Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (AE)Within 16 weeks after Week 48
The primary objective of this study was to assess the long-term safety of one-year treatment of QGE031 in adult Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) patients who completed the core study CQGE031C2201 using the following evaluations: number of participants with treatment emergent AEs of non-serious and serious nature including any events of special interest.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Having Achieved UAS7 ≤ 6Baseline, Week 52 and Week 100
The secondary objective of this study was to assess the long-term efficacy of QGE031 in adult CSU patients who completed the CQGE031C2201 study using the following evaluations: Sustained remission defined as maintaining (Urticaria Activity Score) UAS7 ≤ 6 over 48 weeks post-treatment follow up epoch among the participants achieving remission at the end of treatment epoch.
SecondaryNumber and Proportion of Participants Who Achieved UAS7≤ 6Baseline, Week 52, Week 100
Summary of subjects with UAS7 ≤ 6. The long term efficacy of one-year treatment of ligelizumab 240 mg s.c. q4w is assessed by number and proportion of participants who achieved well controlled disease (UAS7≤ 6) at end of the treatment period (Week 52) and end of follow up period (Week 100).
