A Single-Arm Exploratory Study of NatureU Histra Dissolve on Chronic Urticaria Symptoms

The study was designed as an exploratory human evaluation of a food product containing active diamine oxidase (DAO). Screening was conducted from August 29, 2024 through October 4, 2024. After investigator review of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 19 adults with chronic urticaria symptoms were enrolled on October 4, 2024. Participants received NatureU Histra Disslove at the study center on Day 0 and took the product continuously for 28 days through Day 28. The protocol specified oral intake of one tablet 20 minutes before a main meal, preferably dinner. Outcome assessments included the Urticaria Control Test (UCT), Urticaria Activity Score 7 (UAS7), and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Day 0, Day 14, and Day 28. Safety monitoring included adverse event collection and laboratory safety assessment. The study was open-label, single-arm, and self-controlled, with no placebo or parallel control group. Analyses were based on participants who completed the study assessments.
