Utility of serum biomarkers in real-world practice for predicting response to omalizumab therapy in patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria.
J Allergy Clin Immunol Glob
February 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Background: Omalizumab (OMA), a recombinant humanized IgG monoclonal anti-IgE antibody, is approved for treatment for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) refractory to second-generation H-antihistamine (SGAH) therapy. However, currently, there are no validated serum biomarkers to reliably predict response to OMA treatment.
Objective: We explored the real-world clinical utility of using serum biomarkers for predicting response to OMA for CSU patients with disease refractory to high-dose SGAH therapy.

Objectives: Chitosan is widely used in medicine to regulate immune responses in T cells and dendritic cells. However, research on the regulation of mast cells (MCs) is scarce. Mas-related G-protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is a key receptor that mediates MC activation.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor endangering women's life and health. Tamoxifen citrate (TAM) is the first-line drug of adjuvant endocrine therapy for estrogen receptor-positive (ER) breast cancer patients. Some sporadic cases have described rare adverse reactions of TAM with potentially life-threatening dermatological manifestations, which were associated with skin allergy.

Objective: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a challenging condition that significantly impacts the affected patients. This study aimed to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) among patients with CSU in Vietnam and identify factors associated with QoL.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Vietnam National Dermatology and Venereology Hospital from June 2023 to March 2024.

Upon stimulation and activation, mast cells (MCs) release soluble mediators, including histamine, proteases, and cytokines. These mediators are often stored within cytoplasmic granules in MCs and may be released in a granulated form. The secretion of cytokines and chemokines occurs within hours following activation, with the potential to result in chronic inflammation.
