Comparison between chronic spontaneous urticaria and chronic induced urticaria on the efficacy of omalizumab treatment: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Dermatologic Therapy 2022 December
This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy of omalizumab in the treatment of refractory-to-antihistamines chronic induced urticaria (CIndU) in comparison with that of refractory-to-antihistamines chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). We retrieved interventional studies and observational studies on omalizumab efficacy to CIndU patients and efficacy comparison between CSU and CIndU both refractory to H1-antihistamines in electronic databases (accessed till May 2022). The odd ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated with a random-effect model in this meta-analysis. The majority of patients with different CIndU subtypes gained complete or partial response and good safety after omalizumab treatment. A total of five studies with 355 CSU patients and 103 CIndU patients were included for the meta-analysis. There was no significant difference in the efficacy of omalizumab in the treatment of CSU and CIndU (OR -0.83, 95% CI [0.84, 2.21], P > 0.05). Based on the validity of omalizumab in the treatment of various CIndU subtypes and non-differential efficacy between CSU and CIndU, it is reasonable to list omalizumab as a third-line treatment of refractory CIndU.
