Change From Baseline in the Urticaria Activity Score Over 7 Days (UAS7) at Week 12
Baseline; Week 12

The UAS7 is defined as the 7-day sum of the individual, daily recorded scores for the hive severity score (HSS) and the itch severity score (ISS). The ISS7 is defined as the 7-day sum of the daily ISS scores (ranging from 0 to 3), and the HSS7 is defined as the 7-day sum of the daily HSS scores (ranging from 0 to 3). The UAS7 score is calculated as the sum of the available UAS scores, divided by the number of days that have a UAS score, multiplied by 7. The UAS7 (ranging from 0 to 42) is equal to the ISS7 (ranging from 0 to 21) plus the HSS7 (ranging from 0 to 21). Higher scores represent more intense/severe hives and itching. Change from baseline was calculated as the post-baseline value minus the baseline value.
