NCT ID NCT06517732

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 107 adults in Russia with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (a chronic skin condition causing painful lumps) who are taking secukinumab as part of their normal care. Researchers will track how many patients see a 55% reduction in disease severity over time, using a standard scoring system. The goal is to see how well the drug works in real-world settings, outside of controlled clinical trials.

secukinumab

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could confirm that secukinumab works well in everyday practice for people with hidradenitis suppurativa, supporting its wider use.

What could go wrong
