Summary

By hypothesising that Interstitial Cystitis is an allergic disorder of the urogenital system that is linked to mast-cells, current therapy with omalizumab may represent a potential non symptomatic strategy for the treatment of IC/BPS

Conditions

  • Interstitial Cystitis
  • Painful Bladder Syndrome

Interventions

DRUG

omalizumab

The omalizumab dose has been calculated on the basis of body weight and basal levels of total serum IgE. Treatment was administered subcutaneously every 2 or 4 weeks (according to the calculated total dose) for a total of 48 weeks. Each vial contained 150 mg of the active compound, therefore the number of injections for each administration varied between 1 and 3, depending on the total dose used.
