Study of Remibrutinib (LOU064) Efficacy and Safety and Exploration of Its Mechanism of Action in Participants With Chronic Urticaria

Exclusion criteria

• . Participants who have a familial/hereditary form (e.g. familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, familial cold urticaria) of the target CINDU that is being considered for the participant's inclusion in this study.
• . Diseases, other than CSU or CINDU, with urticaria or angioedema symptoms including but not limited to:
• . CINDU patients only: To prevent any confounding effect of CSU symptoms, the CINDU study population will consist of participants with predominant CINDU and should not have a significant share of CSU symptoms (that might make the assessment of CINDU symptoms difficult) as per the investigator's judgement.
• . CSU patients only: Patients should have no relevant inducible urticaria trigger
• . Any other skin disease associated with chronic itching that might influence, in the investigator's opinion, the study evaluations and results (e.g., atopic dermatitis, bullous pemphigoid, dermatitis herpetiformis, senile pruritus, etc.) or skin diseases associated with only wheals and no itch e.g asymptomatic dermographism
• . Known or suspected ongoing, chronic or recurrent infectious disease including but not limited to opportunistic infections (e.g., tuberculosis, atypical mycobacterioses, listeriosis or aspergillosis) and/or known positivity for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection.
• . Evidence of an ongoing Hepatitis C infection (defined by the detection at screening of Hepatitis C virus antibodies (anti-HCVAb) and hepatitis C ribonucleic acid (HCV-RNA) in participants who are positive for anti-HCVAb) and/or an ongoing Hepatitis B infection (defined by the detection of Hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or hepatitis B virus (HBV)-DNA at screening; participants who are positive for anti-hepatitis B core (HBc) antibodies but who are negative for antibodies against HBsAg and HBV-DNA can be included into the study if they agree to monitoring for HBsAg and HBV-DNA reactivation).
• . Major surgery within 8 weeks prior to screening or planned surgery for the duration of the study.
