BACKGROUND: Solar urticaria (SU) is a rare photodermatosis. Treatment is challenging, and outcomes are often disappointing. Omalizumab is an anti-IgE, currently approved for treatment of chronic spontaneous urticaria. We sought to evaluate therapy with omalizumab in refractory SU and describe predictive factors for response.
MATERIALS/METHODS: Patients with refractory SU under treatment with omalizumab were included in this study. Clinical outcome was evaluated using the Urticaria Activity Score 7 (UAS7), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) and Pruritus Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Complete clinical response (CCR) was defined as having an UAS7 = 0, DLQI <6 and VAS = 0. Phototesting was performed and compared to baseline. We performed a PubMed search to identify reported cases of SU in adults treated with omalizumab, analysing their characteristics in order to predict response to omalizumab.
RESULTS: Eight patients were included. Median age was 45.5 years (range, 23-64). Light spectrum most commonly implicated was UV-A. Clinical outcomes: 89% (7/8) achieved CCR with omalizumab. Phototesting was normal in 42.8% (3/7) of them. In our review, we identified 38 patients (including the current case series), and 68.4% showed favourable outcomes with omalizumab. Median time since onset of SU was lower in responders.
CONCLUSIONS: Omalizumab can be an effective treatment in refractory SU.
