with moderate to severe chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) inadequately controlled by sgH1-AHs.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Adults ≥ 18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent

CSU duration for ≥ 6 months prior to screening (defined as the onset of CSU determined by the Investigator based on all available supporting documentation)

UAS7 score (range, 0-42) ≥ 16, and

ISS7 score (range, 0-21) ≥ 6, and

Disqualifiers

Previous use of remibrutinib or other bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors

Previous use of dupilumab

Evidence of clinically significant cardiovascular (such as but not limited to myocardial infarction, unstable ischemic heart disease, NYHA Class III/IV left ventricular failure, arrhythmia and uncontrolled hypertension within 12 months prior to Visit 1), neurological, psychiatric, pulmonary, renal, hepatic (past history or current), endocrine or metabolic disorder, or immunodeficiency that, in the investigator's opinion, would compromise the safety of the participant, interfere with the interpretation of the study results or otherwise preclude participation or protocol adherence of the participant.

Evidence of hematological disorders (including coagulation disorders or significant bleeding risk)
