Summary

The purpose of the core phase of the trial is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of remibrutinib (LOU064) 25 milligrams (mg) twice a day (b.i.d.) over placebo for 24 weeks and in comparison to omalizumab 300 mg every 4 weeks (q4w) for 52 weeks in participants with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines (H1-AH).

The purpose of the open-label extension phase is to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability up to two years for patients treated with remibrutinib and patients transitioned from omalizumab to remibrutinib at Week 52. In the extension phase, treatment will be with remibrutinib only (i.e., no background therapy). The extension phase will also fulfill the Novartis commitment to provide post-trial access to participants of the previous core phase.
